LG Malique Distills Pure “Living Gold”

From Blytheville, Arkansas, LG Malique is a young promise and a hard-hitting rapper with an intimately emotional wellspring of lyrics and inspiration to share with the world. Since his debut in 2019, he has worked on polishing a unique sound that blends soulful melodies, smooth R&B vibes with unfiltered authenticity, and a deadly flow with a strong southern foundation. Quite recently, Malique launched his Warner Records debut EP “Living Gold”, a deeply personal project about hard work, dedication, and gratitude. 

This 8-track confessional features his now-viral reinterpretation of Lukas Graham’s “7 Years,” which features the original artist. This release capitalizes on the success of his revamped “7 Years,” which has garnered more than 2.7 million streams and 1 million views on YouTube, showcasing his journey from a tough background. Malique first caught the spotlight in 2019 with “Sideline,” which opened doors to his independent EP “100 Days” and later projects such as “Long Story Short” and “Colorblind”. With “Living Gold”, he highlights his artistic evolution and lays the groundwork for a thrilling future in music.

"Living Gold" is an energizing, guided journey through personal growth, struggle, and resilience. With a mix of love, ambition, and the harsh realities of life, Malique dives deep into his experiences, reflecting on his path from hardship to self-discovery with the song, “Baptize,” perfectly capturing his longing for transformation.

Some standout tracks that showcase the EP's lyrical depth are “I Know,” “Lie,” and “Acknowledgement.” In “I Know,” Malique lays bare the grit it takes to rise from the bottom. It’s raw and honest, turning pain into motivation and struggle into achievement. Then there's “Lie,” where he tackles betrayal and the tough truths of relationships. The mix of vulnerability and a tough exterior shows just how much he’s grown. Lastly, “Acknowledgement” gives us a glimpse into his introspective side, as he wrestles with expectations and the weight of others’ opinions. His reflections on sacrifice and the need for recognition hit home, revealing the emotional toll of his journey.

"Living Gold" is a heartfelt narrative of resilience and self-discovery. Malique’s lyrical skill shines as he shares his story, inviting listeners to connect with their own experiences.
