TAP IN WITH: Maliek Miller (Huntington Beach | ISSUE 10)

UNDRGRND Magazine | March 19th, 2024

Maliek Miller (Huntington Beach, CA ) is a 26-year-old artist with a broad range of creative talents. The Leo was born in #Colorado, but moved to Southern California early on, where he graduated high school and eventually LA Film School. Maliek mixes rap with deep lyrical melodies, often promoting spirituality and mental health in his lyrics. He’s been making music for over six years now, and last year dropped a seven-track album—Sonic Epiphany—along with a handful of singles. His most recent song, “Think Of All The Ways,” is his first official release of 2024.

Maliek credits artists PARTYNEXTDOOR, KYLE & Johnny Rain as some of his major musical inspirations, but shouts out Tate Mcrae as his current dream collab. His go-to producer/engineer is Aidan Payne, known in the industry as “PYNES”. An interesting UNDRGRND first, Maliek opened for Joe Budden at Los Globos in Los Angeles back in 2015…high school vibes.

Away from music, Maliek is an AAU Basketball coach at "Team Quachro." His favorite restaurant is Mrs. Fish, and he enjoys writing movies and comics in his downtime.
