MALIGN20

Many say that Malign20's lyrics, vibe, energy and voice can be compared arguably to the greatest rapper of all time, but this is no cheap 2Pac imitation or industry gimmick which so many labels have attempted to reduplicate 2pac by using voice manipulation in the studio or using archived samples of the legend himself. Although, greatly influenced by 2Pac as Malign respectfully admits, "Who doesn't aspire or want to learn from the best? If there were never a Julias Erving (DR. J) would Michael Jordan the NBA's greatest player of our time exist? Would Kobe Bryant or Lebron James (arguably the best players to date) even exist? Kobe admitted himself to wanting to be the best ever, and to be the best you have to study those before you and strive to achieve the same success and beyond. Michael Jordan was the blueprint and Kobe Bryant is the product of a generation prior. There will never be another MJ and there will never be another 2Pac but Kobe's impact on the game is undeniable! Like that of Kobe Bryant my impact on the game (the music industry game) will also be undeniable!" Without a doubt Malign 20"s music will be the most controversial release of any artist in rap history with the backing of a major record label to give that extra push that he deserves. Hailing from Southside Chicago, one of the hottest cities in the rap game, largely due to the recent success of Roc-a-fella Records Kanye West, Twista's re-emergence onto the music scene, and Common's consistency - this Windy City native will definitely add credibility to a city that is already on fire! The album will include production by Kanye West himself ("Hopes n' Dreams") and is certain to ignite a nation with street conscience lyrics, tales of struggle, and personal hardships. With a similar feel in voice and delivery as that of the late great Tupac Shakur, Malign20's music has been catergorized as "ghostly". The spirit of Tupac Shakur will forever live on but do not sleep on the soon impact of Malign20
