The Sweetest of It All, MaLLy’s latest full-length offering and collaboration produced entirely by Last Word is a 14 track opus of personal and breezy expressions over a lush, colorful and futuristic-soul soundscape from the 70’s and 80’s with a light touch of boom bap nostalgia. Throughout the album, MaLLy calmly explores and identifies the layers of his humanity through the lens of joy, resilience, and peace.
The south Minneapolis rapper confidently champions true liberation, his Blackness and sobriety as some of the Sweetest elements that the Creator has gifted him in this life. MaLLy’s wisdom of years past, smooth flows, subtle wordplay and succinct content meld naturally with Last Word's alluring production on the space age sonics of "New Year, New Wave" or funky-organ laced "Dreaming" and the moody and misty "100 Heartbreaks."
Whether the emcee is opening his heart or attempting to put it back together, in solidarity or comfortable in solitude, it might be safe to say that MaLLy is reinvigorated and focused with his most purposeful content and body of work to date.
