What happens when a powerhouse vocalist trades industry expectations for cultural rhythm? In this episode, I sit down with Malik Davage — former contestant on The Voice, a standout on 106 & Park, and now the electrifying frontman of one of the hottest go-go bands on the East Coast.
We get real about his music journey: the pressure of televised fame, how go-go music reignited his purpose, and what it truly takes to evolve as an artist in a world addicted to instant fame. Malik shares the highs, the heartbreaks, and the hustle and he does it with raw honesty, vocal runs, and a little DC bounce.
If you love nostalgic R&B, the culture of go-go, and stories of artistic reinvention, this interview is your backstage pass to something unforgettable.
