MALAA JOINS FORCES WITH RNB LEGEND JEREMIH ON NEW GENRE-FUSING TRACK ‘ALL IN’

 Malaa’s high-energy anthems fuse with Jeremih’s soulful vocals, creating their unstoppable track ‘All In’  that bridges the worlds of house and R&B

This music Friday brings one of the most exciting collaborations of the year as French hard-techno DJ Malaa teams up with R&B legend Jeremih on their new track ‘All In’. In this unlikely blend of genres, Malaa’s talent for pushing the boundaries of music shines through, as his traditionally heavier electronic production manages to blend seamlessly with Jeremih’s iconic vocals. This release brings an element of production that will appeal to both Malaa’s OG fan base as well as wide-ranging audiences of R&B, house, and pop - with a synthy intro that builds to a hard-hitting electronic drop, all layered amongst a melodic string of vocals. This drop stands as a fresh new chapter amid the masked DJ’s ongoing string of back-to-back releases with his Alter Ego, bringing a new landmark of genre-defying innovation to his discography.

After a massive year for the Parisian-born artist, which included career-defining sets at Coachella and the release of 14 hit singles from Tchami’s Confession Records, this collaboration with the ‘Birthday Sex’ singer marks yet another career milestone within a jam-packed year of achievements. After connecting over the past year and discovering their unexpected musical synergy, the two have been able to deliver a masterful work with ‘All In’ - in which each of their respective musical influences provides a tasteful balance to the other. Malaa’s signature hard-hitting techno energy presents itself on the track with a more melodic twist, blending into Jeremih’s classic R&B style with ease. The result is a genre-bridging masterpiece that will take fans by surprise and is sure to dominate playlists worldwide.

Jeremih rose to prominence in 2009 with his breakout hit, ‘Birthday Sex’. From that moment, his soulful voice and undeniable charisma captured audiences worldwide. What started as a chart-topping debut quickly evolved into an impressive career filled with gold and platinum-certified hits. Over the years, Jeremih has seamlessly collaborated with a wide range of artists across pop, rap, and electronic music. With over 15,4 million monthly listeners, Jeremih’s influence spans multiple genres, making him the perfect addition to Malaa’s latest track.

Malaa, a DJ and producer, burst onto the scene in 2015, captivating audiences with his enigmatic persona concealed behind a balaclava. Playing off his anonymity, he established himself by releasing music on Tchami's Confession label, starting with his debut EP, Illicit, in 2016. This was followed by his immensely popular single, Notorious, and since then, Malaa has shown no signs of slowing down.

 

In addition to maintaining a steady flow of releases, Malaa has curated remarkable mixtapes under the title Illegal Mixtape and collaborated with Tchami for the highly acclaimed project, No Redemption. Known for his skillful remixes, Malaa has taken on notable tracks like In the End (2023) by Linkin Park.

 

Malaa's talent has led him to perform at numerous prestigious global festivals, including Coachella, Ultra, Tomorrowland, Creamfields, HARD, Electric Zoo, and EDC. These performances have solidified his reputation as an exceptional live act.

 

In 2022, Malaa achieved yet another milestone with the release of his debut album, Don Malaa. The album featured collaborations with esteemed artists such as Ghostface Killah, Fivio Foreign, Tchami, DJ Snake, and more. The success of the album was celebrated with the Don Malaa Tour, where Malaa mesmerized audiences with sold-out shows at renowned venues like the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles and Radius in Chicago.

 

In 2023, Malaa's journey soared to new heights when he delivered a standout performance at the legendary Coachella Music Festival. His ability to defy expectations and push the boundaries of electronic music continues to solidify his status as one of the industry's most innovative and captivating artists.

The Lucid EP artwork hosts a photograph of corals, captured by Daniel Nicholson. Corals are essential marine invertebrates that form the backbone of coral reefs, supporting biodiversity by offering habitat and protection to marine species. They rely on a symbiotic relationship with photosynthetic algae called zooxanthellae, which provide the energy necessary for coral growth and calcification. However, in Australia, the Crown of Thorns Starfish (Acanthaster planci) is causing severe damage to coral reefs by preying on the coral polyps, leading to widespread coral decline. The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (@gbrmarinepark) is actively addressing this threat through science-based strategies, such as targeted starfish culling and coral restoration initiatives, to preserve reef health and resilience.
