Today, Arkansas raised and Atlanta based artist LG Malique returns with “Vision,” a gospel streaked single that hits with the force of a whispered prayer and the urgency of a man determined to change his story. Released through Warner Records, the new record shows exactly why Malique has become one of the most emotionally transparent and uplifting new voices in rap.
From the first note, “Vision” feels sacred. Warm piano keys guide Malique’s voice as he moves from a quiet, vulnerable murmur into a soaring cry that feels ripped straight from the center of his chest. The production is subtle and soul anchored, but the vocal performance is the heartbeat. When the choir behind him sings “Take my soul,” Malique answers with a moment so raw it freezes the air. “Dont take it away from me Lord I got a daughter and she be looking forward to play with me. Father not just yet I am tryna build a generation where we do not live check to check.”
It is the kind of line that stops you cold because there is no performance in it. It is lived experience. It is a young father refusing to let circumstance define his family’s future. It is the reason people have gravitated toward Malique’s voice from the beginning.
LG Malique Continues To Drop Fire
“Vision” is a mission statement rooted in Malique’s self defined “Living Gold” ethos, a mindset built around turning pain into purpose and transforming hardships into inspirational fuel. “This song is me owning my scars my faith and my vision,” he explains. “It is not about where I came from anymore it is about where I am leading us next. I got something to live for now.”
This release follows “Ion Know Why,” a powerful record that found him confronting betrayal and fake love while still offering grace. Fans watched that track come to life on TikTok LIVE with his baby daughter in his lap. It was one of those moments that reminded everyone why Malique connects so deeply. He lets people in. He lets the music be a space for processing, healing, and rebuilding.
Before these singles, Malique’s ascent gained real momentum with his Carved in Gold EP. That project showed critics and fans that he was not here to fit into the usual rap template. BET praised the project by saying “LG Malique paints a picture of his resilience,” while Sound and Vision highlighted his uplifting and positive energy in a genre often clouded by empty boasting.
Carved in Gold only amplified what Living Gold had already set in motion. In 2024, his viral remake of “Seven Years” crossed seventeen million streams and drew coverage from Billboard, Notion, Earmilk, Wonderland, and more. His Gold Mic Series also spotlighted his charisma, confidence, and emotional command as a performer.
But to understand why “Vision” feels so powerful, you have to understand the artist behind it.
LG Malique carries an expressive tenor that cuts through noise because it is rooted in lived truth. Raised in Blytheville, Arkansas, he grew up listening to Alicia Keys, Usher, and Fantasia in the house, balanced with Yo Gotti and Three 6 Mafia bumping out of his uncle’s Impala. Those influences helped shape the duality in his music today. Soulful R and B melodies on one side and gritty trap confessionals on the other.
Early projects like 100 Days and Colorblind helped him build an underground following. But everything shifted with 2024’s Living Gold EP and his viral reimagining of Lukas Graham’s “Seven Years.”
From there, his follow up Carved in Gold received critical praise for its balanced storytelling. Faith, struggle, pain, perseverance. Malique delivered it all with sincerity that set him apart from his peers. Today, he stands as one of the most transparent, emotionally honest, and uplifting new artists in the game, constantly pushing rap into more soulful and human territory.
That foundation makes “Vision” feel like the next step in a bigger story. It is not just a record about survival. It is a declaration from a man who realizes the future is bigger than the pain that shaped him. Malique is leading with purpose, with fatherhood on his mind, and with a voice that resonates because he refuses to hide his truth.
As new listeners discover LG Malique through “Vision,” they will find an artist who is not chasing trends. He is building a legacy rooted in vulnerability, resilience, and the belief that music can actually heal something in the people who need it most.
If this is the next chapter, LG Malique is only getting started.
