Malik Naim is an artist and poet who was raised by converts in the East side of America. In 2007, Malik picked up a pen and never put it down. By the end of his seventh-grade year, he had made over two thousand songs and poems. While each one lingered on to his childish ideals of a world he only saw as beautiful, it was in 2010 when this view of life altered. The passing of his grandfather changed many things about him, and it shifted his art to embody not only life but also death. Several years after the tragedy of losing his grandfather, he lost his grandmother in 2017, leading him to reinvent himself through writing, composing and performing.
