MAALI

Born in Germany, with roots in Kenya and Bosnia, MAALI  creates music that bridges cultures, languages, and generations. Her sound blends soul, afropop, spoken word, and modern pop.

With over 40 live performances across Berlin, Cologne, and Nairobi – from intimate unplugged shows to stadium stages like UEFA EURO 2024 – MAALI has made her presence known. She is part of the renowned Sol Generation collective (founded by Sauti Sol ), and has been nominated multiple times as Best Newcomer for her powerful and unfiltered storytelling.

Her music is rooted in lived experience. From racism in childhood friendships to post-migrant realities and inherited trauma. She turns pain into power, silence into sound, and identity into resistance and joy.
