Malachi Jude is a rapper born and raised in Gary, Indiana, whose journey into music began in 2022. Growing up in a city known for both its struggles and its resilience, Malachi was surrounded by real-life stories that would later shape his sound and perspective. From an early point, music stood out to him not just as entertainment, but as something deeper—an outlet, a refuge, and a form of expression that felt both powerful and personal.
While he started rapping in 2022, Malachi didn’t fully commit to mastering his craft until 2024, when he began taking the rap game seriously.

This shift marked a turning point in his development as an artist. He started studying the art of music with intention, sharpening his delivery, understanding rhythm and emotion, and learning how to translate real experiences into authentic records. That dedication quickly began to show in his growth and confidence as a performer.

Malachi has since stepped onto the stage for several live performances, using each opportunity to connect with audiences and refine his presence. He has also collaborated with a number of rising artists, including L A Pa$to, GBG Capone, Dwin, and others, building relationships and expanding his reach within the underground music scene. These collaborations reflect his openness to creative exchange and his belief in growing alongside other upcoming musicians.

What truly drew Malachi into the music industry was his deep respect for music as an art form. To him, music is peaceful, universal, and endlessly adaptable—capable of matching any mood, emotion, or state of mind.

When creating, he follows instinct rather than trends, choosing beats that resonate with him on a soulful level. If the beat doesn’t speak to him, he won’t force the song. That spiritual connection to sound is at the core of his creative process.

Beyond passion, Malachi’s motivation runs deeper than personal success. Music represents a way out of generational cycles and limited options. He refuses to accept a future confined to survival or a lifelong 9-to-5 routine.

For him, music is mandatory—it’s a mission to break curses, create opportunity, and help his family and friends truly live rather than just get by. Through dedication, authenticity, and purpose, Malachi Jude is building more than a career—he’s building a legacy.
