Kortney Jamaal Pollard, better known as Mali Music, has built a reputation for heartfelt vocal delivery, thoughtful songwriting, and a versatile sound that crosses gospel, R&B, and contemporary soul. He first gained national attention through BET Music Matters in 2011, a platform that helped launch his major-label debut Mali Is... (2014). A collaborative spirit, Mali Music later earned a Grammy for Movin' On (with Jonathan McReynolds) in 2021, further cementing his status in the gospel and soul communities. His latest studio release God Be Praised arrived in 2023, continuing his tradition of intimate storytelling and uplifting production.
Beyond the studio, Mali Music remains an active live performer with a growing catalog of hits and deep cuts that resonate with fans of gospel, R&B, and inspirational pop. He continues to release music that reflects personal faith, artistry, and resilience.
