Rising from the static with explosive clarity, 3VAN and Malaki return to the trenches with “FALLOUT,” a new hard-hitting track that refuses to play nice. Produced by Malaki, the track is a high-stakes lyrical blitz that finds both artists locked in, laser-focused, and unapologetically raw—delivering bars like warheads over a tense, cinematic beat.
Right out the gate, “FALLOUT” sets the tone with a chilling intro and brooding production that mirrors the post-apocalyptic title. Malaki’s Griselda-esque instrumental work laces dark guitars with punchy drums, creating a battleground for 3VAN’s signature rapid-fire flow and razor-sharp pen. In the aftermath of back-stabbing and broken bonds, there’s no filler present here—just one high-octane verse and relentless delivery as 3VAN spits on the behalf of both artists like they’ve got something to prove.
3VAN continues to carve out his lane with surgical precision. Known for his gripping storytelling and fearless cadence, the emcee brings a ferocious presence to “FALLOUT,” showing once again why he’s become a staple in the new wave of hustle-conscious lyricists. This track serves as a new chapter in the collaborative narrative painted by Malaki and 3VAN, building off of their introductory composition in “Honeymoon,” a romance-rooted track from the debut EP of Malaki, “Malaki’s Love Tape.” With “Dear George” being the last time Malaki has graced the boards commercially with his production, this taster with the rising 3VAN serves as a sign of things to come as listeners eagerly await his next project, eponymously titled “Malaki.”
This is the second time in recent memory that 3VAN has shaken the scene with uncompromising energy. While previous drops like “ONE WAY OUT” explored survival and resilience, “FALLOUT” feels like the aftershock—where survival has already been achieved, and now it’s about dominance.
With a gritty, underground ethos and zero interest in mainstream polish, “FALLOUT” is a calculated strike from two artists who know exactly what kind of noise they want to make—and how to make it resonate. This is hip-hop from the bunker, forged in smoke, struggle, and lyrical artillery.
For fans of underground rap with teeth, and for those who follow 3VAN’s evolution through sharpened bars and cold production, “FALLOUT” is more than just a song—it’s a warning shot. With more instrumental ammunition from Malaki in the vault, there’s no telling what shock waves these two will send through the industry next.
