Rising hip-hop artist Mally G (Jamaal Dumas), hailing from the Eastside of South Central Los Angeles, has officially released his highly anticipated debut project, Better Than Before. Growing up in an environment surrounded by gang culture and violence, Mally G faced numerous challenges that shaped his outlook on life and inspired his unique music style. His new project is available now on all major streaming platforms.
Despite the adversity, Mally G has always had the ability to think beyond his circumstances, finding creativity and purpose in everything he did. His drive stems from his close-knit family, particularly his mother, Audrey, who taught him to follow his dreams and never give up.

His father, T, also played a pivotal role in shaping his work ethic, constantly reminding him of the importance of effort in everything he pursued.
It was his older brother, Doc, who introduced Mally G to music, teaching him the fundamentals of beat-making, piano, and songwriting. By age 22, Mally G had already released his first single, “How You Feel,” which generated buzz in the LA rap scene.
