I just discovered a young Zambian star named King Malo on YouTube, and I’m impressed. He’s doing fantastically well in the music industry, blending our Ghanaian style of rapping with his own unique flair.
I think King Malo has great potential and could take his career to the next level with a collaboration with our very own giant Sarkodie.
African music is evolving at an exciting pace, with young talents emerging from every corner of the continent, bringing fresh sounds and creative energy. Recently, I stumbled upon a young Zambian rapper named King Malo on YouTube, and I must say—I’m seriously impressed!
King Malo is not just another rapper; he is blending Ghanaian-style rap with his own unique Zambian flair, creating a sound that feels both familiar and fresh. His flow, delivery, and confidence on the mic rival some of the best in the game, and he is quickly carving a space for himself in the African rap scene.

What Makes King Malo Stand Out?
With so many artists trying to make a name for themselves, what sets King Malo apart?
- A Unique Blend of Cultures – His rap style carries strong influences from Ghana’s hiplife and Azonto-era rap, yet it remains distinctively Zambian. This fusion makes his sound appealing to a wider audience across Africa.
- Sharp Lyricism and Delivery – King Malo doesn’t just rap—he tells stories, delivers clever punchlines, and keeps listeners engaged with his confident, high-energy flow.
- A Fresh Voice in African Hip-Hop – While many young artists follow trends, King Malo is building his own signature sound, proving that he’s in the industry for the long haul.
Why King Malo and Sarkodie Need to Collaborate
As I listened to King Malo’s music, I couldn’t help but think of one artist who could take his career to the next level—Sarkodie.
Sarkodie is an African rap legend. With multiple awards, international recognition, and collaborations with global stars, he has solidified his position as one of the greatest rappers on the continent. His ability to support and elevate emerging artists has been seen in the past with talents like Kwesi Arthur, Black Sherif, and Strongman.

A King Malo x Sarkodie collaboration would be a powerful fusion of West and Southern African hip-hop, bridging two rap cultures and showcasing African talent on a whole new level. Imagine a track where Sarkodie drops his signature rapid-fire Twi bars, and King Malo counters with his Zambian fire—this would be an instant hit!
In the meantime, I’ll be following his journey closely, hoping that one day, we get to hear the King Malo x Sarkodie track that Africa deserves!
