Malaika Hailey was born in Nairobi, Kenya and raised in small town Manitoba and now calls Calgary her home. Music, specifically singing, is her essential outlet. Singing brings her peace, clarity and purpose. Malaika pulls inspiration for her music from all life and light around her. She is inspired by her loved ones and the challenges she faces with them. Her writing is often motivated by an overwhelming sense of gratitude or grace; as well as frustrations and feelings of hopelessness. She believes that to live a whole life you must lead with love always, find balance and pursue elevation in all things. No one soul is like another and she finds that infinitely encouraging. As Malaika grows through life she aspires to share her voice and songs with anyone who will receive it with open arms. She aims to heal, uplift and awaken people with her gift of song.
