Ratchet or Rational with guest Malcolm Favor

Bring back boom bap! Malcolm Favor's alluring charisma and true to the art style couldn't have come at a better moment. While everyone's searching for new waves, he's refreshing the basics to match today's edgy sounds and modern feel. A native Baltimorean and reformed Angelino, Malcolm Favor mixes east coast lyricism with smooth west coast production for a ear-tantalizing blend.

His youth was built around Jackie Chan movies, 7-Eleven Slurpees, and class clown tomfoolery. The rebellious teen years brought phone numbers and headaches as he perused the gallows of love (but he insists it created priceless inspiration).

After surviving college, female ridicule and humiliation, and dry nine to fives, Malcolm skipped town to Los Angeles and never looked back. His super cool carefree demeanor made him an instant attention magnet. That shine landed him production from C-Smitten and matphilly. The uncanny ensemble has developed him into a formidable MC, unique act, and profound jokester. Watch as he dazzles through the so-called rap game.
