Who is Maleficium?
Who is Maleficium?
Maleficium is an artist, producer, and rapper from Nashville, Tennessee. After falling in love with production and obsession over one day getting to work in the studio with his favorite artists, Maleficium signed up for audio production school to try to climb the ladder and one day break into the industry. But soon after committing to school, he got tired of just making beats to practice and waiting to jump through all the right hoops. He realized the only person who is gonna get his music into the world would be himself, so he decided that's what he would do.
Maleficium started writing and recording songs trying to figure out what the vision of his first mixtape would be, at the same time he was balencing the life of a full-time student and a part-time barista. A week and a half after the manager that had been working at this local coffee shop for fourteen years was fired by the real estate company that bought out the place, Maleficium was lost. He knew he wanted to do music but was drowning in an unbalanceable schedule, he didn't know what to do but knew that something had to change.
The next morning, thirty minutes before he was supposed to clock in to work, Maleficium got a call from the regional manager of the coffee shop. The new manager had sent a TikTok Maleficium made on company time to the owners of the real estate parent company, and they balled their fists up and their faces turned red with anger. They called the regional manager, who was in the middle of single-handedly running the kitchen of the brand-new, understaffed, and underplanned location, and told him that he needed to fire Maleficium and Conquest, who also appeared in the TikTok, immediately. The shop was already undergoing staffing issues due to the general vibe going downhill, which caused the place to close early three days in a row, coincidentally, this is also the same amount of time Jesus was dead for. This firing was an awakening for Maleficium, and not only gave him the time he needed to record the new album, but also the fire and hatred to fuel the artistic direction.

BLOOD MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE
Febuary 2025
The first full-length album from Maleficium. This album brought a more polished and concise feel to Maleficium's style with both production and flow. Beloved collaborators such as Conquest, LilTeapot, and C-Dawg all make their respective appearances, with a few new guests dropping a couple features as well... Boasting 11 tracks, BMLE explores different moods, styles, and ideas with a project that's a little weirder, a little more political, and a lot more fire than anything the artist has put out to date.

In between major project releases, Maleficium released two standalone singles in early 2025.
2025 (feat. C-Dawg and LilTeapot)
2025 (feat. C-Dawg and LilTeapot)
A collaboration track with C-Dawg and LilTeapot. This was a branch into a more traditional rap sound in an odd case of an artist departing into a less experimental sound. Nevertheless, the track bangs and was also a diss track aimed at Playboi Carti poking fun at him for not yet dropping his album (which has since been released).
V-BUCKS AND VAPES
V-BUCKS AND VAPES
A Maleficium solo single. This catchy track samples a popular meme and turns the premise into a relatable, vibey song that we can all bust it down sexual style to.

December 2024
About a month and a half after Maleficium made his musical debut, he decided it was time to release a Christmas Special. He got the whole gang together to celebrate the holiday the way you should, with your friends having fun making the hardest Christmas Rap mixtape of all time. Maleficium and friends take shots at Rudolph, consider Mrs. Claus' dark side, and remix holiday classics for a fresh take on Christmas music.
80 PROOF LEAN
80 PROOF LEAN
October 2024
The debut of Maleficium. This mixtape was the brainchild of ambition, excitement, and recent unemployment. A story is told through the eight tracks of a man who loses his job and descends into madness, only to realize that his purpose lies in making fire beats and rap songs with his buddies. Maleficium comes in hot and pulls no punches, taking direct shots at Nick Mira, the boss who fired him, and his own mental health in an experimental, medium-concept, emotional roller coaster joyride of a mixtape.
