New Music, Tomboys & The Industry: Malika (Hamzaa)

In this episode, we’re joined by singer and songwriter Malika (Hamza) for a raw, funny and deeply honest conversation about music, mental health, identity and becoming who you really are.
Malika opens up about growing up with depression, ADHD and anxiety, and how songwriting became the only way she could truly express what was going on in her mind.
We talk about dropping out of school, going viral online, getting signed to a major label, and the reality of being pushed to become someone you’re not. From navigating record deals and creative control to choosing independence and making her first album on her own terms, Malika shares what the music industry really looks like behind the scenes.
She also speaks openly about sexuality, realising she liked girls from a very young age, trying to fit in by dating boys, being a tomboy, and eventually understanding that she’s a lesbian. With honesty and humour, she reflects on coming out, family, culture, and learning to stop pretending.
