Jamaal Talib Henry, "Maaly Raw", is a music producer based in Philadelphia. Best known for his work with fellow Philadelphia rap rockstar Lil Uzi Vert, Maaly Raw’s catchy-as-hell tag is like a spark to set off a giant rocket: his production hurls songs forward, their momentum deftly guided by his wickedly weird and winding melodies, and drums that at once skitter across and barrel down your insides. Take, for example, his work across Uzi’s debut album Luv Is Rage 2, on fan-favorite tracks like the brain-rattling “444+222” and the very emotional “Dark Queen." And if you dive a little deeper into his catalog, you’ll discover his drum-heavy, topsy-turvy sound backing songs from today’s biggest acts out of Philly, including Meek Mill, PnB Rock, and the current rising star of the city’s underground, Kur. Maaly Raw's clientele includes Lil Uzi Vert, Dave East, Quavo, The Weeknd, G Herbo, French Montana, Kur, PnB Rock, Rich The Kid, Famous Dex and more.
