Hailing from Berkeley, California, Malik is the biracial son of a white mother and a black father. Fueled by a determination to succeed, Malik became the first child in his family, and the only one of his friends, to attend college. Though he'll graduate from the prestigious University of California at Berkeley soon, Malik isn't all work, no play. His obsession with music has helped establish him as a popular Bay Area club/party DJ.
