Editor's note

Malika Ayane's soulful Milanese jazz-pop

A singer whose voice carries the weight of her Milan upbringing and jazz roots.

For a quick sense of her, try 'Fandango' or 'Believe In Love', they capture that smooth, thoughtful vibe she does so well.

Her 2009 single 'Senza Fare Sul Serio' broke through with a sound that felt both intimate and polished. Songs like 'Sospesa' and 'Tre Cose' blend jazz, soul, and pop in a way that's distinctly Italian yet personal. She's also been vocal about mental health, speaking out against public figures like Silvio Berlusconi in 2013.

She started in Milan clubs, influenced by her father's jazz records. 'Senza Fare Sul Serio' led to a debut album, followed by records like 'Grovigli' and 'Ricreazione' that kept her soulful style. Collaborations with J-Ax and Benjamin Biolay show her range beyond solo work.
