MalikONE's Companies
Temple Of Hiphop Los Angeles, California US Global Advocate / Kultural Specialist Administration
About me:
MalikONE, a recognized official Hiphop Kultural Specialist, Advocate, Emcee, Political Scientist, Architect and founding member of The Temple Of Hiphop with “the Teacha” KRSONE, Chuck D., Professor Z., Kool Herc and Afrika Bammbaataa, is a product of Chicago’s south side 40th and Indiana and Jeffery Manor.
Born and raised in Chicago during the 1970s, Malik, like many was afflicted by the same structural violence (sickness, hate, ignorance and poverty) choking the inner cities across the country. In 1979, concluding the divorce of his parents, for six months out of the year, Malik relocated to the East Coast (Phila, New York) with his Mother and siblings, where he was introduced to the pioneers, teachas and the core requisites of early Hiphop Kulture. Consequently, in 1986 after the all too common direct violence, took the life of a childhood friend (Tyrone Bufkin) in Chicago, and the 1987 wrongful incarceration of his first cousin (Keith Dean) in Perris, California; the influence of B- Boys, Graffiti Art, Emcees and DJ’s began to take root and offer more guidance and direction.
Channeling their spirituality, ideologies, theories, principles and frustrations into a creative consciousness (HIPHOP) capable of transforming subjects and objects in an attempt to change and / or describe ones inner being and environment, fueled Malik’s pursuit for knowledge of self, awareness and a productive lifestyle. Exposed to the teachings and lessons of the Torah, Gospel, Al Quran and mentors like Kwame Nkruma, Patrice Lamumba, Malcolm X, MLK Jr., the Infiniti lessons (Zulu Nation); prepared him for his challenge to face re-socialization in the Armed Forces.
In 1989 during that pursuit, while Hiphop’s “conscious” rap movement broke loose, re-shaping and addressing the mindset of many inner city and suburban youth, he volunteered and served active duty in the U. S. Navy, as a Hospital Corpsman, during the “Panamanian Invasion”, and the first Gulf War. His affiliations with the “stop the violence” movement and H.E.A.L., motivated his excelling with honors and distinction at the Naval School of Health Sciences, and Naval Hospitals Bethesda MD Balboa in San Diego, CA and Philadelphia Hospital and Main Base, he began to overstand the spiritual political economic and social dysfunctions from a national and international perspective. In 1993, upon honorable discharge, he returned home to Chicago to prepare for “victory over the streets!”
Since then, after raising a family, graduating from college, with an emphasis in Political Science(international relations) a lengthy list of credentials, associations and accomplished speaking appearances he has contributed to organizations such as: The Institute Without Walls (David Dubois), New Panther Vanguard Movement (Los Angeles), the Pan African Association, A.N.S.W.E.R., U.N.E.S.C.O., M.U.N., production and construction of Hiphop’s Preservation Society (TOHH), The Temple of Hiphop Radio Show (L.A.), numerous KRS-ONE albums, tours and lectures, Malcolm X Festival (L.A.), African Market Place, W. Grant Still Art Museum, USC, RCC, Temple U (Phila), U of MD, UDC, Chicago State, Stanford University, and the United Nations.
Malik has successfully forged a righteous mature personal character, skilled spokesmaship and a unique life experience based on commitment, discipline and responsibility into a fellowship based on freedom, Independence and decriminalizing Hiphop’s public image. A chief architect and advocate of Hiphop Appreciation Week and the principles and processes culminating in the drafting, ratifying and presentation of the Hiphop Declaration of Peace at the United Nations during Hiphop Appreciation Week 2001, Malik ONE offers our youth a genuine resonating perspective on building Hiphop’s Common spirit.

Report: U.S. Military Spending in Haiti More Than Triples Assistance to Haitian Gov’t
The Haitian government is appealing to the international community to improve the earthquake relief effort as the confirmed death toll is now near 170,000. On Wednesday, Haitian President Rene Preval said he is thankful for the international assistance, but said it needs “better coordination.” Preval’s comments come as the Associated Press reports his government is receiving less than a penny for each dollar the United States spends on aid efforts in Haiti. Thirty-three cents of every dollar goes to U.S. military aid, over three times the nine cents spent on food.

Stress is like a violin string. If there's no tension, there's no music. But if the string is too tight, it breaks. You want to find the right level of tension for you--the level that makes harmony in your life.

Three men went into the jungle on different occasions and saw a chameleon. "A chameleon is red," said the first man. "No a chameleon is green," said the second man. "Nonsense, a chameleon is brown," said the third man. Those who disagree about the nature of God are like these three men.
-Hindu Teaching Story
Blessed was the hour that you saw me. I was dead and you gave me a new life. You sought me like a mother; I shunned you like a fool. Happy is he who espies Your face, O you whom pure spirits praise. How I reproached you with many silly words.
-Rumi, "Mathnawi"
I don't know what the future holds; but I do know who holds the future.
