Summer may have ended, but the heat is far from cooling down with the release of Maleek Berry’s latest single, 'Lately,' featuring Ruger. The South London-born Afro-R&B sensation is laying down the vibes for his upcoming album, If Only Love Was Enough, and if this track is any indication, we’re in for something special. With 'Lately,' Maleek Berry is setting the stage for what promises to be a standout project in the weeks ahead.
Fresh off performing at AfroCarnival in New York and making front-row appearances at Skepta’s MAINS LFW runway show, Maleek’s momentum shows no signs of slowing down. His recent experiences are clearly reflected in his music, and 'Lately' is no exception. With its laid-back beat and smooth vibes, the track delivers an effortless blend of relaxation and feel-good energy—setting the perfect mood for what's to come.
Ruger’s contribution is equally impactful. Known for his signature smooth vocals, the Nigerian star seamlessly blends into the track, elevating the melodic flow with every note. His voice complements Maleek Berry's style, enhancing the laid-back, feel-good energy that defines 'Lately' from start to finish. Together, the duo delivers a track that’s destined to become an anthem for easy-going, summer-like vibes, no matter the season.
If you’re looking to get a taste of what Maleek Berry has in store, 'Lately' is a must-listen. Check out the music video below:

It's got me so hyped for his upcoming album. The way he blends Afrobeats with R&B is pure magic. Speaking of great music, I've been loving the artists on BMG's roster lately. Their bmg customer service team is always so helpful when I have questions about new releases. Can't wait to see what other surprises Maleek has in store for us!
