Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today’s playlist is curated by Music Library student assistant Eliana (class of 2027) and features songs by singer-songwriter Malcolm Todd.
Malcolm Todd
One of my favorite artists right now is Malcolm Todd, an up-and-coming American singer and songwriter whose music is a blend of alternative, pop, and R&B. His music creates a unique sound and heavily uses elements of electric guitar, violins, trumpets, layered vocals, and more, telling stories of love, insecurities, and self-discovery.
Malcolm first gained popularity after two of his songs, “Art House” and “Roomates,” gained a lot of traction on TikTok in 2023. At the time, Malcolm had only released a few songs, such as an EP (extended play) called “Demos Before Prom” and a few singles. Since then, Malcolm has released a number of singles and a couple of albums, including “Sweet Boy” and “Malcolm Todd.” One of my favorite things about Malcolm Todd is his music videos. In some, like “Roomates,” he is just messing around with friends, while others, like “Cheer Me On,” contain just a single shot of Malcolm showcasing his emotions.
Malcolm Todd – “Chest Pain (I Love)”
Malcolm Todd – “Walk to Class”
Malcolm Todd ft. Omar Apollo – “Bleed”

This year I have really gotten into listening to both of these artists.

Kali Uchis is a Colombian-American artist celebrated for her sultry, versatile voice, blending R&B, soul, reggaeton, and pop in her music, often with themes of love, self-empowerment, and cultural identity. I wanted to share some of my favorite songs from both artists, as well as some of the collaborations they have done in the past.
