His favorite music software program is FruityLoops and Reasons 4.0. With a vivid imagination, creative energy, and a love for drawing, Malik cites his favorite artists as Kanye West, James Brown, Ludacris and Bow Wow. "I first wanted to make my own beats and record my own lyrics after watching others producers, work in studios in Memphis,” says Pharaoh. “My early learning came while hanging out with my father, Quake, in Montana’s studio watching him create beats for Bone Crusher and Memphis rappers 8 Ball and M.J.G. My father later bought some music software for my computer and I started making my own beats. After that, I went out to L.A. to my father and his partner's recording studio Voices. While there, Uncle Pooba and Akil from Jurassic 5 showed me how to work ProTools. In L.A. I met the crew from Los Angeles Skill District.” When asked about his name, Pharaoh remarks, “I was born with it. My father loves jazz and I was named after Pharaoh Saunders, John Coltrane’s last horn player.”
