Her powerful vocal performances often leave audiences captivated, and Melina can be seen regularly sharing the stage with other artists in the R&B and Hip Hop scene over the years. Her collaboration with Dublin rap duo MangoXMathman in 2018 on their remix ' 'Heartbreaks and Promises', is a huge crowd hit, and continues to garner new supporters for the young singer. Melina has also been one of the featured artists in the Irish Women in Harmony group, their charity cover of 'Dreams' amassing over 17.7 million radio impacts, reaching No.1 in the Irish homegrown charts (the first ever No.1 by an Irish female act), and raising over €215,000 for SAFE Ireland in 2020.

​

Melina's newest single 'No Better Place', premiered by Hotpress, is a prelude to the singer's highly anticipated debut project expected to be announced in late 2021. The track is a touching tribute to Dublin City, featuring Malone's trademark soulful vocals and a soaring R&B track production by RVSTLESS.
