Now at almost 30 he reacts to his success and accomplishments in a heartwarming end to the track. Musically, "Seven Years" begins with mood-laced dreamy piano under LG Malique's effortless rhythms. The track also features a guest appearance by the song's originator Lukas Graham who lends his talents in singing the hook. LG Malique has created a fresh masterpiece of emotion and soul that is resonating with listeners across the globe.
