In 2010, Malcolm teamed with his former "Gigantic" co-star Tony Oller to create great music together and subsequently formed the pop/rap music duo MKTO. In March 2012 they proudly signed with Columbia Records and have completed their first album. Their debut song "Thank You" and music video was released worldwide on January 4, 2013.

Malcolm spent the first eleven months of his life in foster care before being adopted by the Kelleys. His sister, Sydney, was adopted by the family two months later. He enjoys playing soccer and basketball, despite his small stature. He keeps up with his favorite basketball team, the Lakers, and politics, even getting involved as class Treasurer at his middle school.
