There wasn't exactly a place in the landscape for an artist like GoldLink-until GoldLink madeone. Raised in and around Washington, D.C., the rapper (born D'Anthony Carlos in 1993)started writing music in his late teens, staking out an uncharted space at the intersection ofhip-hop, house, electronic music, and R&B-a colourful, head-spinning sound that made himstand out instantly.
In 2014, he released his debut mixtape, The God Complex; the next year, he made the XXLFreshman Class. Buoyed by a mentoring credit from Def Jam co-founder Rick Rubin, AndAfter That, We Didn't Talk followed in 2015, striking a balance between narrative grit and asparkling, effervescent sound. In 2017, he released At What Cost, featuring theGrammy-nominated "Crew."
Alongside MCs and producers like Anderson . Paak, KAYTRANADA, Flume, and Chance theRapper, GoldLink's sound represents an ever-broadening sense of what hip-hop and dancemusic can do, imagining a borderless club world where affiliations of genre and region bow tothe music's overall feel: not rap, not electronic, but what GoldLink has playfully called "futurebounce"—and he's making it right now.
