Ever since GoldLink released “On&On” back in 2013, he’s had music heads all over watching everything he does. From The God Complex project to his impressive take on Kendrick’s “The Heart pt.2,” people have finally started noticing the DMV rep.
Today, GoldLink reveals some even better news –announcing that himself and legendary Rick Rubin are working on a collaborative project.
Although no details have been released to public as of yet, the two were recently featured VSCO’s new release – where Rubin said GoldLink is about to “move hip hop forward in new, unexpected ways.”
GoldLink adds a new chapter to Rick’s storied musical legacy. Instrumental to hip hop’s beginnings, Rick is now invested in seeing it advance. He says, “GoldLink connects progressive rap styles with cutting edge dance music. He bridges the electronic DJ culture with hip-hop in a way we haven’t heard before.” It’s GoldLink’s ability “to move hip hop forward in new, unexpected ways” that Rick says drew him to GoldLink’s style, in addition to his voice and charisma.
For GoldLink, working with Rick Rubin “has opened the floodgates of creativity so wide” that he feels there are no limits. He’s striving to be bigger and working to “restlessly perfect” the quality of his music. As Rick says, “If it’s good, it’s undeniable.”
