24kGoldn — Coco. An exclusive live performance for Vevo DSCVR ARTISTS TO WATCH 2021, an annual series highlighting those that are shaping the future of music.
It’s safe to say 24kGoldn was born to shine. His first name actually IS Golden, how’s that for starters? What’s more, at the age of 20, the alt-rapper has already gone platinum with “Mood,” his insanely catchy track with pal iann dior. As the story goes, the chart-topper was made offhand during a Call of Duty gaming sesh with Golden, iann, and producer pals Keegan Bach and Omer Fedi. “It was the first guitar riff that Omer played," Golden has said, «and without even thinking I started singing, “Why you always in a mood? Omer was like, ‘that’s fire.‘” It may sound like lightning in a bottle, but the sunny San Francisco native’s success comes as no surprise to Soundcloud users. Three years ago the indie community was showing love to Golden’s early and strong efforts “Valentino” and “Ballin’ Like Shareef,” the latter an eye-wink reference to both Shaquille O’Neill’s son and their Gen Z tribe. Where’d the musicality come from? Goldens mom tells a story of her son frequently using chopsticks as drumsticks on an upside-down yellow bucket. After that he did time in a local choir. In high school, an older friend told him about the availability of a studio. “The more music I made, the better it got, and the more people wanted to hear it.” Now his tracks have A-listers such as Justin Bieber and J Balvin hopping on remixes. The pandemic precluded a full band participating in our Artist To Watch performances, but that didn’t affect the musics energy. Golden and his pink-haired pal brought plenty of fire. Enjoy these live takes of “Mood” and “Coco.”

Lyrics:
I aint worried bout nothin
I aint wearin na nada
Im sittin pretty, impatient, but I know you gotta
Put in them hours, Imma make it harder
Im sending pic after picture, Imma get you fired
I know youre always on the night shift
But I cant stand these nights alone
And I dont need no explanation
Cause baby, youre the boss at home
You dont gotta go to work, work, work, work, work, work, work
But you gotta put in work, work, work, work, work, work, work
You dont gotta go to work, work, work, work, work, work, work
Let my body do the work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work
We can work from home, oh, oh, oh oh
We can work from home, oh, oh, oh oh
Lets put it into motion
Ima give you a promotion
Ill make it feel like a vacay, turn the bed into an ocean
We dont need nobody, I just need your body
Nothin but sheets in between us, aint no getting off early
I know youre always on the night shift
But I cant stand these nights alone
And I dont need no explanation
Cause baby, youre the boss at home
You dont gotta go to work, work, work, work, work, work, work
But you gotta put in work, work, work, work, work, work, work
You dont gotta go to work, work, work, work, work, work, work
Let my body do the work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work
We can work from home, oh, oh, oh-oh
We can work from home, oh, oh, oh-oh
Girl, go to work for me
Can you make it clap, no hands for me?
Take it to the ground, pick it up for me
Look back at it all over me
Put in work like my timesheet
She ride it like a 63
Ima buy her no Celine
Let her ride in a foreign with me
Oh, she the bae, Im her boo
And she down to break the rules
Ride or die, she gon go
Im gon judge, she finesse
I pipe up, she take that
Putting overtime on your body
You dont gotta go to work, work, work, work, work, work, work
But you gotta put in work, work, work, work, work, work, work
You dont gotta go to work, work, work, work, work, work, work
Let my body do the work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work
We can work from home, oh, oh, oh-oh
We can work from home, oh, oh, oh-oh
Yeah, we can work from home
Yeah, we can work from home
Yeah
