It is a confluence of black music; hip-hop tracing its way back to the universal sounds of Africa.Because this is a GoldLink album, the center of his diaspora is still D.C., and he can’t help but sneak in DMV locals from Gaithersburg (As the diaspora converges around GoldLink, he performs a heightened version of his patented stoicism. Diaspora has reggae and Afrobeat mixed in between uptempo R&B and contemporary hip-hop. ‘Diaspora’ is no different. It was an intriguing concept, but one that required more heavy lifting than Lanez seemed willing to provide, content to piggyback on "featured" artists' existing … Link’s always had an ear for a good sound, but GoldLink seems to have mastered the art of flow control on While the album seems like a step in the right direction overall, GoldLink too often falls short to the same pitfalls he’s encountered multiple times in his career before. There’s soft music in the background. By the end of its runtime, From the vocal mix to the production value, SiR’s RCA debut ‘Chasing Summer’ is radiant.On his major label debut, 'Brandon Banks,' the Houston rapper amplifies the creative strengths found on 'Punken. A little weird hearing him sound so... I’m not sure. He isn’t setting up punchlines. What kind of life was GoldLink living before rap? 'Shoot For The Stars, Aim For The Moon' sounds like dying trying to get rich. All his verses are always concise and sleek. I would love a J. Cole-esque feature run. The sheer groove of his voice and subsequent beats has the ability to physically summon listeners to a patio, park or neighborhood BBQ. “Rumble” bodes predictable lines like “pussy niggas wanna play like Juwana” that sound like their straight out of a In short, GoldLink’s strength resides within his ability to bob and weave through intricate beats, not laying a 16 on a trap track. His delivery isn’t forced, far from corny and seemingly effortless. Now, after two years of relative stillness, GoldLink returns with The sound of breathing.

This is riding off into the sunset because I’ve said all that needed to be said music. I love this beat. He sounds familiar, but I can’t place the vocal. He’s never quite forthcoming, always concealing something, which is fitting for someone who It’s GoldLink’s ability to seem at home in any space that makes This reminds me of an early JAY-Z intro but without the mafioso speech. He’s always had a knack for making dance/rap music but it’s his afro-rap and dancehall execution that deserves props here. A hypnotic piano intro. Goldlink’s new album entitled Diaspora refers to the African diaspora, or all the people of African descent living outside the continent of Africa. The energy jumps! It’s so soothing. The production is banging harder than a landlord collecting past due rent. Pusha sounds like he’s in the studio with a million kilos of coke. It doesn’t sound like him at all. He’s focused. It’s the first sound listeners hear on opening cut “Joke Ting” and the final pluck heard on coke rap/dance hybrid “Cokewhite” featuring Pusha T; rendering the tracks both fun and frightening. Anyone with a half decent summer playlist knows that GoldLink’s music is downright a must-add. Diaspora doesn’t reach the highs of those records [To Pimp a Butterfly, Flower Boy] because its concern is more sound than story, but it further cements that GoldLink can conceive of and execute his ideas better than most anyone in hip-hop today.

A woman’s voice. “Zulu Screams” comes to life and gives the project a recharged pulse. '"He’s like a magician criticizing other magicians for pulling rabbits out of their hats just to pull a cheeseburger from his crotch and wonder why we won’t applaud him. “ GoldLink did not come to play. A “ Diaspora ” is a dispersion of people and subsequent culture from their place of origin – which pretty well sums up Africa’s influence on the modern world. Is this SZA?! Wiz sounds excellent. The beat is rocking! I wonder if this is an off-the-top freestyle? “Joke Ting” is melodic, soft, and infectious. Published on: Jul 11, 2019, 9:58 AM by Scott Glaysher.
