My Take
24kGoldn is a fascinating snapshot of how careers get made now. A San Francisco kid who landed at USC's Thornton School of Music, he turned 2019's Valentino into a double-platinum breakout and then went stratospheric with Mood, the kind of genre-blurring rap-pop crossover that defined that era. Making Billboard's 21 Under 21 in 2020 confirms how fast it all moved. What I appreciate is that the formal music-school background sits behind the streaming-age hits, suggesting more craft than the viral numbers alone imply. To me the real question is longevity, whether he can build a catalog as memorable as that first wave.
