[New York, NY – August 28, 2019] Today, Grammy-nominated Squaaash Club/RCA Records recording artist GoldLink shares a new video for “U Say” ft. Tyler, The Creator and Jay Prince from his critically-acclaimed album Diaspora. Produced by Juls, the visual follows GoldLink, Tyler, The Creator, and Jay Prince around an ominous, sweat-inducing rager, until the night goes awry and an exorcism begins to take place. The video was co-directed by Aisultan and Nigerian artist Santi, who is set to join GoldLink on his European tour starting this Fall. Tickets are available now at goldlink.info.
“U Say” is the second visual from the album following “Zulu Screams” featuring Maleek Berry and Bibi Bourelly and arrives ahead of GoldLink’s Fall North American tour in support of Tyler, The Creator. Starting September 2nd in Minneapolis and ending October 26th in Houston, Goldlink will open all 30 dates alongside Jaden Smith in September and Blood Orange in October. All tickets are available here.

More about Goldlink:
Where the intersections of the DMV (DC, Maryland and Virginia) collide, GoldLink is a direct product. Washington, D.C., and the broader DMV area, have long been treated like a musical Rubik’s cube. There are bursting, Technicolor patches of musical brilliance, but the component parts never line up in a way that made sense to those on the outside. GoldLink is not interested in spelling out all the nuances of his hometown; what he does aim to do is synthesize his environment’s litany of influences and inspirations into something unique, singular, and all together his own.
With his debut studio album At What Cost (Squaaash Club/RCA)–helmed by the monstrous single “Crew”–released in March 2017, he’s done just that. By merging the sensibilities of go-go with the African diaspora, he’s done what hip-hop has done from its inception: repurpose what’s available into something magical.
The success of At What Cost and now Triple Platinum single “Crew” saw GoldLink achieve a number of career firsts in the past few months — from his Grammy nomination for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration to the iHeartMedia Music Awards nomination for Best New Hip-Hop Artist to his BET Awards nomination for Best New Artist.
