GoldLink Shares Thought-Provoking Verse for his XXL Freshman Freestyle (Video)

VA’s GoldLink was recently announced as one of this years’ XXL Freshmen, and he delivered a thought-filled verse for his freestyle. The chances are, if you aren’t too familiar with GoldLink, that you might be a bit surprised – he’s mostly known for his fun party anthems. This shows a different side though, for those that may not be too familiar.

Aside from the words spoken above, which you have probably already pressed play on, the talented young emcee will be working on his debut album with none other than Rick Rubin. Check out some of GL’s upcoming tour dates below.
