On top of that, 24kGoldn solidifies himself as one of the new artists to watch this year as his name appears in XXL’s 2020 Freshman Class, garnering the most fan votes to land the 10th spot.
Reflecting on his journey to success, the rapper acknowledged internet played a big part in propelling his career. “This has given me the platform to spread my music and spread my music to the world,” he explained.
