Everything has to be trend forward. Everything has to be organic to me. My vision of shifting structural ideologies to a more self aware perspective will be brought to life by using music, art, and food. I want to create global change by encouraging critical thinking to bridge the gaps between our societal differences.
I am an indigenous Afro Latino man from Harlem/Bronx New York with masterful ability and taste. I have been building a unit around my brand. I have a team consisting of a Fashion Designer/Stylist, Videographer/Cinematographer, Photographer, Dancers, Curators, Radio Stations, and a Marketing Engine, with both local and global networks in places that range from Texas and California to South Africa and South America. I’ve also made a significant amount of industry and blog contacts and have been a part of a community that gives sync licensing opportunities. We’re ready for the next level.
The GOLD sound has no limitations. I’ve cultivated a natural mix of genres by infusing different elements, allowing for newer waves to be created. By releasing standalone singles, I’ve set the stage for my debut project titled “The Gold Effect.” Each of these singles has prepared my audience by demonstrating versatility, growth and authenticity of image and likeness. I have multiple identities (Jakku Hatsuan/Sleepy Edgar/Daf Senpai/JAC BRAINCHILD/OMNiPSYKE), which allows me to pursue different demographics and avenues of revenue, and I’m also interested in scoring soundtracks for film/television/video games. As a producer, I also want to create a curated playlist that is strictly for underground artists, similar to what the old Mixtapes were back in the 90s. Playlists are free to create, however the marketing behind it has to target only undiscovered artists at an affordable cost. Over the past few years I’ve created an exciting and unique sound that resonates with others, to the point that I have been able to build a clientele of people who hire me for my production skills.
Over the last two years I’ve been focusing more on cooking different cuisines for various groups of people and I’m looking forward to being able to do the same with you. I’m a pretty masterful chef and I have been creating a menu with various options ranging from exotic seafoods to non-traditional meats like rabbit and venison. I’ve also already created original sauces and seasoning mixes such as my Kief Rub, and with the new marijuana legalization legislation in NYC and across the US, I plan to infuse cannabis with many of the dishes. Experimenting with non-typical ingredients and different wellness techniques has made my cooking, like my music, stand out from the crowd. I would like to film a pilot/series of Cooking with GolDKief, with the end goal of pitching a full series where I mentor and cook with and then interview artists (both indie and mainstream), politicians, activists, etc over dinner, making sure to observe their reactions to the food.
As of late, with the help of my personal stylist, I’ve transformed my image drastically while still keeping the same enigmatic elements. I’ve been wearing a lot of colorful patterns, funky fabrics, and animal prints/(faux)furs, combining them with elements of my favorite Animes/MANGAs. If it isn’t thrifted or made from indie designers I’m not really interested in wearing it. My body and image are a product and anyone who wants to showcase their work on me is also a representation of my brand, Whitekid, and our collective affiliates. I have some ideas for a clothing line and other merch endeavors and am currently working on an LLC with my father on a separate venture.
I want to change the spectrum of visual art and how it’s implemented in society (i.e. galleries, VR experiences, graphic content, cartoons, action figures, etc.) I have created an identity with my graphic work.
