"Goldie" is a song by American hip-hop recording artist ASAP Rocky. It was released on April 27, 2012 as the lead single from his debut studio album "Long.Live.ASAP". The song was produced by Hit-Boy, who wanted to play off Rocky's laid-back style of rapping, accompanied by intentional vocal distortions, to produce a sound bordering along comatose. Beneath the beat, Hit-Boy added a reverberating chant meant to add a sinister atmosphere to the track.
The music video, which was filmed mostly in Paris, France and directed by Rocky himself, was released on his Vevo channel on May 3, 2012. It features a major appearance by ASAP Worldwide co-founder ASAP Yams.
Complex named the song #30 on the 50 best songs of 2012 list. Rolling Stone named the song #27 on their 50 best songs of 2012 list. BET named the song the No. 35 music video of 2012 on their year-end Notarized countdown.
"I was in L.A. recording with Hit-Boy. We was going through some tracks. He was going through some tracks he had made for Jay-Z. He goes, ‘You ever hear this?’ He let me hear it. I go, ‘Let me get that,‘ and he let me have that record. I spit to it, and it was like, ‘This beat was made for you.’ That’s just how it worked. With “Goldie” I just really wanted to show people a different side of me. I wanted to show them something jiggy. Some tastemaker shit."
