GOLDBUUDA is an award-winning artist, rapper, and producer who is single-handedly rewriting the rules of Korean hip-hop. Raised in Miami before relocating to Seoul, he seamlessly fuses the raw, nostalgic energy of ’90s and 2000s Miami bass and crunk with cutting-edge trap and experimental rap—a signature sound he masterfully dubs “BUUDA KRUNK.”
He first captured global attention through viral, genre-defining collaborations with his sister Lil Cherry, including massive hits like ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT, MUKKBANG, and 1000 Words (하늘천따지 ). Today, GOLDBUUDA continues to carve out a distinct, uncompromising lane as a solo powerhouse. Driven by a vision to elevate the culture, he also founded 1UP Label, a boundary-pushing collective and platform dedicated to championing the next generation of Korea’s underground hip-hop talent.
