A university student on an academic scholarship once interrupted his professor to make a startling announcement. 24kGoldn was born Golden Landis Von Jones in San Francisco and has said he always liked entertaining people; child modeling for Honda, Lunchables and Blue Diamond Almonds commercials gave him an early introduction to the entertainment industry. An announcement made by interrupting a professor hints at a performer who did not wait for permission. Early commercial work beside his remark that he always liked entertaining people suggests a comfort in front of an audience. Both of his parents worked as fashion models, and he has said his father is Black and Catholic while his mother is white and Jewish. Billboard reports that his parents were instrumental in building his love of music, and that he names Miles Davis and Michael Jackson among his influences. His middle-school playlists ran from Bruno Mars to Chief Keef, and he says his playlist still looks like that. A mixed-background household and a playlist that crosses genres hint at why his songs move easily between styles. His first music video, for a song called Trappers Anthem, appeared in 2017. He messaged a DJ Booth writer on Twitter, offering his own tracks, after reading a May 2018 piece that argued critics wrongly wave off SoundCloud rappers. He also signed with Columbia Records. His major-label debut track, Valentino, leaned on trap production and played up designer clothes and a playful demeanor; he followed it up with the track City of Angels, flirting with rock production. Reaching out to a DJ Booth writer after reading a piece about SoundCloud rappers suggests a rapper who took initiative rather than waiting to be found. Following a trap song with a rock-flavored one points to a restless approach to genre. Billboard reports that he came up with what became the chorus of Mood, and at 19 he called the experience of growing up amid all this success “the most surreal experience of my life.” He put his studies on hold to focus on music, and in August 2020 he was placed tenth on the XXL Freshman Class list after receiving the most fan votes. In March 2024 he announced the EP Growing Pains, released on March 15. A placing on the XXL list after the most fan votes, beside the surreal feeling he describes at 19, may suggest an audience's role in his rise.
