Armani White and Denzel Curry bring out the best in each other in the new track “Goated,” out today.
For the song’s official video, directed by Mikey D’Amico and Davey Robinson, Armani tapped Floyd Mayweather Jr. for a quick cameo in which he’s seen training the Def Jam-signed artist. Later into the video, Denzel shows up to collect an award, all while literal goats make a number of appearances throughout.
See the newly unveiled “Goated” video above. Stream the song, which features an ear-grabbing Josh Brolin nod during Denzel’s verse, below via Spotify and Apple Music.
“Goated.” is slated to appear on Armani’s upcoming new EP, which is due in the first half of this year. Its release follows the recent rollouts of Vevo Ctrl Live Session versions of “Diamond Dallas” and breakout hit “Billie Eilish,” both available below.
When announcing Armani’s signing last July, Def Jam Recordings Chairman and CEO Tunji Balogun touted his “Billie Eilish” track as “lightning in a bottle” while looking ahead to what fans could expect next.
“As infectious and urgent as ‘Billie’ is, Armani’s upcoming EP displays an energetic, three-dimensional artist with a unique perspective and an exciting approach to the game,” Balogun said at the time. “We’re all excited to help him develop, connect with a wider audience, and become the star he’s shown he can be.”
As for Denzel, he was recently spotlighted amid Complex’s coverage of the best albums and songs of 2022. Last summer, he made a must-watch appearance on NPR’s Tiny Desk series.
