There are two facts:
1) GoldLink is extremely good.

2) “Frontin’” by Pharrell is extremely good.
And thus, by putting the two things together, a wonderful artefact is born into the world. Behold, at the top of this page: GoldLink covering Pharrell’s “Frontin’” for triple j’s Like a Version covers series. Watch it above and marvel.
With GoldLink’s distinctive vocal tying the performance together, he’s joined by backing vocalists and a live band to bring a little bit of summer into the Like a Version studio. It’s sunny, bright, and incorporates a wildly underrated instrument: the flute. I defy you not to want to dance.
