Goldenboy is a much-needed kick for Florida rap that is currently undergoing a bit of a comedown after dominating the rap scene for much of the late 2010s. The rapper is sure to be the next Lil Pump or Denzel Curry, but only time will tell.
Goldenboy Countup Age: How Old Is Goldenboy Countup?
Goldenboy Countup age is 28 years old. According to the Volusia County public records, he was born on March 11, 1994.
Despite his young age, the rapper has had as many run-ins with the law as he has seen successes. Due to his upbringing and the area he grew up in, Goldenboy had a hard childhood and early life.
However, everything he has been through has only served as fuel for the rapper’s lyrics. Goldenboy’s pen is all about relating his personal struggles and trials to his audience while also making them dance.
In the 10+ projects the rapper has released since he jumped into the game in 2019, he has shared a lot of his life, made music that is both about him, and his community, and created a whole vibe to make the crowd jump.
Where Is Goldenboy Countup From?
Goldenboy Countup is from DeLand, Florida. DeLand is the county seat of Volusia County, near Orlando.
In an interview with Dirty Glove, Goldenboy recounted how he grew up in the small town of DeLand, with a father who used to work in the street life.
According to the rapper, his father, uncles, and every older man in the family were somehow involved in street life, and he soon learned to do the same.
The rapper recounted that his father had to go to jail while he was still very young, and then his uncles raised him after. Soon, he too would get involved in the streets, but always hanging around older folk, to which he credits his wisdom and street-smarts.
However, Goldenboy wouldn’t start rapping until recently, and he only did so around 2018/19 after his friend, Mike D, passed away. Mike’s aspirations were to be a rapper too, so Goldenboy decided to pick up the torch after his friend passed, and has since become a very successful rapper.
The Rapper Real Name
Goldenboy real name is Roderick Aaron Golden Jr. Another name the rapper calls himself is Chicken Man.
The rapper started calling himself Goldenboy based on his last name, and the Countup part comes from the money he used to make as a child and a young adult.
As for his Chicken Man pseudonym, the rapper gave an interview with the YouTuber DJ Smallz Eyes where he stated that a friend of his started calling him by the name because Goldenboy worked at a KFC.
However, the rapper has stuck with that name for his projects and has released over five projects with Chicken in the title, with three of them being part of his Chicken Man series.
As for his government name, the rapper rarely goes by it anymore, preferring to be referred to by Goldenboy, Countup, or Chicken Man.
Goldenboy Countup Baby Mamas And Kids
Goldenboy Countup has two children from two baby mamas. Goldenboy’s children consist of a son and a daughter.
In another interview with DJ Smallz Eyes, the rapper opened up about his baby mamas, stating that one of them works as a hairdresser, and the other works at a call center, but studied to be a teacher.
Golden refused to discuss his children though stating how he doesn’t like to discuss them in public.
However, he said that he is dedicated to being a part of his children’s lives, and considers that whenever he wants to be in a relationship with someone. Unlike a lot of other rappers, Goldenboy does not wish to date someone within the entertainment industry as he likes to keep the two aspects of his life separate.
In line with his wise outlook on life, the rapper views rapping and music as his job and views his children, baby mamas, and home life as something entirely different.
According to him, the key to happiness is to focus on those two lanes by themselves rather than attempting to meld them.
