Danny Gonzalez

Artist

Danny Gonzalez made his name posting videos on the 6-second video service Vine. When the service shut down, he began to upload comedy videos on YouTube, and has since reached over 4.7 million subscribers on his main channel and over 1.3 million on his second channel, 2 Danny 2 Furious.

Aside from YouTube comedy, Danny is also known for his comedy music, with over 230,000 monthly listeners and 49,000 followers on Spotify. His most popular Spotify songs are “Help Let Me Go,” with over 5.7 million plays, “I’m Gonna Kill Santa Claus,” with over 5.5 million plays, and “Johnny Johnny,” with over 4.5 million plays.

Many of Danny’s comedy songs are written from the perspective of a sort of fictional character of his own making. This character, occasionally credited as “Young Face,” is an intentional parody of the general rap genre, and is self-absorbed, rude, and financially irresponsible. However, the character is also present in earlier work released under his real name, such as “Car So Fast” and “Vape Tricks.”
