GOALS is one of the rare Daj' uploads that names its producer right in the title: "Prod. BapeBrazy." It lives on the @supercooldaj SoundCloud page, runs a little under three minutes, and has picked up 183 tracked plays and three likes. No release date is listed on the upload, so the honest way to place it is by handle and credit rather than by year.
For a catalog where most uploads carry no credits at all, that named collaborator is the first thing that makes this record stand out.
A Producer Credit Worth Noticing
Across the thousands of Daj' uploads, the large majority list nobody but the artist. GOALS breaks that pattern. BapeBrazy is credited as producer in the title itself, which is the old SoundCloud convention: put the beatmaker where everyone will see it, so the credit travels with every share.
GOALS is not alone. Another upload on the same handle, Watch Your Mouth, carries the identical credit. Two records with one producer suggests a working relationship rather than a one-off beat purchase, and it gives fans a small sub-catalog to explore as a pair.
What the Record Sounds Like
At roughly 2:49, GOALS has room for a proper structure with a hook and two verses, or a hook and one long verse. The title sets the theme in a single word, and the producer credit tells you the beat came from outside the artist's own sessions. That combination usually produces a more focused record than a solo bedroom take, because the instrumental arrives finished and the writing has to meet it.
Listen for how the vocal sits with the beat rather than over it. Collaborative records tend to reveal how an artist adapts, and that is the most interesting thing to track on a cut like this one.
Why @supercooldaj Matters
Daj' runs two separate SoundCloud catalogs. @supercooldaj is the larger of the two by a wide margin, carrying about 8.42M of the roughly 9.39M deduplicated cumulative plays across the whole operation. Most of that weight comes from a small number of breakout tracks, and the rest of the page is a long archive of records like GOALS.
That matters for context. A record with 183 plays on a page with millions is not a failure; it is a deep cut. Archives this big always have a top shelf and a back room, and the back room is often where the more personal work lives.
Independent From the Start
There is no middleman in this catalog. Releases go out direct through distributors chosen per project, UnitedMasters for DARK I and CDBaby for Too Dark, and the SoundCloud pages are run by the artist. GOALS predates or sits outside the DARK Library volumes, so it reads as part of the broader body of work that built the audience before the album cycle began.
Ownership is on the public record too. Forty-seven works are registered with The MLC under the writer name DANIEL DAJAI STEWART-HANDY, all at 100% Total Known Shares.
How to Listen
GOALS is on SoundCloud only, on the @supercooldaj handle. It shows 183 plays and three likes at the time of writing. The smart move is to play it back to back with Watch Your Mouth, since both carry the BapeBrazy credit, and decide for yourself which one hits harder. If either one earns a spot in your rotation, leave a like where the artist can see it.
