Some songs hit harder not because they’re loud, but because they’re real. Vintage The Audio, aka V.T.A, delivers exactly that with his latest single, “Good Times”—a poignant and powerful track that captures the ache of grief and the light that somehow still shines through.
Released on April 18, fittingly Good Friday, “Good Times” is more than just a tribute. It’s a spiritual release, a moment of reflection for the loved ones V.T.A has lost—his grandmother, cousin Kirkie, and Manny. But what makes this track unforgettable is how it transforms mourning into movement. With every verse, V.T.A channels sorrow into strength, weaving memories of better days into the present as fuel for the future.
Born from the fusion of Caribbean heritage and Florida street grit, Vintage The Audio’s style is both deeply personal and culturally resonant. His sound is rooted in hip-hop, but it carries a soulful weight that transcends genre. There’s a raw, almost cinematic quality to the way he tells stories—never overproduced, never artificial. Just real life, in rhythm and rhyme.
“Good Times” is about more than loss—it’s about legacy, about holding onto joy even when your heart is heavy. It’s about turning pain into purpose.
Tap into the emotional gravity and unfiltered honesty of “Good Times” by Vintage The Audio on Spotify, and witness how real stories create timeless music.
