Danny Gonzalez

Danny Gonzalez is an American internet comedian and musician who first built an audience on Vine before the platform's shutdown pushed him toward YouTube, where he has become one of the most recognizable comedy creators, running both a main channel and a second channel, 2 Danny 2 Furious. Alongside his video work, Gonzalez has developed a parallel career in comedy music, releasing songs that parody rap and pop conventions with exaggerated bravado and absurd humor.

Much of his musical output centers on a fictional, self-absorbed persona — sometimes credited as «Young Face» — who is deliberately rude, materialistic, and financially reckless, satirizing tropes common in mainstream rap. This character appears not only in his more overtly comedic material but also in earlier songs released under his own name, such as «Car So Fast» and «Vape Tricks», suggesting the bit predates its later branding.

Gonzalez's best-known tracks include «Help Let Me Go», «I'm Gonna Kill Santa Claus», and «Johnny Johnny», all of which have racked up millions of streams and helped him build a dedicated following on streaming platforms in addition to YouTube. His music sits at the intersection of internet comedy and genre parody, drawing on hip hop, pop, and country stylings to heighten the joke, and it has made him a distinctive figure in the comedy-music space that grew out of the 2010s online video ecosystem.
