United States Cold Hart is a musician and producer recognized for his role in the GothBoiClique collective, contributing to the evolution of emo rap and alternative hip-hop.
Cold Hart is an artist signed to Epitaph Records, which handles his music releases, including albums and singles, and supports his touring activities. The partnership involves distribution, promotion, and management of his musical catalog.
Jerick Quilisadio, known professionally as Cold Hart, is a Filipino singer and producer originally from Long Beach, California. He is a founding member of GothBoiClique (GBC), a collective that emerged from the internet rap underground during the late blog era. This group, which included artists such as Wicca Phase Springs Eternal and Horse Head, was instrumental in shaping a musical movement in the 2010s that blended 2000s rock influences with contemporary Soundcloud hip-hop aesthetics, thereby influencing the definitions of punk and emo genres. Cold Hart’s musical style is characterized by elements of rock and roll blended with hip-hop rhythms and melodic structures.
His career progression reflects a consistent focus on artistic development and personal narrative. In 2021, he released the album ‘Every Day Is A Day,’ a project created during a period of significant personal change, including the birth of his daughter and a move to Long Island. Following this, his album ‘Pretty In The Dark’ explored themes of adulthood and introspective reflection, drawing inspiration from his personal experiences as a father of two. This record was largely produced in collaboration with fellow GBC member Yawns, and sections were recorded and refined with the expertise of producer-engineer Andrew Dawson in Arizona.
Cold Hart’s music frequently integrates diverse influences, ranging from goth icons like The Cure and Lebanon Hanover to trap productions by artists such as Metro Boomin, alongside 80s punk and 90s R&B. His work on ‘Pretty In The Dark’ features tracks like “2017” and “Rap Show,” which acknowledge his hip-hop origins and emo leanings. Other songs, including “Bottle Run Dry” and “Bold Riley,” delve into personal emotions, utilizing delicate piano arrangements, guitar-driven soundscapes, and rhythmic bass and 808s. He has refined his talk-singing delivery, incorporating layered harmonies and falsettos to create a vulnerable and distinct sonic signature. Cold Hart continues to explore new artistic directions while maintaining the core ethos of GothBoiClique.
