The first two albums contain mostly original Goldwag's compositions. The title track of the third album was meant as a rebuttal to Blue Fringe's controversial song Flippin' Out. His fourth album is a 'reunion' album of many of his fellow former child soloists of the Miami Boys Choir, including Oded Karity, Yitzy Spinner, Nochum Stark, Eric Stern, and Nachman Seltzer.
Prior to releasing his first album he collaborated with some of his yeshiva mates on an album called Ruach UNeshama. In addition, Goldwag has appeared on the Avi Kula album Vzoicher as well as Sameach At The Wheel. He is often sought after for his compositions, and has composed songs for other artists including Michoel "Pruz" Pruzansky.
