Gold Digger · Tesla Light Show
by Kanye West ft. Jamie Foxx
Kanye West built it on Ray Charles's I Got a Woman, sung by Jamie Foxx, who had just played Ray on screen. The show rides that bouncing sample hard: the signature bar re-fires well over one and a half times a second with the front turn signals answering, a relentless pattern through the verses, and the fullest passage lands in the middle. Bright, with headroom left for the hook. Three and a half minutes, and a crowd-pleaser for anyone old enough to remember 2005 on the radio.
How this one is choreographed
This is one of the fastest shows in the library: the lights re-fire about 1.2 times a second and rarely sit still. The peak is in the middle third, where roughly 35% of the car is lit against 31% at the top, then it eases back for the finish. Most of the work falls on the signature light bar and daytime running lights, re-firing about 1.7 times a second, with the front turn signals answering back at 1.4. It runs 3:28 and averages 79 of 255 across the light channels, a mid-brightness show, with real headroom kept in reserve for the peaks. About 15% of the light values sit at a partial level, so hits are punctuated by fades rather than being pure on and off.
Measured from the exported light sequence for this show, not estimated from the song.
Get it for your Tesla
This show downloads for every Tesla: Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X, and Cybertruck. Preview it on your model with the View-on picker above, add it to your library, and it re-tailors to your car's lights automatically.
How to play it on your car
- Open the show above and add it to your library (remix it in the builder first if you want).
- Add your own copy of the song: an MP3/WAV you own. We distribute only the light pattern, never audio.
- Export the
.fseqbuilt for your model, then place your song next to it (or let the one-click USB writer do both). - Put both files in a
LightShowfolder on a USB drive. Or skip the manual steps: in Chrome/Edge, click 🔌 Write it to my USB drive for me right after exporting and we do it all, verified byte-for-byte. Then plug in and start it from Toybox → Light Show. Full walkthrough in the setup guide.
Car says Light Show instead of Custom Light Show, or the drive is not detected at all? That is the USB format, the folder name, or filenames that do not match. If it plays but drifts out of time, that is the audio sample rate. Fix both here.
