Review
Childish Gambino is a rap artist, and is the stage name of actor Donald Glover (Community, Mystery Team). This is his most recent release in late 2011. Most people who listened to rap in the 90s or even the early 2000s, will probably agree that rap has been on a decline for many years, with a few exceptions. Childish Gambino would be one of those exceptions. The lyrical content is great and may even take some thought to understand. Recently, rap has been missing that. Donald Glover has proven to be talented enough musically that his acting career may have not been the only reason he is getting recognition now. He writes about what he knows, and often points out that he does not fit the bill of the typical rapper in today's scene. He even has a few nerdy references for the nerds out there. The beats are pretty good and support the strength of the lyrics, but the lyrical content is the strongest part of the album.
