childish gambino // eat your vegetables

All rappers are not created equal. It’s a fact worth knowing. Donald Glover bka Childish Gambino is poised to methodically carve out a special niche in the world of Rap and Hip Hop. It’s the geeky, nerdy and oh so proper Negro thing to do, it works for him. His is a new kind of brand new, and although the establishment seems unfit to market him his growing fan base will more than rise to the occasion and by word of mouth do his marketing for him.

On the track Eat Your Vegetables we hear CB waxing poetically about Trayvon, among other things, and it’s nice to see the facets of growth and maturity shine through. Be on the lookout for a forthcoming Mixtape Childish Gambino soon. And if the photo has you flummoxed, well it just may be the graphics to said soon to be released mixtape. Peace.

Childish Gambino // Heartbeat (Video)

I have listened to the entire Childish Gambino album Camp countless times, but this here song just stays inside my head and rattles around waiting for opportunities to sidetrack me with its irresistible house=tinged beat. And now there is a video, so now my eyes are going to be looking for ways to get me to watch it often. Do you have the same affliction? Lucky me. Peace.

Childish Gambino – Heartbeat (aRod Remix)

Sir Donald is riding high these days, and I suspect in more ways than one. With the release of his stunna’ LP Camp (which dropped Nov. 15th) there comes a smidgen of validation. Yes, self-proclaimed squares are not only cool; but this one can rap his ass off too. And not that it means anything, but Camp is currently resting at #2 on iTunes these days. What’s all the fuss about Childish Gambino you may ask? I’ll just let you rock out to “Heartbeat” superbly remixed by aRod.  “I’m going straight for your thighs like the cake you ate!” Stop it D. you’re killing ’em. Peace.

Childish Gambino – All the Shine (Demo)


Rap is constantly in need of revamping itself, of reinventing what was into something  new. If not refreshing, then real, naked and weird. Rap needed to shed the accoutrements of materialism and pettiness, and stare into the mirror of reality. Enter Childish Gambino. I ain’t going into a long winded bio, if you know you know, and if you don’t you should. Check out the demo “All The Shine”. Here, you get the honesty without bravado, you get rap without ugliness or idiocy. Nothing childish about CG’s word craft. I am eagerly awaiting  the debut Camp LP set for release November 15th via Glasstone Records. Peace.
