Childish Gambino - Eat Your Vegetables


Mr. "D-Money" is finally back with some new music. This one rumored to be on his upcoming project contains a sample from... Donkey Kong. Not at all surprised though coming from Donald.

Childish Gambino - Heartbeat [Video]


Donald's love story from Camp finally gets its own music video. Rumors say that the next track from his debut album to get the visual treatment will be 'L.E.S.', but we'll have to wait for some word from Childish Gambino's people to confirm that. For now, enjoy this 'Heartbeat' video.

Childish Gambino - Heartbeat [Video Teaser]


With Valentine's Day coming up, what better day for Donald to drop the video to his second single, 'Heartbeat', off his debut album. From the preview we can expect a movie-style music video to emulate the story behind my favorite track from Camp.

Heems - Nehru Jackets [Mixtape]


One-third of the Das Racist crew unexpectedly drops this 25-track mixtape titled Nehru Jackets. The Indian group from Brooklyn have only released two mixtapes and one full-length album, but they have become huge in the alternative hip hop genre. Their unconventional style and witty punchlines make them easy to enjoy for any fans of music. Check out these two stand-out tracks from the project that feature Danny Brown, Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire, and Childish Gambino. If you're interested in downloading the full project, the link is just below.

Childish Gambino NYU Freestyle 2004 [Video]

"To give it some context, my freshman year at New York University was beginning and I had moved into Goddard Hall about a week prior. All of Goddard’s floors had themes, I was on the 4th floor (Music) while Donald was the RA on the 7th (Writing?). During that first week of college when you meet everyone and you condense yourself into a soundbite, I felt most comfortable with “I’m Chaz, I’m a Cinema Studies major and I rap.” Soon I was noticing more and more “Have you met Donald? He’s on the 7th floor and he raps too” responses. We finally met in really quick passing between classes and had one of those “You like rap? I like rap too! I like MadVillain. You like Madvillain too?! Let’s rap sometime!” rapidfire dialogues that happen in the hustle and bustle of college life. Later that night, during my dorm’s nightly “Basement Jam” sessions where all the musicians would just play and everyone hung out in-between loads of laundry and games of Donkey Kong, someone noticed Donald and I were both in the same place and invited us to rap together. Some of the guys playing weren’t too familiar with Hip-Hop beats, so we asked if they knew “Back in Black.” They did, and so this happened."

October Artist Of The Month: Childish Gambino


Childish Gambino aka Troy Barnes (from NBC'sCommunity) aka Donald Glover is not only a triple-threat rapper/actor/writer, but he happens to be very good at each of them. While he has found early success in his career being a writer for The Daily Show and 30 Rock, as well as a lead acting role on NBC's hit showCommunity that's now in it's third season, he has recently been making noise in the rap game with his recent signing toGlassnote Records. With his debut Camp on the way and the lead single from that album, "Bonfire", seeing success already, Donald should sure be in everyone's spotlight for the upcoming month.

It's The Real: The Check-In w/ Childish Gambino [Video]


The Rosenthal brothers expected an interview at Rock The Bells with Common. Since he wasn't available for questioning, because he did not attend the New York stop of Rock The Bells, they decided to ask Donald Glover the same questions they would have asked Common if he had been there. With no surprise to anyone, comedy ensues.

Childish Gambino - Bonfire [Snippet]


There's good news and bad news. The good news is that we've been given this mp3 preview of a track that we've only previously heard from a live performance video. The bad news is that Donald's debut album through Glassnote Records, Camp, has been pushed back to November 1st. Will his album live up to it's current hype?
