Childish Gambino - The new album Because The Internet coming out 10th December
RnB/Hip Hop | Monday 28th October 2013 | Nico Gierko
Donald Glover, aka Childish Gambino, is clear. For him, there is no point to be seen as a rapper, "I don t want a label". He doesn t make music to give solely to people what they want... "I could get more money, keep doing shows, do what the fans wants, or be better, do what i want". He is just doing what he wants to do: experimenting with new things.
Chidish Gambino has already released "Centipede", "3005", and "Worldstar" and these will probably figure on the new album. Childish Gambino, the artist, not the rapper, just wanst to be honest for this project. He is using a philosophical way to explain what he wants to make, saying that the new Drake record is a good album, that most of the fans like this album, but they will forget it soon. Why ???
Because to make a classic, that people can remember, you have to be a creator, as Dr Dre did for example with "The Chronic" in 1992, and "The Chronic 2001" in 1999. Two albums from one artist that sound completely different, but both are unforgettable classics. "Because the Internet" will not sound like a rap album, but like a different album, a piece of real art.
The day before, Childish Gambino made a dope freestyle on Shade 45 - Sway in the Morning that you can see at the bottom of the page. He raps on the beat to "Pound Cake" and we can feel that Childish has got a very high level, a mix between Rythm and sincere lyrics especially at 1:20, when Childish starts to talk about the power of money on humans... and then start to rap again, a insanely sincere performance! From today to the 10th December, Childish is creating... So, if you love arts, you will love Because the Internet.
