Sasquatch Music Series : Childish Gambino

Hello, hello, hello fellow music lovers! We meet again on this lovely Monday for another installment of Sasquatch Music Series. This weeks pick - Childish Gambino.

I found this discovery to be especially interesting as Donald Glover is known for his acting and writing work on The Daily Show, Community, and 30 Rock. Born at Edwards Air Force Base in California in 1983, and graduating from New York University with a degree in dramatic writing in 2006, it seems that Glover knew his path for sometime. Glover is also a part of the sketch comedy group, Derrick Comedy. The group wrote and starred in the full length film, Mystery Team. Glovers' music includes DJing under the moniker mcDJ and rapping under the name Childish Gambino - a name he comically received from a Wu Tang name generator.
I loved reading about Childish Gambino; he is a very intelligent and heartfelt real rapper. He dives into his life and mind and writes on a very real plane. He even went so far as to disown an album he felt didn't reflect the way he intended.
This show is gonna be a fun one. You will be able to dance and even feel CG on a lot of levels. I highly recommend making a bee line for whichever stage this young gentleman is playing.
I hope you enjoy my favorite song and video from Childish Gambino, "Heartbeats."
