Probably better in CYE but for those who are fans of Community. We got a new Drake bitches.

Not a good look, a few decent punchlines but as huge fan of Community I'm really upset I watched that.

I'm not a huge fan of Community, I'll watch it once in a while but I hate the main dude way too much to watch it regularly. Donald Glover and that Indian dude are hilarious together.

I like that song in the first post. I listened to his album a while back and thought it was just ok. It's not something I can listen to all the time, though. I have to really be in the mood to enjoy it.

Very promising comedic actor but he needs to leave this rap shit alone.

Surprised they'd book him at the Black Cat and not the Improv in DC.

He does do a very good live show. He was an RA at my NYU dorm back in 2004. Great guy.

We did this song two/three years ago:

He sounds like a lupe/drake hybrid to me. He'll be very successful.

yes. i hate his rap voice

based on the name "childish gambino" and this video it seems like he doesn't take his rap career very seriously............................. so im happy for now

Childish Gambino > Drake

A Kid · Post by **A Kid** » Sun Feb 27, 2011 2:12 am

i dig the name Childish Gambino..just reading the name on paper you'd never think it was him..im assuming thats why he chose it..

if he cut down the squeakiness in the voice i could probably listen more

This is way doper than anything Drake has done, I've actually listened to it twice voluntarily.

A Kid · Post by **A Kid** » Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:16 am

drake is pretty damn annoying but he still sounds more comfortable/natural on the mic

He got it from the Wu-Tang name generator online.

Not that serious of an endeavor for him. Still cool.

this song is dope

he manages to sound more relevant and in-tune to successful commercial rapping on this than lot of rappers right now, not to mention less bitchmade. which is hilarious given who he is. the punchlines are clever.

i'm impressed

COOLEHMAGAZINE · Post by **COOLEHMAGAZINE** » Thu Mar 03, 2011 6:20 pm

I can completely understand why people would like this and the lyrics are clever...but personally, I couldn't make it all the way through the song/vid.

I couldn't tell if he was mocking stuff like Wiz and Drake or trying to ape it while hedging his bets, just in case. Either way, it was a highly disconcerting, which might be fine if the end product sounded even slightly original. But it doesn't.

Dids · Post by **Dids** » Thu Mar 03, 2011 6:33 pm

I finally listened to one of his songs after hearing about his shit forever and was really sad to see it was just a bad Drake/Kanye/Wayne knock off. Such a normally creative funny guy and he makes about the most lame, derivative music possible.

I've read a lot of your posts and you really disagree with/dislike everything.
