Rapper Childish Gambino as the album artwork The new rapper Donald Glover, other wise known as Childish Gambino; has “spit” beats on his new album "Because the Internet" and is changing the music game. Starting with his album “Sick Boi” in 2008, working his way up the musical food chain by playing in Adidas commercials, Gambino has taken on the music industry and is coming in with a big pow. Donald Glover is better know for working with Tina Fey and acting in the show “Community.”
Two of his latest singles “Crawl” and “3005” make this CD worth buying. This album shows off Gambino’s array of sound waves with techno, soft rap, speaking parts, heavy bass, and major flow. His album can be described as eclectic with random sayings, sounds, and mash-ups. However, this album may not be for younger listener's ears, since it is marked as explicit.
"Because the Internet" features members Chance the Rapper, writer of "Acid Raps", Jhene Aiko, writer of "Sailing Souls", and Azealia Banks, writer of "Broke with Expensive Taste."
When listening to the song "Flight Of The Navigator", fellow staff member Carley Williamson said it sounds “creepy” and reminds her of the movie "Tarzan"; but when listening to "Pink Toes" – a “less trippy” song – she said, “it’s a good one."
Hannah Spencer is a big fan of Gambino’s album; she said, “his album is really good, but I guess you have to be into that kind of music to like that kind of music, ya know?” Gambino’s album is pure gold to some, but maybe not for the next person.
