I think Donald glover is a phenomenal example of someone who just poured himself into different passions. He doesn’t try to perfect any of them, but he gives honest and full effort. Sort of hoping to acting/writing, music, and used to be comedy, he’s shown that he’s a multifaceted artist who isn’t afraid to try.
Most artists are multi talented. Jamie Foxx is one that comes to mind. There's also Michael Jackson, Prince, Eddie Murphy, Will Smith, LLCJ, Ice Cube .... Having said that, Donald Glover did it in style. For a long time I thought Childish Gambino just happened to really look like Donald Glover. I was watching old Superman movies when I realised I had never seen Gambino and Glover together.
ehh... Childish gambino is both at the same time though... there's a lot of ppl that are fans of childish gambino and there's a lot of people that are fans of Donald Glover. Chances are if you meet and Eddie murphy they're not gonna say they're a fan of his music, if you meet LL Cool J, MJ, Prince you're probably not gonna talk about their acting. I guess Ice Cube and Will Smith are solid picks but even they didnt do it to the extent of Gambino imo
Childish Gambino's music holds a very strange, and special place in my heart. Absolutely love everything he does. The moment it hit me that the guy I was listening to was the same guy who's special I just watched a few months prior, I was very intrigued. I knew he was different, and when I looked more into him I realized this dude is really doing it all. I loved that. He really influenced me when I was younger, in ways that stick with me now. Major respect to this man
honestly I hope so... its crazy tho cause this wasn't the thumbnail I originally went with but I decided this one was better like 5 minutes after I uploaded it
I’ve been a Donald/Bino fan since Community. I saw the Weirdo standup special and he mentioned that he writes raps on his phone so I looked into his music. I found Camp and thought it was cool. I found Royalty and thought “Oh he’s really nice. Bro can spit and sing a bit”. Then he dropped Because the internet and I was like “Oh no he’s him.” Then Atlanta and Awaken My Love and I realized he’s truly a renaissance man. One of the most talented people of our time. Everything he touches is a fire. His acting, music, writing and directing. I’m a big fan and I wish him nothing but the best personally and professionally. Great video. I just subscribed 👍🏽
Me and your mama is an ode to the desperation and angst that love brings and gently brings you down to how simple and beautiful can be. Its a masterpiece. Took guts to create that.
This is such a well done video. It really highlights the genius who is Donald Glover. You can tell the creator put a lot of time into every aspect of this video: the commentary, the research, the appreciation of the artist. This creator deserves more subscribers!!!
he’s my inspiration i see myself in him he’s deeply passionate about many types of art and not afraid to take time to pursue and explore new ideas i love that about him it really makes him so much more human just not being attached to pursuing one thing and only that forever. i wanna explore my career is many different ways just like him
Ive been a gambino fan since i heard camp after watching community, it was so hype everytime he dropped an album and stn mtn/kawaii came out at the lowest point of my life and helped me through it
I remember first discovering Donald from Community when I was younger, and when I chatted with my older cousin about the show he mentioned that he was also an aritst Childish Gambino. Really loved his work but also his ability to evolve and adapt. Atlanta was another show I really enjoyed and Gambino's recent songs really portray such strong messages. Feels like summer and summertime magic are my go to vibe songs, super glad I found out about him
Camp is also apart of The Boys story, the BTI screenplay confirms it through a line at the beggining "you can't live your life on a bus" which is said at the end of Camp.
Donald Glover is just such an inspiration, he inspires me a lot, he is one of the people that aspire me to do everything I want to do and whatever i love doing, try things and so on.
Because The Internet and Atlanta are my favorite pieces of media Glover has ever made, hes a legend and I hope ppl give him more credit than he deserves 🙏
Binged your videos and was shook seeing you’re just over 3k subs. The quality of your videos are better than some other creators I’ve seen with 100k+ subs honestly. Subbed to see the come up I know is coming 💯
I’ve watched “This Is America” again and again and again and think it’s truly a MASTERPIECE production and if you watch the response video, RESIDENTE, they’re perfect to watch back to back on a loop.
In a way he didn’t break the system just stayed within its confines to boost himself, you’re not playing the system if you’re still in it lol, but eventually he definitely did get outside of the system
This is a great video, I was never really interested in Childish Gambino until your video came into my recommended and now, I’m genuinely interested in his music, Thankyou 🙏
Very well made video! But oh boy! There's a whole era of his that you didn't mention. He made several mixtapes before Camp and also made music under the name mc DJ. Though this material may not be everyone's cup of tea, it's certainly worth listening to once! PS - This ain't a promotion, but you can find his first mixtape on my channel :D
Out of pocket calling Me and your Mama a horror/Halloween song?? Its about the emotions of having a baby with someone that you love but aren't sure you will work out with because that question will always be in the back of your head. Are we really in love or are we just having a child together and what is that going to spell out for our future and the future of the baby? He hopes it works out and you hear that when he says that "the mama" really has a hold on him but that fear is manifested in that evil laugh and tone during the transition, that transition also can be interpreted as the transition the relationship went through when they found out they were pregnant and all the fear kicks in, before that its all chill and lovely, listen to what they say over and over again until that transition takes place and put yourself in his shoes. NOTHING to do with Halloween. LOL
Man I deeply love your videos. I'm a hip hop culture lover but by being born in south america I loss a lot of important moments, artist that make it great in north america and didn't been noticed here, wonderful music. You give that information to me and make me feel like I lived those moments, I'm rlly thankful. Excuse my english I'm not a native-speaker.

He is literally the definition of jack of all trades. He writes and produces, makes his own music, acts, and does standup. AND HES GOOD AT ALL OF THEM
Subjective, personally I think his stand up is lame but I quite like his writing / production work.
@@neilthompson8793 yep, he’s funny as hell tho. It’s weird, you’d think he’d be rlly good
“Awaken my love” is still one of my top 5 albums released in the past 10 years.
not bad
whats 1?

Prolly drunk by thundercat, maybe Gliss Riffer by Dan Deacon.
@@gerarddip interesting
The fact that redbone has no music video, only 1 performance is crazy
It has a couple performances i think bc I used more rhan one but I don't remember where else outside of SNL rn
@@KingBenny apart from amateur footage, I haven't found any. Maybe it's like his Grammy Performance of Terrified it's hard to find on the net.

i always loved how multidimensional Gambino is. this was a great video exploring that - well done :) keep it up!!
Thanks! I will try to keep it up as much as I can
Great video! Really cool to see how much he has done!
Feels Like Summer has always been one of favorite from Childish Gambino
He worked extremely hard. He would work on his rap music in between takes on Community. I am definitely a fan.

I love your videos man, giving me the missing knowledge I need! Also, well put together and enjoyable to experience!
Aye man... ngl... that's what my videos are for
I've been following him since his UA-cam days and I always get so proud thinking of how far he's come
I enjoyed your take. Thank you

Donald Glover is just such an inspiration, he inspires me a lot, he is one of the people that aspire me to do everything I want to do and whatever i love doing, try things and so on.
He is def an inspiration for me... at least sometimes I feel inspired
This was an excellent breakdown loved it nice work mate.
Thank you!
Loved the video! Thank you for making it, just subscribed
Really happy to hear that!
Forgot to mention his first projects “Poindexter” “I’m just a rapper 1&2” and “Culdesac”
Liked the video and breakdown. Thank you.
Thanks!
Absolutely shout out to you fr, this is fire❤
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it
Because The Internet and Atlanta are my favorite pieces of media Glover has ever made, hes a legend and I hope ppl give him more credit than he deserves 🙏
Binged your videos and was shook seeing you’re just over 3k subs. The quality of your videos are better than some other creators I’ve seen with 100k+ subs honestly. Subbed to see the come up I know is coming 💯
Honestly tho... I'm happy to be at 3k cause that was my goal this yr but I appreciate it and soon enough we'll hopefully be there
@@KingBenny keep it up man this content is fucking amazing! Id be interested if you covered some other genres too maybe the band Korn?
Atlanta is a good ass show 100% recommend
I legit gotta check it out ngl... I might pirate it if I have to ngl
i learned sm from this, really underrated
Thanks for this... needed it
Really loving your content.
Really loving the comments honestly... keep me going tbh
Bro I love ur videos ur amazing 😭😭😭
Thank you... I need the support lol
The algorithm has caught your videos buddy! Extremely good production. Will see you at 1mill subs soon for sure! :D
Hopefully... a million don't sound bad
The algorythm is perfect.
just wanna say i love your thumbnail lol. i really enjoyed this video and was shocked when i saw the low view count!
i also love your consistence and perseverance dude, respect
@@seoultea thanks for the words... the thumbnail is actually one that went through many drafts ngl so I appreciate the compliments
One word that describes Childish Gambino is Freedom.
I’ve watched “This Is America” again and again and again and think it’s truly a MASTERPIECE production and if you watch the response video, RESIDENTE, they’re perfect to watch back to back on a loop.
Residente was out of pocket for that response... like its a lame argument to be make the point he was making
In a way he didn’t break the system just stayed within its confines to boost himself, you’re not playing the system if you’re still in it lol, but eventually he definitely did get outside of the system
Love this video!
Thanks! love the comment tbh
Bro your channel is bloody perfection. Can't wait to come back in a few months and make that "I was here before a million subs" comment
oh brother... its gonna be more than a few months before we get to a million not gonna lie but thanks.
Good video loved it.
Thank you, it's been great seeing ppl show love for it
Culdesac and royalty mixtapes are where i started.
I’m curious about your take on Anderson Paak. He’s one of my favorite rappers who gives a different perspective on hiphop in how he flows.
Dont listen to him very much but he's amazing in everything I've heard
Chidlish Gambino got me into music.
Nice.
Loved him in Community since i watched it in quarantine. Then later listened to his music and prolly watch Atlanta.
thank u for the video, good stuff
thx for the comment
quality vid deserves more views
I'm pretty happy with how its doing... for me its doing pretty good but I do hope it can get more views tbh. Thanks for giving it a chance
Wow I thought u where a really big UA-camr. Anyways, great video!!
Haha... a lot of ppl think that and hopefully soon I will be. Thanks for the love
These vids need more views, I can tell a lot went into these. W Content man.
Honestly rn im satisfied with everything but soon ill get more views
Beatiful essay, Gambino Nation always wins
After finishing Atlanta, I can't wait to see what he does next. I think he could pull off a great movie.
This is a great video, I was never really interested in Childish Gambino until your video came into my recommended and now, I’m genuinely interested in his music, Thankyou 🙏
Happy to hear! Honestly you're the type of person I want to reach tbh
A Genius. Dude been in the zone the past decade
Cool vid bro. Hope u break the algorithm and get more subs and views as well.
aye man... this shit got 100k views... I broke the algorithm... I just gotta keep it going
@@KingBenny I'm here for more content! Keep it pushing.
@@kalebsheleme5693 thank you! Hope you enjoy
Didn’t know gambino did so many things, cool vid ima see spider man again lol
we gotta watch Atlanta ngl
in community Troy was voted most likely to succeed and they weren’t wrong
The editing is inconsistent a little, but the content is top notch
His Camp Album is still one of the best albums he ever haf
Thank you!!
Donald glover is so special in so many ways. He is such a true artist on so many levels. Multi level talent. This is america is next level.
When I heard 53.49 for the first time I started floating
Amazing content!!
Amazing comment!
Always been a Childish Gambino fan. Sick Boy and Culdesac are still fire. CAMP is a classic in my opinion
I still don’t know how he can wail like that on awakened
I spammed my random thoughts at 3 a.m. thinking about how much of a genuine person Donold is
I love his creativity and truly a historical figure
Brings out the insanity in happiness
I can see that
i love this man
how does this video have very few likes? Great video, man.
it is what it is I guess... i try not to let it bother me. Thanks for the love tho
Forgot to mention the album Kauai. Which was also incredible

I was more so referring to the horror sound of it... obvsly the lyrics aren't related to that
His show Atlanta has changed my life
Troy and Abed in the morning!
For the craziest Halloween songs, listen to any of Insane Clown Posse's tracks from Hallowicked
Excuse me sir you forgot to mention Donald's stand up comedy. Thank you.
I mentioned it at the very end... but youre right I didn't cover it too much cause I thought the skits he made on youtube were more notable
Man’s the second coming of ye
Ehh... I don't think ye could write a show like Atlanta

me and your mama is my favorite song ever and i have gaslit all of my friends into thinking so too.
I don't think that's how the term gaslighting works tbh
he's really something
No mention of the ROYALTY mixtape?
I remember I had to write a paper over the message of this is America. Made a 100% lmao. Insane song
Hey, is your outro Life by Rap Monster (RM) of BTS?
I was listening to music and sober shuffled right before i clicked on this video and i was really confused for a second
lol... the algorithm be funny
The outro to this life, right? Bts rm covered this around 10 yrs ago and that’s how I became a fan, I love his version
Its life by j dilla yes
Atlanta is one of the greatest shows ever. It shall be missed 😭
i have not watched it yet but i should prolly
@@KingBenny youll love it
I was introduced to him by mystery team
His first album was culdesac
The boy is a gun
Prince did everything too, but comedy. He should have more recognition. Not diminishing Glover, he is a genius.

Camp Fire
R O Y A L T Y
then Because the internet
I think you missed that the last album was not just an album but a soundtrack to a movie he was in with Rihanna
was it? I dont think it was but ig I could be wrong
This guy Donglover is pretty cool.
You missed The Mystery Team...
