Listen to a Sweeping, Experimental New Childish Gambino Song
Childish Gambino, Donald Glover, Young Bino, whatever you're calling the man/myth/legend this morning, was one of many the many Bonnaroo killers that straight slayed us over the weekend. Any Gambino set is a treasure at this point in his still-on-the-rise, precision-sharpened career—but one with a brand new song? A six-minute song? A melodic, weird, D'Angelo-meets-Queen-meets-Donald-meets-seven-stripes-of-classic-rock song? TOO GOOD.
Check out the performance of the new track above; sound quality's strong enough to experience this beast, and the video's alright, too. The untitled cut gets better and better, culminating with some goosebump-donating falsetto work at the 5:20 mark. (If you didn't know Bino had that tool in to his arsenal by now, that's your bad.)
