FUCK. ME. Just wow.
Imagine some Grammy judge watching this and thinking “Yeah, this guy’s good, but he’s no Bruno Mars!”

Childish Gambino – “Awaken, My Love!”
Well where the hell did this come from? Childish Gambino AKA Donald Glover drops his 3rd album under the CG monkier out of nowhere, and it is a BEAST. Always been slightly underwhelmed by his previous output, which felt to more like hip hop you could admire more than love. It was too clever and tricksy and I don know, I didn’t feel it.
This is a totally different beast. This isn’t hip hop at all – it’s a funk or soul album, steeped in Sly Stone, Prince and Funkadelic, and it’s as properly far out at times as either George Clinton or Sly. It’s a bold step to the left, and he pulls it off with incredible confidence. I’m only my 2nd listen, but I am LOVING it…
Untitled Kendrick
Kendrick just dropped this out of nowhere. I’m only a first listen, but this is BLOWING MY MIND. Like more than Butterfly. I can’t explain why, but I am LOVING it.
Should I go back to Butterfly? Does this feel different? It’s apparently just unreleased tracks from the same sessions. It’s got such groove and flow. Just brilliant.
Thoughts, brothers?
