Days after releasing side one (STN MTN) of his recent mixtape, Childish Gambino comes through with the second side of the mixatpe, Kauai. There is a very distinct difference between side one and two of the project, but both are on point. Featuring some poetry from the ever-so-interesting Jaden Smith, the EP consists of 7 tracks including the previously released "Sober". Unlike … [Read more...]
Childish Gambino – STN MTN [Mixtape]
Childish Gambino comes through with side one of his STN MTN/Kauai mixtape series. Presented by Gangsta Grillz and hosted by DJ Drama, the project contains some of Gambino's best verses to date.

S-X – Free At Last (feat. Childish Gambino)
It appears UK Producer S-X logged some studio time with the talented Childish Gambino "like a year back." The result never quite surfaced... until now. After much delay and (assumed) frustration, the beat maker releases his collaboration with Childish and its free (at last). Gambino and S-X deliver on both ends with stellar production featuring a future bass-type beat and … [Read more...]

Logic – Driving Ms. Daisy (feat. Childish Gambino)
Logic comes through with a self-produced chilled out track featuring a verse from Childish Gambino in the form of "Driving Ms. Daisy". Definitely a slightly different sound from Logic than we've heard in the past, simply because of the added low-key vocal effects and layering. Similarly to Mac Miller/Larry Fisherman, Logic has slowly but surely brought along his production … [Read more...]
Childish Gambino – Candler Road
Childish Gambino is not holding back. Marking his first release since he dropped "Because The Internet" in December, Gambino goes in on a an eery- synth filled trap beat. Lyrically, he goes at it and claims himself to be the "last great american poet". Gambino switches it up about halfway in the track suddenly bringing on the vibes and Gambino going even harder. Not sure where … [Read more...]
