Official Childish Gambino - Because the Internet Thread - (directions @ OP)UPDATE 3/3 GOT THE PLAQUE

[Abstract83]

I gave it 2 listens and deleted it. I'd say its creative and all but way too mushy for me. I feel like he's being everyone at once. At times he's flowing like lupe, kanye, kendrick, lil Wayne, and singing like drake. I feel like he's trying too hard to stand out while biting artists at the sametime. The production is different but it didn't interest me. I'm not ur typical boom bap head. I listen to flying lotus, afta-1, b-lewis, madlib, dilla, dibiase, abjo, etc. So I heard all that spacey eclectic stuff since 07. To be honest I only like the 1st song. And yes I know he has a concept and a script. I just feel like he was just putting random words together without saying anything meaningful. I've heard plenty of music thats eclectic and outside the "norm" just because it's different than anything else that's currently out doesn't mean its as good as ya making it out to be. The only thing I respect is the creativity and the risks he took. Other than that it's not for me.

Welp... I horribly slept on this album until my friend was listening to Telegraph Ave. on his iPhone. So I snatched it from him to look at who made the song, now I'm listening on Spotify.

that's the thing about childish though, it's not about the image it's about the music and what he's saying

listen to him without thinking about him personally and you'll see that i'm talking about.

Also funny how 3005 is now getting popular when in about 3 months it's the year anniversary for it's release

and i'm not sure about this but has BTI passed the 300k sold mark yet?
