"Mr. Talk About His Dick Again" is back with a new track. After going on a Twitter rant about haters, and his own life and how this whole Childish Gambino thing started as a joke and just blew up he drops a link to the new song "We Ain't Them." Now he is hinting that he wants to make this a full time gig. Or to quote him "I don't think anyone person on earth should strive to be 'just some dude.' I don't wanna be that. or a coward. Those are the worst things you could be." Great advice to all people, not just artists. No longer is he going to fool around with this hip hop scene, he is going balls to the wall now. Rappers without their "Luxuries of Subtleties" have the voice to tell it like it is. We don't need to veil all of our feelings in metaphors if we don't want. There is a new wave of very introspective rappers talking real live problems on beats like they are writing in their diaries.
I have always enjoyed his style, his honesty and stream of consciousness raps mixed with real lines to make you stop and think. This track is one of those where thanks to Twitter you can really see where he is coming from. The last line on the track "Im the best . . . " even references a part in his original post about claiming your the best rapper. In this linked in world today even the semi famous and under microscopes, being bombarded from all sides with love and seething hate simultaneously. Makes you expect to see a few more Britney - esq meltdowns. Or if your a rapper, tell it like it is and keep doing your thing.
So looks like things are changing for this comedian, writer, actor, artist. With talks of "Community" being canceled, put on hiatus, moved to Friday nights, I don't see this show on NBC much longer. Bummer to fans, but for Donald? "Back of my mind I hope the show gets canceled, maybe then I can focus." Sounds like home boy is settling into the rap game, and I am one fan who welcomes you!
