Blue Light Music Spotlight


This Month's Blue Light Music Artist Spotlight...

Childish Gambino



     You may know him as Donald Glover, the witty comedian who bring life to shows such as Community, but the music world is quickly getting to know another side of this NBC funny man. And that side is Childish Gambino. 
     Born Donald McKinley Glover on September, 25, 1983,  he began his venture into the "business" as a writer for the The Daily Show  and 30 Rock, before venturing on screen to the NBC-Universal Show Community. But as he stacked up in his acting career, Gambino was hard at work in 2008 producing mix tapes such as Sic Boy and kept the music coming with PoindexterI Am Just A Rapper and I Am Just A Rapper 2. While underground music lovers were hot on his trail, Gambino become mainstream with his remix of the popular Kanye West song "All Of The Lights" which he entitles Break (ATOL). After that, the same Childish Gambino was heard all around the US, and he was given praise for her third work Culdesac  and the EP Be Alone. Recently, Gambino has gotten hype for his newest album Camp which is slowly but surely becoming one of my favorite album, just as Childish Gambino is becoming one of my favorite rappers. Check out his website (childishgambino.blogspot.com) and get a taste of Gambino for yourself.
