Childish Gambino: Bando Stone & The New World
Gambino has done it again. Earlier this year, Childish Gambino released a refinished version of 3.15.20 by renaming it Atavista, while also releasing music videos for songs like Little Foot Big Foot. But now Gambino has released a trailer to a full ass movie called Bando Stone and The New World. This is fucking amazing. We have watched Donald in his T.V. bag with Atlanta, Swarm, Mr. & Mrs. Smith and now this! This project is bittersweet, being Childish’s final album.
It’s only fitting to me that Gambino is going out with a bang. We are not just getting an album but a whole movie to go with it. AND this man is going on tour, The New World Tour, which I am personally so excited for. He will be in Minneapolis in October, which is also my birthday month, it’s going to be magical!
The first single we’ve gotten for Bando Stone and The New World is Lithonia. This song is literally everything. I love the intro and how he makes it a ballad and then those instrumentals come in and you get a more refined version of Childish Gambino from when he was in his alternative bag. His singing is like a lullaby, reminding you that Nobody in fact, gives a fuck. I love this vibe so much. As someone who still listens to Sick Boi, and I AM JUST A RAPPER, Royalty (Soundcloud for all his older music) it feels so full circle. But if I’m being honest, I’m not ready for this era to come to an end.
Bando Stone & The New World shows Donald Glover as Bando Stone a retired singer who pops into society realizing that everyone is gone, and that shit is weird. He runs into another person played by Jessica Allain. Together they try to survive rabid looking animals on a beautiful island. Written by Evi Wilder.
There is no commercial release date yet for the actual movie, but there are some saying the album will be out July 19th!
Be on the look out! 🖤
