It's not a great rap song.
It's not a great Gambino song.
It's not a great kickback track.
But.
In a vacuum it's pretty damn good musicianship. If you listen to it with headphones it's really well produced music.
It's just, not really what we want or have waited years for from Donald :\

After listening to that new track I'm really looking forward to the album. I can tell a lot of people won't like it. They prob hated Mos Def - New Danger (if they were even listening to music when it came out) because it failed to meet their expectations. Same thing with Kendrick - TPAB or Kanye - 808's.
Sometimes your favorite rappers don't want to rap and just make music.
On a lighter note, the face on the cover reminds me of Bernie Mac

All the way here for this all or mostly singing album. Those ended up being some of my favorite songs of his in recent years, so I'm looking forward to hearing what people that got to go to that Pharos event experienced.
I'm definitely gonna grab a vinyl copy off the strength of that cover

This song is ******* amazing.
He evolves with every project.
Can't wait.

Wow! I've never given his music a try before this. Definitely has a Maggot Brain influence going on. I like it.
To the people complaining, go listen to Maggot Brain, look at the year that is was dropped and kinda browse what became popular after that.

@Brolic Scholar, Rep to you good sir for the "Maggot Brain" mention. I first heard that song like 6 years ago. That raw emotion Eddie Hazel put into those damb strings [emoji]128549[/emoji].
Back to Childish. Love the direction. Very funky. Production is glorious. Body is ready.

I've always preferred him as a rapper but it is what it is. If the sound and music is on point, then I can still appreciate it.

What did you think of this new track?

I mean the dude is so talented that I have faith this will be dope regardless. Plus if it's just going to be a singing album he probably will drop a rap album during the summer. I stopped watching ATL, so I can binge watch after the semester and BUY the dvds, so I don't know what the directions is going to for next season but I would predict he's going to have some rap tracks for that..

from what i remember from pharos, there was minimal rapping. Zombies and California were the most well received songs. Could see California being his 3005 for this album. it samples charles wrights' express yourself
