Who is Childish Gambino?
When he’s not busy writing for television, performing with his sketch group Derrick Comedy, or acting on
the NBC comedy Community, Donald Glover somehow finds the time to make beats and rap as his alter ego,
Childish Gambino.
The project started as Glover’s pragmatic solution to finding someone to rhyme over the beats he had been
making in his spare time, and then began to take on a life of its own. In 2008, Glover released his
first record as Childish Gambino, Sick Boi, and followed it up the next year with Poindexter.
In 2010 he released two mixtapes, I Am Just a Rapper and I Am Just a Rapper 2, which found him rapping
over indie rock gems like Sleigh Bells’ “Infinity Guitars” and Grizzly Bear’s “Two Weeks.” Later that
year, he released his third full-length underground album, Culdesac. In 2011, he came out with his first
album, Camp. Please contact SME today to book Childish Gambino.
