In case you forgot, Childish Gambino has his very own community radio called Gilga Radio. In the past, Gambino has frequently previewed new music, featured comedy skits and fun conversations up here — and this time is no different.
After a considerable time of Gambino being silent, the rapper has decided to premiere a new track for his core fans on Gilga. A soothing and sensual song with modified afrobeats at its backbone, the track is a quintessentially Childish Gambino laid back joint — very reminiscent of his work on ‘Feel Like Summer.’
Ravyn Lenae’s vocals on the track are delicate, yet firm and confident as they allows the listener to embrace the floating sensation evoked by the reverbed vocal runs.
Nothing too complex, yet tasteful in its minimalism as guitars strum softly in the background. The project really makes it seem like Childish Gambino is at peace with where he’s placed in his music career, and is taking things easy.

For fans that know that Donald Glover intends on retiring the Childish Gambino persona soon, the track also marks the beginning of the end in a way — with projects like Atavista and Bando Stone (deemed to be last album under this alias) no longer in his way. So, what do you think happens next?
