Well, that’s exactly what Donald Glover, known as Childish Gambino in the music world, has been building up to. Glover has been dropping hints about new music for a while now, but in April, things really started to heat up. He began sharing sneak peeks of songs on Instagram Live, getting fans all hyped up. And guess what? He didn’t just tease—he delivered! On May 12th, Glover dropped his new album titled “Atavista” out of the blue, surprising everyone with its sudden arrival.
If you’re a big Childish Gambino fan, you might remember his album from 2020 called “3.15.20.” “Atavista” is sort of like a fresh take on that album.

Glover has always used his music to express his feelings and experiences, and “Atavista” is no different.

It’s like Glover is inviting us into his world and sharing his journey with us.
But “Atavista” isn’t just about the music. Glover went all out and made a music video to go with it, directed by the talented Hiro Murai. The video is like a mini movie, adding a whole new dimension to the songs. And check this out—it features some pretty cool people, like Quinta Brunson and Monyett Crump.
