Ready for a musical journey? Childish Gambino (aka Donald Glover), just unveiled the tracklist for his upcoming album, ‘Bando Stone & The New World,’ and it’s packed with surprising collaborations.
Donald Glover dropped the news on Instagram, teaming up with Spotify to reveal the exciting lineup. Fans will find features from big names like Yeat, Jorja Smith, Flo Milli, and Fousheé. This album promises something fresh and unexpected.
The album, set to release on July 19, includes a unique rock-infused track titled ‘Lithonia.’ On this track, Glover sings with raw emotion: ‘Cody LaRae/ He had a break, he’s findin’ out/ That nobody gives a fuck/ I did my job, I paid my dues, love is for fools/ ‘Cause nobody gives a fuck.’ It’s a clear departure from his previous style, adding a compelling twist to his musical narrative.
Fans are buzzing about Glover retiring his ‘Childish Gambino’ moniker. In an interview with the New York Times, he explained that he no longer feels connected to the name. ‘It really was just like, ‘Oh, it’s done,” he said. ‘It’s not fulfilling. And I just felt like I didn’t need to build in this way anymore.’ This album will be his last under the Childish Gambino name.
Following his musical renaissance, Glover is gearing up for a massive world tour that starts in August 2024 and runs until February 2025. He’ll be joined by Willow Smith and Amaarae, making it a must-see event for fans worldwide.
And that’s not all. There’s also a film titled ‘Bando Stone & The New World’ in the works. The movie, produced by RCA and Gilga, features Glover as Bando Stone, a famous musician navigating a wild, post-apocalyptic world. It’s set to hit IMAX theaters and promises a mix of creepy and comedic elements.
With a star-studded album, a massive world tour, and an intriguing movie, Donald Glover’s ‘Bando Stone & The New World’ is poised to make waves. Fans are in for a thrilling ride!
