Childish Gambino, aka Donald Glover, has released a ton of music recently. After the huge success of his debut album Camp he has continuously released free songs for his fans in a GOOD Friday style.

The latest track is a bizarre one as he has partnered up with iconic American singer Beck to produce it. The four time platinum alternative rock musician opens the track with a rap (seriously) laid on top of a falsetto track, a subtle piano line, and a familiar bass sound. Gambino takes over after a minute and drops an exciting verse that demonstrates his ever improving flow.

It’s not the deepest track lyrically, but from a purely musical perspective it’s a great track, and one that you would not expect to be released free from two high profile artists.

The song is available for free download on I Am Donald.

What do you think of the track? Does the collaboration work? Who else would you like to see featuring on Gambino’s new release? Let us know in the comments!
