Childish Gambino Shuts Down Retirement & Teases New Music

Childish Gambino recently provided a rare update on his musical endeavors, indicating that his long-awaited comeback could be approaching sooner than later.

Recently, he discussed his numerous artistic endeavors that are now taking up his time in an interview. Gambino said, “I feel like it’ll be clear sooner rather than later. It’d be better for people to just tune in, I suppose.”

He continued, “But I’m trying harder to not be cryptic. Tyler [The Creator] is always, like, ‘You’re so cryptic.’ But I’m like, ‘I’m really not.’ I just like suspense, I guess. I think it makes stuff better. But that’s just me.”

He added, “I don’t do this s**t for money. There’s a famous Cam’ron clip that me and my brother love. Cam is on the radio talking to Ma$e or somebody, and he says, ‘Man, I do this because I’m nice. I don’t need the money. I do this because I’m nice, man.'”

Childish Gambino continued, “And I’m like, yeah, I do this because I’m nice. I don’t think I’d ever stop, because of like… I always liked it because I liked it. I never did it because it was like, man, this is a good way to get put on or something. I like the feeling of it. I do this because I’m nice. In a certain way, I think that makes me old school.”

Which artist are you looking forward to dropping a new album that hasn’t dropped a project in awhile?
