This attitude changes on the next record “Because the Internet” as the production gets more hip-hop beat driven and less alt-rock driven. That being said, I see where you’re coming from in that if someone asked me which of his albums was I’d say “Camp” without a doubt as well. This is the most mainstream music he’s ever released, but I’d venture to say it remains the best. What it do, bitch? They couldn’t feel me, no vocation His work on Community was sublime absurdity, and the auteur’s touch he brings to Atlanta is simply brilliant.

This remains true with his new release, 3.15.20, which he also has released as a single-track opus, which may explain the decision to have most of the individual tracks here titled as timestamps. ℗ 2020 MCDJ RECORDING, UNDER LICENSE TO RCA RECORDS, A DIVISION OF SONY MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT.
All that said, I do love Childish Gambino’s debut album, 2011’s Camp. It was a surprise, then, to see a third name listed prominently in the credits for Childish Gambino’s new album, 3.15.20: DJ Dahi co-produced nine of the 12 tracks. If I had it my way I would love three versions of “Camp”, but I also respect his evolution as an artist and find the production and lyricism on all three of the albums that follow equally great in their own way.

While they be sleepin’, I be onto that new shit, ayy, [Verse 2] That mischievous, mercurial nature carries over to the music itself—he explores the darker hues of the outré, playing with genre as much he does disjointed sound effects—atmospheric noise, glitches, distortion, uncanny Auto-Tune. Editors’ Notes I see he released a fourth album this past March that totally missed my radar, so maybe I should give that a listen. While they be sleepin’, I be onto that new shit (Ayy!) 3.15.20 is a logical progression from his experimental inclinations of the past that latches onto some of his most eccentric impulses and thrusts them into overdrive. I’ve seen it all, like I’m John Mayer’s penis hole Check Maxim.” (damn that’s a good lyric), but also his more reflective lines such as “My mom used to quote me psalm verses she don’t look at me like I’m the same person”.
