10 Anticipated Albums Still To Come In 2019
6. Childish Gambino
Whether it is a publicity stunt or genuine sincerity, gentle soul Donald Glover has stated that he wishes to retire from his Childish Gambino persona. Since his last album release, Glover has become an acclaimed writer, producer and director with his series Atlanta.
It has been three years since his 2016 Grammy nominated "Awaken, My Love!". With the shocking This Is America being revealed as a standalone single, heads turned to next single Summertime Magic for a sign of a new Gambino album. Sadly, there was no news throughout the rest of 2018.
Indeed, the Atlanta rapper was better known for his on-screen talents before the successes of Redbone and This Is America. It turns out Summertime Magic was used in the Glover produced Guava Island movie by Amazon Studios. The film starred himself and Rihanna, so hopefully a musical collaboration could spill over into his fourth album.
One things for sure is that his album will not sound anything like his singing in the TV show Community, which celebrates its tenth anniversary this year.
The Feels Like Summer performer has yet to officially release any new music in 2019, instead announcing more tours. Perhaps he isn’t ready to retire the moniker with his final album just yet.
