Glover recently took to social media to debut some new music, and described his Instagram live as “a rollout dummy”. He played three new tracks, including the previously leaked “Human Sacrifice” and a full version of “Little Foot Big Foot”, expected to be featured on his next album Atavista, an updated version of 3.15.20.

He also announced the release of its follow-up, which he described as “the final Childish Gambino album, a soundtrack for the fans.” It will be connected to his next film Bando Stone & The New World, set to be released this summer.

Glover dropped hints about retiring the Childish Gambino act on several occasions over the years, and he previously told HuffPost that he’s considering ending his music career because it doesn’t feel “necessary” anymore.

“There’s nothing worse than like a third sequel, like a third movie and we’re like, ‘again?’ You know, I like it when something’s good and when it comes back there’s a reason to come back, there’s a reason to do that,” Glover told HuffPost.

Summertime Magic

Childish Gambino may as well have invented summer with this 2018 summertime anthem. No Childish Gambino playlist is complete without it.

This Is America

For a song with a political message, “This Is America” is pretty upbeat. The crowd always goes wild for it and people who don’t usually like rap end up rapping along.

Feels Like Summer

“Feels Like Summer” gets our vote for the music video of the summer. The summer vibes may even beat last year’s big hit “Summertime Magic.”

Redbone

“Redbone” is the song that got people who didn’t know who Childish Gambino was listening to nothing but Childish Gambino. It’s a song to chill to, dance to, and enjoy the festival vibes too.
