    I listened to 'Because the Internet' on a flight to Hong Kong a couple of years ago and I really liked it. I didn't follow up on it though. This is a great work of art though, caught me off guard. Had no idea he was an actor or anything like that, talented fella.

    Been a fan of this dude for a long time. He's another artist that has got shit on by white hip hop/rap critics for a long time just because he serves as his own creator and didn't come down through the pre-approved Jay-Z/Dr Dre/Kanye pipeline they think is important to establish "credibility".

    His "Atlanta" series is fucking fantastic. Sometimes funny, sometimes creepy, sometimes thoughtful, and almost always weird. Catch this seasons "Teddy Perkins" episode if anybody gets a chance.

    Yeah the music's pretty cack but the video is 'controversial' so it gets noticed.

    I don't think this particular song is all that but it does work really well with the video, which is fantastic.

    Let´s face facts though: Donald Glover is an ´accomplished´ actor....but his music is very hit-and-miss.
