ive always been childish, call me maggie simpson

Hello blog world,
Its been roughly 6 months since I last posted...which is way too long. Lots of things have happened since then, and lots of good music has passed us by. I'm in the middle of exams so I figure I can procrastinate a bit by blogging, lol.

My recent obsession is Childish Gambino, aka Donald Glover. He got his name from a Wu-Tang Clan name generator, haha badass. Donald is also a triple threat - writer, actor, rapper. He wrote a bit for 30 rock, he is in the TV show Community (good show btw), and he is an unreal rapper. I first saw this guy in the Derrick Comedy youtube videos from back in the high school days. Hes come pretty far since then..

I cant stop listening to his rap stuff. He has some pretty clever lines. Here are some I enjoy:
  • e.e. cummin' on her face, now thats poetry in motion
  • fucking bitches left and right, my dick is ambidextrous
  • im running this bitch, youre just a dog walker
  • fuck macaulay culkin, never going home alone
  • NBC is not the only thing im coming on tonight
  • im so cheesy, ho, my swag's got high cholesterol (this line relates to my life pretty well, haha)
etc, etc.

Here's his first music video ever for the song Freaks and Geeks. Its aight:
(aw man i cant make youtube vids cool colours anymore, and proper formatting is tough shit).

Furthermore, check out the Jamie xx remix of Adele's rolling in the deep ft. Childish, his remix of AOTL called break, or pretty much anything from his mixtapes. Donald/Childish is coming to Toronto on May 16 to do some stand up for his Iamdonald tour. I wish I could go but unfortunately, I am starting intercession that day and will be in Londy.

This tumblr is also my new favourite. Who knew Gambino lines and hipster pics would go so well together? http://hipsterchildishgambino.tumblr.com/

Anyway, happy exam studying people! (And hopefully this nice weather holds up. We dont need any more snow in London, eff)

Keep it dope,
Jen(n)
