On November 15, 2011 Childish Gambino aka Donald Glover will be dropping Camp his first commercial album and I happen to have stumbled upon it a bit early. CHILDISH GAMBINO IS BY FAR THE MOST UNDERRATED RAPPER IN THE GAME. I only capitalize that so that people realize that I truly feel this way. There are many rappers out there with so much hype who cannot compare to Childish lyrically, and because I don't care what people think I'm going to name a few, Waka Flaka Flame, Gucci Mane, and Soulja Boy, to name a few. These guys are given so much admiration, but Childish can make the music there making if he was mute, Childish has metaphor after metaphor that will blow your mind, he talks about what HE wants to talk about and could care less what anyone else thinks of him. He constantly crosses the line and that is fantastic. For example a line from the single "Bonfire" he says "This shit I'm doing this year insanity, i made the beat then murdered it, Casey Anthony", Too soon? Who cares, controversy creates cash. Now here's the catch, he doesn't need the money! He won an emmy for writing on 30 Rock, is in the main cast for NBC's Community which is one of the funniest shows on television. This guy has more talent in his middle finger then half of the rappers people are wasting their time on. I also got Drake's Take Care and Mac Miller's Blue Slide Park and neither one could keep me from prematurely cutting off the album and going back to Camp with Childish Gambino. This cd has the epicness of anything else that came out this year I dare you to listen to the cd in full and not be in love with Childish's flow, So yea I'm giving this a 9/10 and that's only because I'll need room to rate his next album.
