Donald Glover Explains Why He's Killing Childish Gambino

Over the weekend, Donald Glover ended his Governors Ball set with a message about his rap alter-ego Childish Gambino.

“I’ll see you for the last Gambino album," he told the festival crowd in New York City.

“There’s nothing worst than like a third sequel, like a third movie and we’re like, ‘again?’” he explained. “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.”

Being punk just always felt really good to me and we always looked at 'Atlanta' as a punk show and I feel like the direction I would go with Childish Gambino wouldn’t be punk anymore," Glover explained. "As much as ‘Redbone’ is a punk song because it’s a gospel song that’s on the radio, I’m like there’s only so far you can go before you just are the radio.”
