Childish Gambino

Some people know how to make awesome art when they're drunk. I have a best friend who can take a bag of Franzia and turn it into fuel for hilarious yet articulate raps while looping tracks on his computer. Thing is though, when the hangover sets in that frame of mind is gone along with some of your memory. Perhaps the same happened to Childish Gambino, who may have been slapping the bag o' wine in November, only to find out he had made an awesome track in March. Donald Glover reports on his previously unreleased track:

I forgot about this. Me and Ludwig made this during Thanksgiving. We spent a week in Brooklyn makin shit. It’s not mixed or mastered and I wrote/recorded this drunk, but yeah ...

But yeah . . . it's good. "The Longest Text Message" can be heard above and snagged for keeps below.
