Childish Gambino – …Awaken, My Love! [Album]

Oh yes, it’s here my friends. Childish Gambino has finally dropped his highly anticipated …Awaken, My Love!

…Awaken, My Love! is unlike anything out right now. It’s unique. We get a mixture of funk, soul, and R&B – with literally no rapping, which is surprisingly ok. Gambino has taken a 360 turn on his music style, and has successfully resurrected a forgotten genre.

…Awaken, My Love! will have you feeling several types of ways. Each song tells a different story. “Have Some Love” puts you at a family reunion BBQ, bonding with the loved ones. “Zombies” puts you in a scene straight outta Stranger Things. “Redbone” will take you back to being a youngin’ in your grandpa’s living room, jamming classic vinyl.  “California” will take you to an island in the middle of nowhere, sippin’ on a piña colada.

Childish Gambino is a man of many, many talents and continues to amaze us left and right. Peep …Awaken, My Love! for yourself below:

Funkadelic – Ain’t That Funkin’ Kinda Hard On You (Remix) (Feat. Kendrick Lamar & Ice Cube)

For those who love hearing some new Kendrick Lamar, this is a good time. For those who loved his live performance of “Untitled II”, this is a great time. On a new album from George Clinton‘s Funkadelic, Kendrick is featured reworking “Untitled II”s first verse for “Ain’t That Funkin Kinda Hard On You”. This is a remixed version which also features a verse from none other than Ice Cube. We all know that Kendrick thrives on funky instrumentals, so this George Clinton track comes pretty natural as he spits a familiar verse over the ambient funk. You can listen to “Ain’t That Funkin Kinda Hard On You” below.
