Jun 24, 2023This is so deep once you learn the screen play and listen to what donald is saying also best album ever
-
Mar 6, 2023The "shut up I haven't shown who I am" that I required. What a great story and listen while you have the script, I think it's one of those few experiences that you require at least once in a lifetime to do.

Dec 6, 2018Donald Glover's transition to music continues with this unique project, where is personality can be felt throughout. Gambino seems to have no problem spitting aggressively over more electronic beats or stepping it back and singing a bit more.
-
Dec 4, 2018This is Childish Gambino's best album in my opinion, right beside "Awaken, My Love!". The beats mixed with Donald's slick rhymes make this a nearly flawless album. My favourite Songs are: 3005, The Worst guys, Telegraph Ave, Earth: The Oldest Computer and Life: The Biggest Troll. My least favourite track(s) would have to be Worldstar.

Jun 1, 2018Weird album but a decent one nonetheless. A lot of tracks felt pointless and like they didn't add anything.

Mar 1, 2018DONALD GLOVER IS A GENIUS! He is the definition of can't stop, won't stop. That is all.

May 1, 2017A decent record and surprised me a lot because I thought I would hate this album. Some great singles carry this album, but a lot of the songs seem like they're only filler. Some of the production seems a little too clean at times. Childish continues with his great flow, but that doesn't help with the lack of catchy or even memorable songs.

Apr 2, 2017In retrospect, this is Gambino's best album. The production value here is incredible, a blend of dreamy space synths and low basslines. Songs like Urn and Flight of the Navigator send the listener off into a dreamy headspace. The music itself acts as a drug, and its glorious. This is the album that proved Gambino could work.

Mar 11, 2017This is one of my favorite Gambino albums, it's fun as **** to listen to. It's not meant to change the way people rap but it goes to show how talented of an individual Donald Glover is.

Nov 15, 2016This is one of the best albums ever in my opinions. The songs are absolutely gorgeous and the production is some of the best I've ever heard. The songs are so diverse and experimental that it's almost not impossible to get at least intrigued by this album.

Feb 17, 2016Arguably one of my favorite rap albums of all time. He's very conceptual and heartwarming. He shows his creative mindset and his talents. the production and lyricism on this album are fascinating,

Mar 2, 2015This dodgy, terribly produced and overall unsatisfying album relies on out of place flows and low lying bass lines to keep it afloat. Glover is obviously not suited the genre bending to suit himself and portray dull and uneventful things in his life

Nov 6, 2014A rather mysterious, yet relatable album from Gambino. He's done it again, with cool beats, strange vibes, and even stranger lyrics. I love it. An overall great album from an overall great rapper, actor, and comedian. (favorite songs: 3005, The Crawl, Sweatpants)

Q MagazineJan 28, 2014This is a luxurious but ultimately hollow Faberge egg of a record. [Feb 2014, p.121]
-
The SourceJan 8, 2014Because The Internet stands on its own musically. The project undoubtedly stands much taller when put in context of all the additional material released in order to create something bigger. [Dec 2013/Jan 2014, p.89]

Jan 3, 2014As a concept album on man's most abstract concept, Because the Internet is more than worth the download.
