Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music Donald Glover — aka Childish Gambino — makes you wait for it. He’ll be quiet for a year or two and you’ll idly wonder occasionally where’s he been, but then suddenly he’ll announce or even surprise-drop a wildly elaborate new album or a new season of “Atlanta” or a low-key film that happens to star Rihanna or, as was the case this year, two albums, a fully booked world tour and an accompanying film that we still don’t know much about, and probably won’t until he wants us to.
The elaborateness of the rollout is more than matched by the depth and complexity of the projects (not to mention the NDAs) — you could conceivably spend hours unpacking the references and meanings of the lyrics and music and staging and wardrobe and everything, or you can just enjoy it without thinking too hard about what you’re enjoying and why.
He likes mystique and seemingly magic tricks and that makes it fun for fans too. This latest round is the self-proclaimed “final” project from his Childish Gambino persona and involves his latest album, the excellent “Bando Stone and the New World,” a forthcoming film of the same name, a re-release of his equally excellent “3.15.2020” album — which he rush-released in the early days of the pandemic but has remixed, revamped and retitled “Atavista” — and, possibly most elaborate of all, this “New World Tour” that alighted at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center Monday for the first of a two-night stand.
