At this point, I honestly don’t know how much more we can say to convince you Childish Gambino is the future. He broke onto the mainstream a little over a month ago with his “Freaks And Geeks” video, then absolutely exploded upon the release of his free EP a couple weeks later. Now, roughly another two weeks later, Gambino drops another free mixtape for fans. Read the full description of I Do Not Talk below, then stream it and, as always, grab a copy for yourself!

My friend Errol and I have been working on I Do Not Talk for a very long time. He’s been perfecting the tracklist and has done a truly amazing job. The mixtape starts off with a Donald that is rough around the edges and takes you from there through his artistic development one song at a time. You see him rectify aspects of himself, such as changing his voice to sound nasally, and grow into the artist that we know today.

Donald might dislike his older material and without question has gotten better, but there is some serious integrity in the writing from the beginning that is made clear on this mixtape. The music selection of I Do Not Talk perfectly leads listeners into Culdesac. And in my opinion, is a must have for all fans and Hip Hop aficionados.
