Not sure how to explain this one. We all know Donald Glover, er, Childish Gambino has a thing for Asian girls. He’s very open about it in his music. With his Camp album dropping on November 15, he’s now in promo mode. But his tactics are a little, ehrm, different? Okay, they’re straight up weird. According to Sunset in the Rearview, he’s apparently taken on the role of an Asian girl and started a Tumblr that he’s been linking to from his own Tumblr and Twitter.
The Tumblr is pink, and filled with puppies, anime, babies, and gifs. It’s very cute. Buried in it is new Childish material including pictures, videos, and this song “All The Shine,” which is unfinished.
UPDATE: According to Donald’s Twitter:
“The “All the Shine” that’s going around isn’t the “Camp” album version. It’s a live, in studio version I did in NYC about a month ago.”
DOUBLE UPDATE: Hear the final version of this song over at okayplayer

This cut of All the Shine sounds very raw, but I can’t get over the chorus singing, it’s so catchy/good…

“haha everybody is trying to be more unique than the last guy nowadays”
Wow did you even listen to the song? The whole point of it is that CG is representing himself as honestly and truthfully as he can, not to be “unique” or “different” or “hard” in order to seem cool or sell records.
