I hope our readers out there watch Community, which is one of the most creative TV shows out there. Hats off to creator Dan Harmon, who infuses each episode with some sparkle of innovation that separates it from the horde of milquetoast network drivel (BTW, if you want any more evidence of Harmon’s genius, check out his failed pilot for Heat Vision & Jack, one of the most leftfield comedies this side of Get a Life starring Jack Black and Owen Wilson, directed by Ben Stiller. Brilliant.). As one of the main actors of the show, you’d think Donald Glover would be content. But he’s not — Glover prefers to spend his off time shaping his rap alias Childish Gambino. After several mixtapes and guest appearances, Glover drops Childish Gambino’s debut album Camp on November 15. But if you want to hear it first in its entirety before purchase, NPR has uploaded the full album to stream which we have below. So give it a listen, stream his first single “Heartbeat” below, and if you like what you hear pre-order it now Amazon.
