Childish Gambino, AKA actor/comedian Donald Glover, dropped a massive - and free! - mixtape last October called STN MTN / KAUAI. Now, after a brief tease via Twitter (he deleted everything but a link to a timer), he's airing his new video for "Sober".
The track is from last year's mixtape, and sadly the video doesn't follow the dramatic narrative begun by "Telegraph Ave", but it is still a top notch addition to Gambino's AV canon.
Stumbling through a diner, apparently very un-sober, he attempts to cajole the target of his affections with R&B vocals, air-banding, a well-placed dove and a bizarre collection of dance moves.
