    The Free Press in Print Staff Applications About Contact Board Donate THE INDEPENDENT STUDENT NEWSPAPER AT BOSTON UNIVERSITY Thursday, February 23, 2017 NEWS SPORTS FEATURES OPINION BLOGS MULTIMEDIA FEATURES, MUSE REVIEW: Childish Gambino is a melodious shapeshifter with “Awaken, My Love!” December 4, 2016 9:38 pm by Sydney Wertheim Childish Gambino’s new album “Awaken, My Love!” is a portrait of a man in transition. Gambino, born Donald Glover, has gone “Awaken, My Love!” is Donald Glover’s third studio album as through multiple career shifts, from acting on NBC’s Childish Gambino. PHOTO COURTESY GLASSNOTE RECORDS “Community,” to his career as a rapper with successful breakthrough studio albums “Camp” and “Because the Internet.” Gambino, working in multiple artistic fields, has forged a career buying into the modern millennial lifestyle: trying on all hats, seeing which one fits. It seems that in regard to Gambino’s music career, his success is derived from his understanding of combining artful composition with meaningful rap. Gambino often uses technology to his advantage in his musical themes and mixes. Until this most recent album, Gambino had been on a trajectory to be known as a rapper with soulful embellishments. Gambino’s newest studio release, however, may prove to be another shedding-of-the-skin moment in his movement forward as an artist: the album is a retro extravaganza, minus the classic raps. Without the rapping, the record otherwise plays as a solid funk album, audibly smooth and soulful. The one problem, however, is that

  • I'm Not a Rapper: Donald Glover Aka Childish Gambino's Search For
    I’m Not a Rapper: Donald Glover aka Childish Gambino’s search for authenticity in the hip-hop industry Natalie Robertson Virginia Tech I’m not a rapper: Donald Glover aka Childish Gambino’s search for authenticity in the hip-hop industry In Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Polonius gives Laertes this advice: “This above all: to thine own self be true.” The notion of being real and not false has played a firm role in society since the early 1600s, and perhaps earlier. ‘Keeping it real’ transcends cultural boundaries that are normally predetermined and untouched, from English literature to hip-hop music. In the hip-hop industry, authenticating oneself reigns paramount among all feats. Whether it is the car you drive, the people you know or the music you produce, such factors aid hip-hop artists in their quest for authenticity. On the other hand, what factors hinder artists as they try to ‘keep it real’? Could one of those elements involve an artist’s acting career? In this paper, I will examine actor Donald Glover’s transition from acting to rapping under the stage name Childish Gambino. In addition, I will examine the cultural nuances associated with authenticity. Although Childish Gambino uses many authenticating strategies, he also asserts himself as an individual. My research will dive into if and how this can be attributed to his background in acting. Moreover, I will examine how the rapper persona is similar and/or different to the actor persona. Does he face struggles in authenticating himself because of his overlapping careers in television and film? Specifically, I will assess the ‘keeping it real’ category of authenticity, and how the combination of acting and rapping either hinders or helps Gambino as he tries to be ‘real.’ More generally, I will delve into the other categories of authenticity, including culture, location, sexuality and race.
