Childish Gambino + Beck – Silk Pillow

Rio de Janeiro / these bitches lookin’ like Xuxa

I’ve been quick to accept him from the go and then to discredit Donald Glover’s rap career as his official album dropped, but with the release of this song, featuring Beck, I think he has won me over, once again.

The Beck feature is nice, but what really did it was him referencing Xuxa, whom I grew up watching on the telly and salivating over, as a child growing up in Brazil. Random, obscure knowledge does it for me.

Expect this song to be released, along with a few other great ones, on his upcoming mixtape.
