Donald Glover Rants About the Lack of Fun During IG Live, Seemingly Referencing Kendrick and Drake Feud
Donald Glover, better known as Childish Gambino, has seemingly weighed in on the Kendrick Lamar-Drake feud and believes a more significant issue is at play: a lack of fun.
During an Instagram Live rant on Wednesday (June 26), the multihyphenate alluded to the now infamous rap beef while revealing his goal for the rollout of his upcoming album Bando Stone in the New World.
“The problem is, we’re not having enough fun. So this rollout that’s coming, it’s mostly about fun, I’m trying to have fun. I feel like there’s just people not having enough fun […]” the “Redbone” emcee shared.
Gambino reflected on fan reactions to monumental moments and how it’s shifted over the years. “When I was a kid, there were big things that would unite us, and I just feel bad for y’all. This generation just does not get — y’all get, like, bad stuff. Everything that everybody can get in on is usually f—ked up,” he explained while petting farm animals.
“Even this year, the most fun we’ve had was from a fight. A song from a fight, from a rap beef. Which I enjoyed every minute of. It was very fun. But still, kinda negative in a certain light, I guess,” he added, referencing Kendrick’s chart-topping diss song “Not Like Us.”
Gambino also clarified some info regarding the new project, noting that his next single, “Lithonia,” is set to arrive on July 2nd.
“That [information] leaked, it pissed me off,” he said. “I know who did it – Audiomack — no soup for you. You’re not getting the album, that’s the lane I’m in right now.”
