Childish Gambino, a.k.a. Donald Glover, a.k.a. Troy Barnes, has released a couple new tracks recently that demonstrate a new voice that Glover seems to have honed since his 2011 debut, CAMP. “Tell Me” is his latest, and he’s brought in Heems from Das Racist to collaborate. Listen below.
Here’s another new tune from our favorite accidental find, Saint Motel. The indie-pop band recently released “1997” off of their upcoming debut album Voyeur (due out in July).
And in typical Saint Motel fashion, It’s catchy and fun. We think you’ll like it.
