Other than briefly mentioning the re-release of his album, Atavista, we haven’t talked much about Donald Glover/Childish Gambino. I’m still upset I didn’t write about the trailer for his movie, which shares the same name as his new album, Bando Stone & The New World Order—something I’m actually looking forward to.
Let’s make up for it by discussing the music video for a song from the Bando Stone & The New World Order album, “Lithonia.” The visuals for the rock song are simple until the end. Childish Gambino and his band play in a sparsely packed room until they start making faces and (spoiler alert) Gambino’s eyes explode on a woman in the front row. Then it turns into a horror movie (I guess).
Check out the Jack Begert-directed music video below. Bando Stone & The New World Order is supposed to be Childish Gambino’s last album, and there is currently no release date for the accompanying movie.
