About this episode
The Music Snobs take on the future by examining one of the present’s most talked about artists: Donald Glover aka Childish Gambino. With his 2016 album “Awaken, My Love”, the creator of TV’s “Atlanta" elevated himself from hip-pop prodigy to neo-funk pioneer—or did he? Scoop, Isaac, Jehan, and Arthur question the impact of Childish on the current soundscape and wonder if his explorations can ignite tomorrow’s sound. And to top off the episode, the fellas ask each other what was the most important music happening that took place during the Snobs’ infamous 2016 break? Buckle up.
