Childish Gambino’s ‘Bando Stone and the New World’: All 17 Songs Ranked
The Hollywood polymath released his final album on his moniker of Childish Gambino at midnight July 19, featuring Amaraee, Jorja Smith, and more.
Although he’s detailed the reasons why in various interviews, his desire for a definitive, conclusive moment feels proper for a man who creates memorable characters like Troy Barnes and Earn Marks but has never committed to any one creation eternally. Dylan Wiggins is credited on numerous tracks on Bando Stone for bass and acoustic guitar, two instruments that makes the sweet-sounding “Dadvocate” a tune that could take Childish Gambino’s voice over to airwaves his rapping never penetrated. “My son watching Bluey like we both crip,” isn’t the only line that doesn’t quite land on “Survivors,” but the lasting impression is found within the synthy chords and thumping kicks that does well to compliment Chloe and Childish when they’re intertwined like lost relatives reuniting on the chorus.
