Because the Internet

by Childish Gambino

Because the Internet cover art

Donald Glover's second album as Childish Gambino is a high-concept, multi-media project exploring digital alienation and existential dread. 'Because the Internet' features a wide array of sounds, from glossy pop and R&B to glitchy, abstract hip-hop. It is a dense and ambitious record that captured the fragmented, anxious spirit of the social media age with biting wit and self-reflection.
