Mr. Glover appears to be showing some love for California’s Bay Area with this latest single, named for a street in Oakland.
The song comes as the third or fourth leak off his upcoming album The Internet, but it appears that this time it’s actually legit (if you’ll recall, Childish Gambino wasn’t thrilled about “Sweatpants” leaking).
“Telegraph Avenue” sees Childish dropping the gangster vibe for something that might invoke comparisons to Drake or The Weeknd. There’s solid production behind the track, and the details come out really well after the fourth or fifth listen. Personally, I think this one gets better every time I hear it.
