Branded early on as “too white” or “too gay”, Gambino wasn’t concerned with fitting the “hip-hop image” and instead used his alternative identity to elevate his profile. Not only can the boy rap, but he can sing too. On 2011’s debut album Camp he displayed a blurring of styles ranging from pop to dance. Since then the Georgia raised Renaissance man has been busy with his TV and film career, but 2016 sees him fill the Gambino-less hole in his fans hearts with third album, Awaken, My Love! His second album Because the Internet in 2013 saw his style merge deeper into the obtuse, the visuals and production for ‘Sweatpants’ the perfect example. If you couldn’t tell by the album artwork and first single ‘Me and Your Mama’, he has continued to blur genres and send-up purist sensibilities by tapping deep into ’70s psychedelic rock and funk, specifically Parliament Funkadelic. Not in the Drake sense, at least, where there’s a seamless transition between each style.

Instead, Anderson blends both harmonies and slick lyricism effortlessly over soulful and electronic production. #Mick jenkins isaiah rashad twitter download#.#Mick jenkins isaiah rashad twitter tv#.#Mick jenkins isaiah rashad twitter license#.#Mick jenkins isaiah rashad twitter full#.
