Yo ngl as corny as this dude was he gave a voice to more black kids like himself in general and doesn’t get enough credit for it tbh
Most people say tyler or cudi but this dude might’ve been the most influential to the blerds cause he was center stage with it on nbc and s***
his best project besides Awaken is the Royalty mixtape btw
those are also his only good projects
Bino is the only rapper I give a pass to “corny bars” tbh
He’s a comedian at heart
He brings that into every artform he does, whether it’s shows, movies or music
So ofc he’s gonna be saying jokes in music
Maybe I’m biased cus I’m a fan but he gets a pass
yeah youre biased
this his best early song I think
holy s*** this song just made me remember this song in the background of a kickback and everyone blown out their mind wtf
i did not need that throw back
yes I have listened to all of those. This is my opinion. Why do I have to share the same opinion as you about Donald glover?
sassy proper always snaps
"Don't you know that I'm a rapist, ask a track"
Edit: nigga then says these smart middle class black kids need a role model im weak
If you were a teenager during that time that role model line meant A LOT to us. I used to see it on my FB all the time.

oh nah, i agree/was there and he def was my role model for sure (even though I wasn't middle class)
looking back though, somethings just dont age well yk
still love bro
Are there asian girls here? Minority report!
Now he has a TV show where he's sleeping with a cute Asian girl lol
DG is one of my goats, say whatever you want about him but he put us, black nerds, on the map
im sure i would still like royalty if i listened to it today
Royalty era was always cool tho
Now he has a TV show where he's sleeping with a cute Asian girl lol
Everything he rapped about came true
He became simba in the lion king (What kind of love)
That show on FX ? Became Atlanta (Yaphett Kotto)
Became spiderman (well adjacent) and the inspiration for miles Morales (Do ya like)
Became a Star Wars lead by playing Lando (Star Wars t shirt high school year book photo& All Y’all)
Wayne influence
Actually one of the few posts in the thread that didn’t get acknowledged. It’s pretty evident during the sick boi -Culdesac era that he rapped nasally because he was inspired by wayne

yeah growing up i knew some people saying they really related to him. not a fan of the music but i respect him
to think i met glover in line at a venue during this era
i actually thought he was corny as a mf w the little rap i had heard at the time, and i wasnt a fan of community so i really wasnt star struck at all
he was talking to his friend how it was kinda annoying that ppl always knew his from random s*** instead of his bigger roles. with hearing this, I waited a bit and then i got his attention and asked him "hey man, are you that guy from the bro rape video???"
i said it as a joke, but he took it seriously i think so he was kinda annoyed LMAO
actors take that seriously i told sucre from prison break that i really loved “i am 12” from benchwarmers and his was almost offended
“Hey, pardon me but I couldn’t help but notice that you are very asian - that’s kinda my type “
Alright, I'm down with the black girls of every single culture
Filipino, Armenian girls on my sofa
Yeah, I like a white girl, sometimes we get together
Need a thick chick though
So it's black and yellow, black and yellow
im sure i would still like royalty if i listened to it today
Royalty holds up. Anything before that doesn't
