Childish Gambino Album Release
Polymath has had quite a 2018: 16 Emmy nominations for the stellar second season of his FX show Atlanta and, as rapper-singer, a Grammy win (for traditional R&B performance for “Redbone”) and a surprise No. 1 on the with “This Is America.”.But the End is Near? Post-Grammys, Gambino hinted at stepping away from music, saying, “I like endings. I think they’re important to progress.” In a May interview, collaborator confirmed that the artist’s retirement could be imminent: “I’m on his last album. He’s really not making music after this.”.
He's already blown the music world's mind once this summer, but why stop there? On Wednesday, because apparently the dude is incapable of just sitting back on his laurels and soaking up praise.

Childish Gambino’s New Album Release Date. Currently, we don’t have a set release date for Childish Gambino’s new album, with it said to be releasing sometime in 2018. However, it’s worth noting that the release of This Is America as a single just a couple of months back suggests that the album release date may be pretty soon.
The newly-released tracks dropped out of nowhere, bright and early on July 11, and are part of what Childish Gambino, also known as Donald Glover, has christened the Summer Pack, according to his own tweet announcing the drop. And in case it isn't clear yet from the label and the July release that this new music is intended to be the soundtrack to your roof party or chill beach trip, the songs are titled 'Summertime Magic' and 'Feels Like Summer.' According to Pitchfork, both pieces will be included on the artist's, which is also rumored to be his last.
Or at least, his — so don't freak out too hard. If there's one thing that Glover has proven over the years, it's that he's talented in many feels and full to the brim with inspiration, so it's unlikely that he'll go cold turkey on music.
Childish Gambino 2018 Album
The release date for his upcoming album has yet to be released, but instead of making fans wait around with nothing to bop to, Gambino decided to release two tracks straight to his own YouTube channel, without even messing around with a premium streaming service. He announced the tracks simply, with a tweet of the phrase 'summer pack' and linking out to a page where fans can listen to his new stuff. So far it's just the audio that's been released, with no word on when or whether music videos are forthcoming, but this is more than enough for now because these songs are killer. At first glance, they both have a similar laid-back vibe, perfect to throw on at your summer party. But if you dig a little deeper, there are some subtle differences. 'Summertime Magic' is exactly what you'd expect, with a bouncy beat and sunny, optimistic lyrics expressing summery-sweet adoration for an unnamed woman: 'It’s your summertime magic / Make me feel this way / Girl, your love / Girl, oh you’re my world'.

Where the first track in the Summer Pack is optimistic, the second is realistic, calling attention to the issue of climate change with lyrics that come in subtly at first, and grow more explicit. 'You can feel it in the streets,' he sings in the opening lines, adding, 'On a day like this, the heat / It feels like summer.' But then the message intensifies, calling out water scarcity, global warming, pollution,. 'Every day gets hotter than the one before / Running out of water, it’s about to go down / Go down / Air that killed the bees that we depend upon / Birds were made for singing, waking up to no sound / No sound'. ChildishGambinoVEVO on YouTube The warning is hidden behind smooth vocals and a foot-tapping beat, so on the surface it sounds just like its predecessor on the EP. But as you can see, 'Feels Like Summer' actually has more in common with a previous Gambino song, the critically-acclaimed and released in May.
