New Obsession: Atlanta

My current obsession is FX Original Series, ‘Atlanta’ starring Donald Glover aka Childish Gambino. I really wish people would stop sleeping on this man, he has such talent! He’s a rapper, writer, stand up comedian, actor, and surprisingly an amazing singer. Start the video at 1:20 to bypass the interview.

Oh, I just love me some him!

His most recent creative venture is his new show ‘Atlanta’ on FX in which he is the creator, writer, and star. His oddball character “Earn” is a practically homeless Princeton dropout trying to find his way in life in order to provide for his daughter. He sees a prospective lucrative business opportunity managing his cousin and local rapper celebrity, Paper Boi. The two have already gotten themselves into some sh*t and we’re only on episode 2. I wish Netflix could have picked this show up because it is definitely a show you’ll want to binge watch. 25 minutes just leaves you wanting more!

Overall, the show is witty, artistic, and honest. I’d highly recommend it. Check out episode one ‘The Big Bang’ below:
