In just a few days (this Sunday), Mixcloud.com will premiere our “Celebration of Curation” Mix for their month-long one year anniversary party. The mix comes courtesy of our multi-talented friend Brainbheats. Before the mix drops this Sunday, I want to put the spotlight on one of my favorite cuts from it, Childish Gambino’s Grizzly Bear sampling “Bitch, Look At Me Now”.

Childish Gambino nee Donald Glover may not be a household name is, but I’m willing to bet you’re familiar with his other projects. In recent years he’s spent time in the writer’s room for 30 Rock, played Troy in NBC’s Community, and he even launched an ultimately unsuccessful viral Twitter campaign to cast him as the first ever Black Spider-Man (he lost to this British/American dude[?], who’s also in the Facebook movie). Apparently Glover is also a more-than decent rapper, Childish Gambino, with two mixtapes to his name. If you need any type of introduction to Childish Gambino, let “Bitch, Look At Me Now” be it.
