Childish Gambino – Atavista

For years, Childish Gambino’s Atavista hid in plain sight. When he released an unfinished version of the record on March 15, 2020, it spend just 12 hours on his website before he pulled it down. Reappearing on streaming a week later as 3.15.20, the project brought up almost as many questions as sparkling new-soul anthems, which still sounded slicker than the average as raw cuts titled after timestamps.
