Back in April, Glover revealed plans to release two more Childish Gambino albums before retiring the alias. The first being Atavista, the self-described “finished version” of 3.15.20, put out four years ago, and Bando Stone and the New World being the second.
“It’s a big goodbye album,” Glover told Zane Lowe during a recent interview about the 17-track LP that includes collaborations with Amaarae, Jorja Smith, Chlöe, his son Legend, and more.
“The soundtrack forces the audience to participate in a way that I don’t feel like most things force you to participate. It forces you to have an imagination,” Donald told Zane. “All of that stuff allows you to have to participate, which a lot of stuff doesn’t ask you to do, which is why I think a lot of stuff feels flat.”
Before the album’s arrival, Glover dropped a trailer for the project’s corresponding film, though an official release date has yet to announced.
Additionally, as part of the final hoorah for his Childish Gambino era, Donald will be hitting the road later this summer for his previously announced New World Tour. The international tour kicks off on August 11 in North America, before heading to Europe, and Oceania, bringing WILLOW, and Amara along for the ride as openers on select dates.
