Watch: Childish Gambino - Sober

Donald Glover continues his ascension to smoothest cat there is..

Childish Gambino Profile

Alright that lead-in was a bit of a misnomer. I can't really think of anyone cooler than Childish Gambino at the moment. And Sober is one of my favourite songs of his. And this video clip is the perfect accompaniment, although one that requires a certain suspension of disbelief: that the crazy girl playing on her phone ignoring Donald Glover's silky smooth dance tricks wouldn't have dropped that phone the second he approached her. Killer video clip from a dude who has been killing it for a while now. We still can't wait for that TV show he finally got a green light to pilot.
