- Turn on the lights in here, baby
Extra bright, I want y'all to see this
Turn on the lights in here, baby
Know what I mean, want you to see everything
Want you to see all of the-
Hollerin' at this Japanese girl, Asian mommy
But is it too soon for Japanese girls too tsunami
Is it racist if I say she tastes like edamame?
Was I supposed to stay uncool? Please remind me
(What the fuck is up?)
Yeah, it's Cheezy, ho
I'm so cheesy, ho, my swag's got high cholesterol
I know y'all girls, I met them all
You're her ex-man like Cannonball
I ain't got shit to say to ya, I'm known for bad behavior
Look at me
Man, I went to the W from Double Tree
Makin' out with girls who black and yellow like a bumblebee
Can I live up to all this hype they have for me? It's hard to tell
But these girls I'm kissin' chase the blues away like Gargamel
I'm back in the game, coach put me in
T-Pain flow, All I do is Win
With a glass full of McCallan to mess me up
With the cash we can throw out unless we f-ck
Dopeness
After this I hit the highway
I'm headin' west like I'm f-ckin' blowin' Kanye
Read the f-ckin' news, Huey Lewis, n-gga
You can't go ham, you's a Jewish n-gga
Donald Glover, you don't have to call me "Childish"
Except for when I'm flirting with your half-Latino stylist
Photoshoot, beach house playin' Beach House, free wireless
So I can post these pictures on my Web site of her smilin'
I kissed this girl I've liked since back when I was just a sophomore
But I'm afraid to text her "What the f-ck it take so long for?!"
What the f-ck has changed? It it swagger? Is it money?
I still dress the f-ckin' same and my nose is still as ugly
As the day you f-ckin' met me
They tellin' me I'm the rapper for these white kids
'Cause black kids can't possibly like the same shit
I wanna bring you back to the studio, try and get your number
These black girls with natural hair who keep up with their Tumblrs
I like it when you tweet me, you smell like baby lotion
I wanna suck your breasts and finger blast to Frank Ocean
Her p-ssy tastes like vanilla, tasty ho
Clown n-ggas then I kill 'em, Gacy flow
It's crazy how these labels and these blogs are on my dick
I'm Pryor in his last years: comedian who's sick
F-ck, but I am sick, seriously, I don't feel so good
'Cause I don't get sleep, and I'm always travelin'
And I don't go home, and my friends don't call
'Cause I turned off my phone
I've made mistakes, I bumped my head
Inside of this girl, inside of my bed
Whatever, man, I'm just havin' fun
I'm sorry that I f-cked her but now you know that she's not the one
I'm doin' you a favor, like every time I rhyme or write a script or do a movie
There's a million ways to shine, choose one
Instead of what you're doing tonight
I am Donald, coming soon, we got all of the lights
Turn on the lights in here, baby
Extra bright, I want y'all to see this
Turn on the lights in here, baby
Know what I mean, want you to see everything
Want you to see all of the... - Hudba
"I'm heading west like I'm fucking blowing Kanye"
God dammit Gambino, I wasn't prepared and rewinded that like 20 different times
lmao
same i busted to it 😋
@@good-tn9srum, clean up on aisle my pants! 🤣
@@_st4reaterErm… Guys? What the sigma? ☝️🤓
No fucking joke, I was at Bonnaroo 2010 when he debuted this song. He said "this is the biggest crowd I've ever performed in front of AND IT'S FUCKING DOPE" while on top of the big ass speaker. He said "Here's something new nobody has heard" and played this shit. Place went fucking nuts. Will never forget it - was like 15 feet from the stage. Dude is legit.
underrated comment
Hell yeah dude! Musta been quite a fucking trance to experience that. love it
Cum
The original song by kanye west wasn’t even released in 2010 bruz
@@jamesmcgowan8709 mbdtf came out in 2010
It is so meaningful to me when Donald says "there's a million ways to shine, choose one". He's a rapper, director, actor, comedian and musician. He literally does that, just picks a way to shine and goes to town. I'll always come back to this song.
word
its even more important because he says "I'm donald coming soon" and soon after this he made a name for himself as an actor/producer or as Donald instead of gambino.
You: untalented
CG: talented
@@jaxgreg5266 I am Donald was the name of his website.
still listening to this 11 years later. this will never get old.
Don’t ask who’s here in whatever year it is, we never left.
Grayson Horn amen nigga
And never will
Never...
Ever
Damn straight
Never gets old. Been listening to this since 7th grade. I’m now 27.
“ And my friends don’t call ; cause I turned off my phone” that desire to be alone plus the fear of abandonment is hella relatable 😩
"You cant go ham, you a Jewish nigga." -Childish Gambino
As a Jew, I approve of this
Si Dos As a non Jew, I also approve of this.
We don't need your approval
I am Barack Obama, and I approve this message.
gave all the replies likes just cuz
That break down that starts at like 2:20 is very nostalgic for me. I remember being in high school listening to this walking home from school. Reminds me of being out of school and having the rest of the day for yourself.
I wish I could have had this , I was working at McDonald’s lol
Most underrated childish song imo
True
"Chase the blues away like Gargamel." Damn. That's a BAR.
🤦🏾♂️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Is it tho
chase the blues away like gargamel ahaa
Only Childish G. can drop a smurfs reference as smooth as that ;)
***** Haha yeah or anyone else
I don't get it?
BeastJeffrey smurfs
BeastJeffrey Gargamel is the villain in the smurfs and he tries to catch them.
still love Gambino but damn, I kinda miss this version of him.
Couldn't agree more
Pwent Yeh man. This style and flow is unreal.
h
+Pwent MOST truest comment here.. i feel you
fr shit was 🔥
Gambino is too underrated!!!
Not for long he's been nominated for a grammy. He should be getting more attention soon. Not to mention his fx show "Atlanta" coming up.
and hes on community
lol
The only reasons people can hate on him is cus he used to be a comedian and he's white washed.
markus hubbard So? Those aren't excuses for hating on him.
I'm headin west like I'm blowin kanye. Loool bino has the best one liners
Who’s here for some nostalgia, it’s crazy how so many people who listen to this have the same nostalgic feelings of their adolescence. What a time.
I've been listening to Childish for years and somehow completely missed this gem.
gpoop23 same, I'm ashamed of myself
I'm also dissapointed in you....smh
Rashawn Young fair enough
"But these girls I'm kissin' chase the blues away like Gargamel", can we all just take a moment to appreciate this line.
No
Explain it to me like a 5 year old
@@denzelclauded.pagaduan9560 gargamel is the sworn enemy of the smurfs. Smurfs = Blue. In the story i think all he does is chase the smurfs to catch them.
@@breazy832One of the greatest lines of all time, i heard it just now again and I screamed
this man used to say some wild shit
MegaLakeStar lmfaoo hell yeah
2024… 12 years later this still hits.
I remember listening to this song everyday on my way to 9th grade summer school.. being 25 now this song trips me out, I hope everyone who reads this is doing well, just don’t ever give up it all gets better eventually ❤
It's 2022 and this shit still hits like day one
We need one more album of him rapping
Still hoping for that chance collab
@@antoniorangel9784 i feel like it wouldve come out a long time ago if it ever would. i hope they are still on good terms.
the second half of the song is incredible. definitely makes the song for me
This is the Childish spitting that makes me feel like a child to love it. The lyricism is top shelf!
hes heading west liek he fucking blowing kanye 😂😂😂😂
Still holding my breath for the lil dicky/gambino album. But I'm already dead from waiting for detox and watch the throne 2. etc. Maybe someday
I love this song so much. Musically, his vision was ahead of his style. It's a great example of how far ahead he was for his time.
Street ahead
This is a Kanye song
@@messiah4776 and Donald's version is far better than Kanye's
@@blakestormcrow6275 @Blake Stormcrow I'm a big fan of Donald but this is not true...
@@messiah4776 Kanye is pre-school with his lyrics. Donald has a PhD in lyrical mastery
Who still jammin in 2019? 🔥🔥🔥
Try 2020
Try 3005
Yup still here 5050
We never left
Gonna be jamming till 3005 watchu mean lol
Man I’ve been a huge fan of Gambino since junior high, this guy does it all and he’s still killing it almost 10 years later
Beautiful to look through the comments and see all who have jumped on the Gambino Bandwagon in the past year. Dope to see his fanbase growing like that.
That's extremely true.
merz not leaving but honestly can't get behind most of those songs
This isnt America
damn troy, stop bein talented already
I won't stop being so talented, my name is Troy so I couldn't resist( I know it's a community reference. But I am somewhat talented. But vino is clearly better Suited For This. I use my talents to satisfy my woman.
This generations jamie foxx. Triple threat. I’m in awe of all his talent.
childish gambino logic and hopsin are at the top of my list (and chance the rapper)
Logics ass
+Chuck Norris u crazy
👍
+Michael Benavidez Drop Hopsin., you'll be happier
Owened your crazy
I love that he doesn't take himself too seriously. He is doing this because he loves doing it. Fact.
“These black girls with natural hair who keep up with their Tumblrs.” Yes!
Tami H i swear every time i see a comment about a lyric i hear the lyric when i read it
Dana Jo it literally means what it means
No
Had a friend who helped me overcome social anxiety. It became a secret language for us to recite bino lyrics randomly. This song always brings me back man. RIP!
It's so cool how he added the interlude from the og song at the end. He truly is amazing
I was listening to this in middle school thinking about a girl 😂 good days
what are you like 14?
Was she Japanese lol
Middle school?
Youre too young to be here but brownie points for having good taste in middle school
I’m 20 lol I was listening back in 2012 😂
"I'm headin' west like im fuckin' blowin' Kanye." aight this man is sick with it
“You’re her x-man like Cannonball” - still hits so hard in 2024!
It's been like 8 years and we still here.
Yessir!!!
🗣 FACTS
No matter what Gambino comes out with this will always be my favorite
This song so hard it makes me want to rob my own house smfh
+ThatNiggaSpiderman straight up
Nothing harder than a guitar melody and vocals!
+Jaime Perez after listening to this song
This song go so hard it makes me want to eat my own ass smfh
@ThatNiggaSpiderman I'm stealing this... hilarious!!!
Forgot how dope Childish is on the mike. Takes me back to a better time
L Weems who’s mike? You mean mic ?
idk is why but gambino just makes so much sense
Brandon Juarez lol I found your comment
Lmao wtf
Lit
But for real I love this song!
Same helped me through a break up
listening to this banger 10 years later
1:54 I always go ham to that part
@@viviennekomatsu tell that to lil dicky 😅
Donald can't be done rapping. He's got a new record soon, new shows in September where he's gonna debut new music.
literally happening rn and I cannot wait until its finally available to the public
Nor can I. I'm so pumped.
cant happen soon enough
I didn't like it now I'm greifing hoping for him to go back to rap.
On the contrary, I like it very much. But watch him go bac to rapping when you least expect it. I feel like, as that record was about him becoming a father, he seemed to think that rap wouldn't do his vision justice or something.
HE MURDERED THIS!!!!
This sends chills up my spine every single time. Love this one
Who’s still listening in 2050?
Nah bro im listening in 3005
I was about to say it's 3005 and we still here.
Gambino has countless under-recognized masterpieces💯

Don't forget Spider man (Miles Morales)
You're opinion man.
@@aierune8201 Your*
The Bino you all miss is the hunger I think. He hit it big, started chasing grammy's and awards instead of recognition. He got to the point where he realized he was big time, but found out it didn't make him happy. This Bino still had hope, that the recogniton and fame would give him some kinda closure, some kinda peace.
Well said, my guy. Thanks for the helpful framing.
Gambino is so hard but so soft at the same time
And that's what makes him so sexy. 😂😍
Sus
Undoubtedly one of my all time favorite songs!
"X man like cannon ball"
if you're a nerd you would get how awesome that is.
IKR??
+Joey The King dude it's so awesome that we have a nerd rapper that reeds comics and watches cartoons and shit, I can so relate, personally I love rap, but Gambino made me wanna be a rapper cause he taught me that it's okay to like nerdy things but still be an artist.
Parker Knight Saaame bruh,that's kind of why i like logic also
+Joey The King yes, I love logic.
+Michael Peaced i know... I'm not an idiot
Every time i listen to a new gambino song for the first time it becomes my favorite. this man is so talented its ridiculous. He is the best writer in the game by far. Everything he talks about is real and from the heart.
Yeah, I felt it so much when he talked about fucking a Japanese girl for 30 seconds...........such real shit.
Love how he can make a smurfs reference sound so cool
Listening after he won song of the year, proud that he got this far
As much as I love the original, I love this one just as much. The original gives you the feeling of being a hero, rising to the biggest occasion of your life. This version feels like a look back in retrospect of everything you’ve went through up until now.
Something made me want to listen to old Gambino songs. I forgot how fire this man was.... wordplay is insane!!!! 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
still my favorite, but because the internet is so raw
The end makes me wanna cry for some reason
Same bro 😔
I always finish this song with a smile on my face.
this my first day ever listening to him I'm impressed
Welcome to the great music section!! We have cookies!
+Raleigh Sloman 😂😂
+R. Sloman sadly the lil wayne fans have the milk
+Nate Robinson Wayne was good look at Tha Carter 1,2, and 3 and No Ceilings so please check before throwing shade. Yes Gambino is good but he's not Kendrick or Eminem or Biggie or Tupac or Lil Wayne (Early 2000s) he's good but he's not legendary.
+Nate Robinson its so funny to see all the people who love chance and childish but hate wayne. U do know lil wayne is their hero right lmao. Wayne is a legend to say the least
I actually think this song is a lot deeper than you see, it's about the difficulty of going from being normal to the expectations of success and fame.
miss this bino
WetRee i come back to his old work once it a while. It’s so good
Same man...my first song i ever heard by him
where's this from?
he's still the same, just has different sounds/approaches to his music.
Camp Gambino still my favourite Gambino IMO.
That Smurfs reference though. XD
As a huge Yeezy fan I have to say Gambino did this tune justice. Keep giving us dope hits!
Me and the Corona Virus are head bobbing to this jam 🔥
I fucking love his mixtapes😍
Heading bobbing?
*head bobbing
Keep your comment 6 feet away from mine lol
@@swilliegerard2718 yea the ronas got him heading bobbing deal with it lol
The nostalgia I get from this is crazy
3:31 - 3:58
The end really hits for me and takes me back to the summer of 2012 after graduating high school and beginning my first semester of college. I would lay in my room at night in solitude for the last time deep in thought as I drift to sleep felt like a goodbye to not only my friends, but my life as I knew it at the time while moving to a different city for college. A lifelong buddy of mine was going to a Childish Gambino concert the next day, so I unfortunately had to miss out, but what a time it would have been if I went to that concert.
First song ever I heard from gambino 2 years ago on someone's tumblr page, he's been my favourite ever since.
"Im heading west like im blowing kanye" took me years too understand but its honestly one of my favourite line from bino lmaooo
This is sick, how am I just hearing this for the first time?
Rappers usually get someone to sing their chorus but this guy does both. Awesome!!
He said, "I'm so cheesy, my swag has high cholesterol." LMAO
I wouldn't have ever noticed his nose if they hadn't used that photo it looks fine in all the other photos of him I've seen.
***** haha so creative
Maybe its just the lighting or the angle that makes it look weird...
Umm..so something is "wrong" with his nose because he has an African nose? Fuck you, racist.
He said his nose was ugly in the song that's why i wrote that comment, it had nothing to do with race.
Lol I was griefing you.
a million ways to shine choose one
I lovvvvve this song. The intro is fantastic, and his references are on point. whitest of white girls, but I feel so gangster everytime I listen to this.
+Destiny Alden that is honestly awesome lol
Yes queen!
hell yeah! I'm a white guy who doesn't listen to a whole lot of rap (I mostly listen to classic 60s and 70s rock), but I love pretty much every song he makes
2021 and beyond. 💯🙌🏿💎💎
Childish Gambino’s raps are just a bunch of puns, and I love it.
0:50..best part honestly this beat, his voice..everything on him is amazing
“ I’m heading west like I’m fucking blowing Kanye “ the only rapper who can say summin so ayo and I’ll fuck wit it 😂
This guy is ridiculously underrated
Man this to me is one of the best CG songs still
Haven’t heard this since I lived in sw fla about 7 heard it about 9 years ago, childish and a diff song showed up instantly remembered this, love it, thanks for the reminder, that talent still exists
Just found this song again... brings back so many memories haha
this song is so phat
Damn haven’t heard that word in years
I have been listening to him for years. My boyfriend introduced me to Gambino music but I have never head this song before. I am disappointed in myself.
I love this man!! 😍😍😍
probably my favorite Childish Gambino song
so well produced
I didn't realize he had such a weird nose until this song
right
+Seph F I can never unsee that, thanks. I can not concentrate in Community anymo.
J -Zenberg
haha you can thank Childish for bringing it up in the lyrics to this song
+Seph F I didn't realize he had such a weird nose until this comment
+Seph F what the actual fuck is that nose,holy
He was ahead of his time
One talented guy! KEEP IT COMING BINO!!
He is so gorgeous. And I love his music.
The drop always hits me when im at the gym
the reason we have to break all the lights is because this song causes fires everywhere
I want...no I NEED one more album of this Gambino snapping in the booth...guhdamn bro
That guitar, I could just listen to it on loop at a beach all day.
