I'm trying to imagine someone in entertainment who is as talented and multifaceted as Donald right now and no one comes to mind. He's a great writer and performer of comedy. Pretty good actor (I'm definitely interested in seeing him pull off Lando). His music has been hit or miss but his last album was a revelation. Atlanta is very smart and very funny. I just hope he doesn't burn himself out.
My wife and I are watching the TV show <i>Community</i> together, and Donald Glover is great in it. Fantastic timing. It's not a <i>challenging</i> role he's playing, but he's so charming and fun. (Plus, the show-runner on Community was Dan Harmon, co-creator of Rick & Morty, so the humor has that dark, meta, highly creative edge to it.)
Weird. I never read these kinds of articles. I always assumed they were just promotional material for whatever the subject has lined up. I came away liking Donald Glover less. His outlook on the world is pretty negative for someone who has been as successful as he has.
