Point your mouse to the ‘read more’ link and hit the jump for all the details on getting them!
Collecting fame through his role on Community, Glover expanded his artistic versatility to the world of Hip-hop in 2008 with the forever entertaining crunk jams of Childish Gambino. With lyrics like “The beat is witches brew, but beware this shit is potent. e. e. cummin’ on her face, now that’s poetry in motion,” his use of extended metaphors and use of obscure and intellectual references that teeter between brilliant and stupidly silly are already gaining him a following of hip-hop aficiandos and casuals alike.
It’s no surprise that Glover is gonna be coming through the hub of the Mid-South, getting his start on Derrick Comedy, he’s got ties to the bluff city through fellow member and native Memphian Dominic Dierkes. Gambino coming through and giving love to Beale Street is something you DO NOT want to miss.
So! Want to win some tickets? Give us a ridiculous Gambino-Esque metaphor in a rhyme in the comments below. Most flowin’ prose from a pro who’s flowin’ gets the goose!
We’ll choose our winner at noon on Monday, 10/3!
