After his surprise performance with Tyler, the Creator at Coachella, Donald Glover, aka Childish Gambino, took to Twitter/X on Sunday (April 14) to announce that he would be starting his new album rollout that evening.
“GILGA Radio tonight @ 11 pm PST. Live streamed on Instagram @donaladglover,” he wrote on X.
After the release of his hit record Awaken, My Love in 2017, Glover told HuffPost that he would retire his rap moniker after his last album, which ended up being 3.15.20. But Glover didn’t follow through with that statement. In a 2020 interview for GQ with Michaela Coel, he addressed why he couldn’t let go of his alter ego just yet: “I still don’t feel like I’m done with that [music] project.”
Glover has not yet released a date for Atavista.
