A TV Star And Rapper, Glover Also Proves To Be An Immensely Likable Comedian
"Community" star and rapper Childish Gambino's alter ego Donald Glover returns to his adopted city of New York for his first stand-up DVD special courtesy of Comedy Central. Shot before an enthusiastic crowd at Union Square Theater, Glover has such an easy and laid-back charm that it's hard not to instantly engage with his material. Glover has branded himself a "Weirdo" with the concert's title, but he is far from it. While some of his funniest bits play out absurdly, most of his stories and jokes are quite identifiable. Many tales from his childhood are both ridiculous AND universal, and you'll find yourself nodding knowingly and laughing at the same time.
Topics include the music world, foster care, appropriating language and a fateful trip to Home Depot. This is not a performance for Glover's typical television fans, this is an adult set with all the expected language and edgy source material. It's not the raciest set I've ever seen, but I thought I'd shout out to...
Donald Glover is gonna be HUGE!
I can't believe I'm only discovering Donald Glover. I watched this special 3 times in 2 days and laughed my butt off every time. My only complaint about this video is that it's over waaay too soon. His jokes are more like personal stories you're hearing from your funniest friend. This guy is just so damn likeable. Watch this!
Hilarious
Donald Glover is hands down my favorite comedian! It's very easy to relate to his jokes or just laugh regardless because he presents them so well! Yes this is "Troy" but no this is not the same "safe" comedy so be ready lol
