Childish Gambino Does Stand-Up (Donald Glover Weirdo)

This is not exactly a movie, but I watched it last night and loved it so I will share some insights....

Who knew that Donald Glover (The Martian, Creed​) was amazing at stand-up before Weirdo came out?  I certainly didn't!  He can rap, he can act, and apparently he can make me laugh.  Glover's comedy is well-written and clever, adding to his already extensive career in entertainment.  This comedy might not suit everyone, but you have to admit that it is a work of art no matter how offended you are by it at the end!  Glover reminds us that even in a world full of racist ideologies, we can get a laugh from our observations.  Certain jokes teeter on the edge of racism, but the delivery makes it alright.  Glover seems like such a natural on the stage, prancing around in full control of the audience's attention.  For those of you who are familiar with Glover as Troy Barnes in Community, this is a different and yet familiar character.  His stand-up includes the wit of Troy, but adds the raunchiness of Childish Gambino.  Basically if you are a fan of Troy or Gambino, you will find loyal connections from the characters in his stand-up performance.  I'm still shocked that he said those jokes so comfortably in front of his mom, but hopefully she saw it as another reason to be proud of her son!

​Score: 9.5/10
