Fans of NBC’s Community won’t be surprised to learn that Donald Glover (who plays Troy) can spit rhymes, but if they’re unfamiliar with his real-life rap alter ego Childish Gambino, they might be taken aback by his intense first music video, “Freaks And Geeks”, directed by Dan Eckman (the same director of Glover’s indie film, Mystery Team). The stand up comic’s delivery and rhymes (semi-NSFW) are captivating enough to forget that the vid is a simple, single shot. Watch below!

Pretty impressive! A little Weezy, a little Drake, and a little something we haven’t seen before.

Donald’s hitting the road in April, showing off both his skills as a rapper and a comedian – check out his IAMDONALD tour poster for dates:
