Out of the blue, there is a new Donald Glover album. The artist has surprised everyone by dropping a new 12 tracks album on his website, apparently ditching the Childish Gambino musical alter-ego.

The site provides no information about the album. It featured a drawing of a city riot with some of the people shown excited about their surroundings while others seem distressed. The picture is enigmatically divided into 4 squares and the title reads simply: “Donald Glover presents”.

The album contains 12 songs including some previously released like Feels Like Summer, Algorythm, and Warlord — songs he performed at Coachella in 2019. The album also features guest appearances by Ariana Grande, SZA, 21 Savage, and his son.

The last album Glover has released under the Gambino alter ego was back in 2016 and he has stated since that he means to get rid of Gambino after his next tour and album. Since no album has been released since then it is still unclear whether this is a Gambino album or strictly a Glover one.

Here’s the presumed list of the album’s tracklist:

  1. Intro (Warlords)
  2. Little Foot Big Foot
  3. Why Go To the Party
  4. Feels Like Summer
  5. Don’t Worry About Tomorrow (The Violence)
  6. Under the Sun
  7. We Are (Interlude)
  8. Algorythm
  9. Time (Ft. Ariana Grande)
  10. Vibrate (Ft. 21 Savage & SZA)
  11. To Be Beautiful
  12. Sweet Thing / Thank You
