Donald Glover has decided to retire his "Childish Gambino" stage name, feeling it no longer fulfills him. "It really was just like, 'Oh, it's done,'" Glover, 40, told The New York Times. Initially drawn to music to find a like-minded Black community, Glover often felt isolated. Recalling an N.E.R.D. concert where he and his girlfriend were the only Black attendees, he questioned, "Am I an alien?"
Glover now prioritizes genuine connections over industry coolness, especially with his sons, Legend, 8, Drake, 6, and Donald Jr., 4. He emphasized the importance of grace and authentic joy. "When I put my son on my shoulders, I feel deep joy. That's real. No one on their deathbed is going to look back and say, 'Thank God I avoided being cringe.'"
