2012 was a great year for collaborations, and an even better year for surprises. The rising stars of rap, pop, and indie all worked together as we might have expected, but some of the best pairings took place in the form of odd couples. We saw some things we never would have expected, and the year was better off for it. Here are some of our favorite unholy unions of the year. no lie i just finished something with @ psy_oppa and @ 2chainz the mayan calendar predicted this — dıpןo (@diplo) December 4, 2012 [...]
Skywlkr is an absolute beast. Actually, no, make that "an absolute bruiser," as he runs with his fellow Detroit-repping cohorts as part of Danny Brown 's Bruiser Brigade . And in the past few months, Skywlkr has crafted some speaker-crushing bangers for Danny and Childish Gambino . These include the Britney Spears-sampling "Toxic", the earthquake-status "Wit It", and the soulful "They Don't Like Me". Stream and/or download all three instrumentals below.

Back in June, Danny Brown , Childish Gambino , and ScHoolboy Q performed at Prospect Park in Brooklyn, and Deal With No Deal captured footage of a pretty awesome moment from the show. The three rappers delivered a solid, near-four-minute freestyle that saw each of them putting their skills to the test. Watch the replay above. (via 2dopeboyz ).
Click here to view the embedded video. A month or so ago, TDE's own Puffy touched down in New York city to grace the Prospect Park stage with both Danny Brown and Childish Gambino . Fans got one hell of a show that night, and the homies over at DealWithNoDeal was able to capture everything from behind the scenes to Q, Danny, and Gambino free-styling live. Above watch clips of Q's performance and after the jump view the three [...]
Some find it laughable that comedian Donald Glover would forge a rap career as Childish Gambino , but last fall’s CoS Top Star-earning Camp zipped the lips of many a heckler. This year, Gambino returned on the Fourth of July with a new mixtape, Royalty , to silence the last of the snickering. The resulting 18 tracks are light on the punch lines, heavy on the swag, and an overall mighty declaration of newfound skill and confidence despite a few missteps. "We Ain't Them" is Gambino at his most [...]

Childish Gambino - Royalty Self-Released: 2012 Childish Gambino has been criticized by the rap blog world for a lot of things. For many he’s a Twitter punch line, an example of a rapper who has literally zero redeeming qualities. His voice is seen as contrived, overly cocky, and derivative, his production choices unimaginative and commercially oriented, and his voice weak, whiny, and abrasive. Most importantly, he is an outsider, building a career with the tremendous head start of separate entertainment success. His fans are not seen as true rap fans, rising from a suburban demographic [...]
Now Jonah Bromwich will never be asked to write for Community. I think Donald Glover is a really talented guy. Unfortunately, I don’t think he’s a very good rapper and his constant gripes about haters can get really grating. By complaining about those detractors, he puts those who haven’t warmed to him yet in an awkward position, making us feel guilty for not liking him more, when he should be putting in work to get better. Even putting aside Glover’s lack of technical skill, the truth is that Childish Gambino has not [...]
If there's any time during the year musical connections are made, it's during Summer. With an abundance of music releases highlighting both the highs and lows of life, a song that you fell in love with during the Summer can resonate with you forever. By creating this playlist, not only did I want to expose you to recent music releases, [...]
1. "New God Flow" - Kanye West & Pusha T. Kanye performed his then-unheard verse live at the BET Awards, and the full song dropped the next day. This song is absolute damage, with some of the best production we've heard this year. It was produced by unknown producers Tapez & Boogz, but they absolutely kill it with this beat. Pusha T is in contention, if not in the lead, for the artist of the year, and he continues his tear with two sick verses here. Kanye ends it with a verse of his own. Kanye West & [...]
What is it with decent mix tapes? Why do they seem to travel in packs? Following on from the fine efforts from Yelawolf and Joey Bada$$ ' that I posted earlier this week, junvenile mobster and all-round talented geezer Childish Gambino is next in waiting for the throne of mix tape fame. Royalty , Childisheseses' latest opus, is a fitting title. It boasts a rather regal line up of guests after all (Ghostface, RZA, Bun B, Danny Brown, Beck - yes, that Beck, Tina Fey - yes, that [...]

Childish Gambino's free mixtape Royalty is now up for grabs but maybe we should be paying for the project. The A-list features - including Ghostface Killah, RZA, Bun B, Danny [...]
