Donald GloverWhen you think of the former high school football star, you think 6-foot-2, white, meathead as the model for that kind of character.

Donald GloverI hope a kid listens to my stuff, I hope there's a change made and at least somebody walks away with: "I'm doing this because I like it." People are going to hate it and that's okay, but I have to do it because my happiness is important too, it's worth it.
Donald GloverI hope in general that my music allows somebody to follow what they really like doing.
