Childish Gambino Breaks The Kanye-Lite Mold at Boston Calling

Childish Gambino is in the post-Kanye goldilocks zone – a rapper who brings a total package party but doesn’t go nuts on hype and production. Without a hype man, the guy we used to call Troy took to the stage at Boston Calling on Saturday and crushed everything from “Heartbeat” to “Backpackers” and back again to close out a day full of memorable festival performances.
