In the words of Questlove, Childish Gambino‘s “Awaken, My Love!” was quite the “sucker punch” when it dropped earlier this month. For his first TV performance of the campaign, it was only right that he brought “Redbone” to the home of The Roots, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Glover brought his own band, though, along with the most soulful of choir singers.
If you wondering whether that’s his natural voice on the album version, a shirtless Gambino proved it actually is last night.
