What ChildishGambino was trying to give the Coachella audience, he insisted, was “an experience.”
Donald Glover performed as his alter ego Childish Gambino at Coachella on Friday night. He didn't allow The Times to photograph the show.
When he’s going old-school, as in “Boogieman” and “Terrified,” he suggests classic-soul karaoke; when he’s going au courant, as in “Sober” and “3005,” he sounds like an eager acolyte. He started his set on a raised platform in the middle of the audience, with a camera in his face feeding startlingly intimate pictures to the enormous screens on either side of the stage.
