Rapper and actor, Childish Gambino, has had enough of the trolling haters. In a rare sighting, he sent a tweet letting haters know that he’d appreciate it if they addressed him directly. 2022 brings goals and new attitudes so here is one from the Atlanta producer.
In the tweet, he expressed, “please @ me this year if u talk shit on me.”

Mr. Glover didn’t hold back in the replies to his tweet either. A commenter addressed his SoundCloud content being removed, seemingly because of Glover. Turns out, his record company reported its use due to copyright issues. Clearing his name, Glover let them know not to come for him.

Glover has earned his stripes in the entertainment industry, as his show, Atlanta, has been on the receiving end of endless awards. The critically acclaimed show has earned two Golden Globe Awards and two Primetime Emmy Awards. His prestigious Emmy win made history as he was the first African American to win Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series.
The American comedy-drama television series premiered on September 6, 2016, on FX. With the third season set to premiere on March 24, 2022, he is seemingly getting the crowd roaring as we approach its season.
Fans have had plenty to say since the highly sought-after show has been absent since season 2 in 2018. The show’s promise came in a statement from the President of FX, Eric Schrier. “We are thrilled to have Atlanta back with a new season on March 24th. Once again, Donald Glover, the producers and stellar cast have delivered another signature season synonymous with the excellence that makes Atlanta so great,” he said.
What’s next for Donald Glover AKA Childish Gambino?
We know that Childish Gambino had taken a backseat to music. His last album, 3.15.20, peaked at No. 13 on the Billboard 200 chart. Following the announcement of it being his last album, he subsequently revealed he had yet another album coming. “Last music project was probably my best,” he said in November 2020. “but the one coming will be my biggest by far. listen to ‘new ancient strings’ outside. There is a lot (of magic) comin. yall thought I was hot in 2018.”
Let’s not forget his 8 figure deal with Amazon Prime. The 2005 movie, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, was said to reboot with Glover and Waller-Bridge serving as executive producers. Furthermore, this will afford Glover his own Prime Video channel.
In essence, Mr. Glover has earned the respect of music and television lovers alike.
