All of your points are very reasonable, you defend your positions with relevant examples, and none of your criticisms are about the artist themself, just their work. The power of a reviewer lies in the consistency of their voice, so thank you for being consistently wrong.

@@Alexander-yz6ql You dont like any of the songs on Bando? I found Dadvocate, In The Night and No Excuses to be very good. Half the songs are good imo.
This take is wild… listening to this album had me so engaged. It was so unpredictable, every song that came up was like wtf is going to be next and I was here for it. Real love was fire, and if you didn’t get that it was tongue in cheek that’s on you.

Yep, going into the video I already have many songs of it on my playlist and i've been on the album for a few weeks now. His words aren't final as per usual so it's not gonna stop me from enjoying it.
@@Iwatoda_Dorm yeah in 2024 it’s tough for me to even find an album that comes off as an actual album. Bando is special in that sense for me, a moment in this genre.
Esteemed Mr. Fantano, Upon thy esteemed review of the latest opus, *Bando Stone and the New World* by the illustrious Childish Gambino, I am compelled to pen an epistle that doth extol the manifold virtues of this magnum opus, which, in mine humble estimation, doth merit naught but the highest accolades-a perfect rating of ten. Firstly, prithee consider the sonic architecture of this album, which doth transcend mere auditory pleasure and ascendeth into the realm of the sublime. Gambino hath crafted a tapestry of sound that seamlessly weaveth together diverse genres, from the soulful strains of R&B to the pulsating rhythms of modern hip-hop. Each track is a meticulous composition, a symphony of intricate beats and harmonious melodies that doth transport the listener to an otherworldly dimension. Secondly, the lyrical prowess exhibited herein is of such a calibre that it doth rival the poetic works of the most revered bards of yore. Gambino's verses are replete with profound introspections, societal commentary, and an exploration of the human condition that is both poignant and erudite. His ability to intertwine personal narrative with universal themes is a testament to his unparalleled artistry and intellectual acuity. Moreover, the thematic cohesion of *Bando Stone and the New World* is nothing short of extraordinary. The album doth present a compelling narrative arc, a veritable odyssey through the vicissitudes of existence in the modern world. Each song doth serve as a chapter in this grand epic, with motifs and leitmotifs that recur and evolve, imbuing the work with a sense of unity and purpose that is rare in contemporary music. Furthermore, the production quality is of the highest order, a paragon of sonic engineering. The clarity and depth of sound, the precision of mixing, and the innovative use of technology all coalesce to create an auditory experience that is immersive and awe-inspiring. The meticulous attention to detail is evident in every note, every pause, and every crescendo, rendering the album a masterpiece of modern production. In summation, *Bando Stone and the New World* by Childish Gambino is an exemplar of musical genius, a tour de force that doth elevate the art form to new heights. It is an album that demandeth not only to be heard but to be studied, pondered, and cherished. In light of these considerations, I submit that it deserveth a rating of ten, a perfect score that is but a modest recognition of its boundless merits. Yours in musical reverence, Sikefis Farotos
@odehaladii just listened, its surprisingly good for that underrated of an artist. My only suggestion is the audio quality of the raps (the actual raps were sick). If u could maybe fix that I would listen to you in my free-time!
I know we like to joke and shit but does anyone feel like fantano is genuinely losing his touch? I know he's been divisive for years but now not even his explanations or comparisons really make sense anymore he's just spewing words without a full thought or meaning behind them, you can REALLY tell here
So I didn’t watch the stream or really care for this album either but I will agree that he seems off lately. I’m still trying to figure out why he didn’t review normandi’s album
Loving Glover's glare the whole time... I can't agree with any of this review. It's interesting how people are moved differently by music. I love every track.
@@RandomPerson-nx3rm cause his rating system varies for every artist and their respective genre/goals for the album. Bando Stone is not a dirty south album, therefore the scores are not really comparable. But at the end of the day who gaf it’s his opinion
u forgot about the line on yoshinoya where he dissed u! “white boy throwin dirt on my name for the think piece” he’s talking bout u lmao. this album is a 10/10. the hate for donald is crazy.
Definitely a mixed bag. The best songs are some of his best ever, but the worst ones just had me thinking “no way he made this and thought it was good”
I think the fact each song takes on a different genre or artist influence is sort of the point tho… like each one is a different sonic inspiration on “Gambino” as the character. The Kanye one is obvious, then there’s an indie rock track, a song that sounds like it was for cardi b, a prodigy sample, Etc. I think it’s a neat concept but doesn’t make a fully cohesive album (especially with the over usage of samples from the movie that hasn’t even come out yet). Kind of wanted more out of a final Gambino album honestly and was underwhelmed
I think that this Is exactly what Donald wanted. Maybe I'm overthinking, but this album is not the "triumph goodbye", because *nobody gives a fuck*. Like he was slowly doing this with Atlanta. And I think that both of those worked. Have a nice day.
@@nachosniewolnosci3147 fully agree, especially with the usage of the samples from the movie being soooo frequent maybe it’s a critique on the prevision of art when capital take priority over creativity. But could be overthinking
@sillyboysue2782 fun fact, I don't really care that much. fun fact, it's not that deep, and fun fact, he's been hating on Childish his whole career so I wouldn't be surprised if the lyric actually is referring to him.
@@itsrayiguessyou know there is comment history feature in TH-cam so everyone sees that you are Gambino's biggest d-rider and comment about "unfair rankings" on every opportunity you get?
It’s incredible, I love how the beat makes me feel like I’m in the jungle & it just evolves from there to like a futuristic Jungle. Very artistic & I love the passion
I think you can make the argument that this album and “character” is a conglomerate of all of the childish gambino personalities. The genre and style of those characters from the five albums give him the ability to produce music that a single childish gambino character otherwise wouldn’t. While every track might not be the best, gambino experiments outside of his comfort zone so to speak. I think there are a lot of bangers on this album. I think fantano makes some good points overall.
I now see why the Lithonia music video exists. It’s so that we can relate to and see ourselves eyes exploding at this review. He’s a genius!, he set up the feeling for us!
Wild that y'all were expecting Fantano to give Gambino his flowers. Imo as a biased fan it's a great album, at least an 8. That being said, I would've been stunned to see him give anything higher than a 6. He has been lukewarm since day 1, at least he's consistent about it...
Gotta agree, I was never a die hard fan but enjoyed a lot of his music. This album is kinda weird, has good ideas, but his singing/rapping just didn’t hit super hard
I get your reasoning for reviewing it so low, although I wish you talked more on *_Dadvocate_* , as I think it’s easily one of the better tracks on the album. It’s kinda similar to “Awaken My Love!” but with more stripped back production and more Singer-Songwriter aesthetics, that’s really nice on the ears, with it’s simple guitar plucks, catchy chorus, and serene vocals.
I think the last time I chimed in was the Crawler review, so it's been a minute, but damn this is the most off the mark I feel like Anthony has been in a while. After sitting with this record for about a week I can confidently say it's one of the strongest of the year. I do agree that the record is a bit of a mixed sonic experience, but exponentially more often than not it's all hitting an extremely high batting average compared to other popular music right now. I think the fact that the highs are so high can trick you into disliking certain songs more - sort of like a music version of that average looking person standing next to two hotter people stereotype. The album sounds way more like a compilation than a cohesive sonic experience, which hurts it for me more than it helps it for me, but even then I can't ignore that the songs themselves are, much more often than not, doing what they're trying to do very, very well. It's a minimum 7 for me at my most absolutely critical.
I love how Donald is staring at him in disgust for the entire review
I'm dying bro xdd
cause he know it gon be a mid review. frm melon relon

🤣🤣🤣
After seeing what his recording space looks like in the Meat Canyon video I don't blame him.
I was young and foolish to think that Childish Gambino would actually get a positive review.
I think that Fantano knows that Childish Gambino doesn't give a fuck (Lithonia).
5 is almost positive
If it's not some random no name indie artist or Kendrick you'll never get a great review.
Don't forget Death Grips and BROCKHAMPTON
They could make a 5 minute track of farts and Fantano would cum himself over how “innovative” it is
@@HeyLook287Then ig Lana Del Rey didn’t get a 9 last year

fandango looks at gambino and sees a worse Tyler the creator, it feels like
This album lowkey needs an instrumental version ngl. Sometimes when listening to it I tune out the words and just listen to the vibes
was not expecting you to put this below atavista wtf
I'm sorry, a LIGHT FIVE???
Crazy gesture you are doing in the thumbnail mr fantano
Bro dont like music
how do you always have the worst opinion on music
IM SORRY WHAT??? THIS IS AN INSANE TAKE?
I really enjoyed this album, it does feel incomplete without the movie but I do like all the songs even if they feel separate and not a whole work
Growing up i love his music but for what ever reason i have trouble listening to this album. In fact, i have trouble revisiting most of his stuff.
Gotta agree, I was never a die hard fan but enjoyed a lot of his music. This album is kinda weird, has good ideas, but his singing/rapping just didn’t hit super hard
Yeah I like some of his songs but overall he is a better producer and singer rather than rapper.
grippy.
You would give it a 10 if it was called to pimp a bando stone
Cornyyyyyy
Haha
He's just angry he got jump scared by the lithonia video…
Light five 🤨🤨🤨
As some guy have pointed out, this is the Yeezus of Childish Gambino, and you know how much Melon likes Yeezus
this man just hates Childish Gambino fr give the man his flowers bruh
If you gave Ice Spice a 4, this deserves a 40
Dadvocate and A Place Where Love Goes were incredible tracks mane
Yes! What a way to finish the album off
Davocate and A Place Where Love Goes are too good to not even get a mention cmon now
I get your reasoning for reviewing it so low, although I wish you talked more on *_Dadvocate_* , as I think it’s easily one of the better tracks on the album.
It’s kinda similar to “Awaken My Love!” but with more stripped back production and more Singer-Songwriter aesthetics, that’s really nice on the ears, with it’s simple guitar plucks, catchy chorus, and serene vocals.
Dadvocate such a great song lol
If the album were called “To Pimp a New World” you would’ve given it a 10
I’ll turn the 5 into an 8 for you like a kid trying to trick his parents on a report card ❤
Usually I don’t agree with you, but I’m happy to see I’m not the only person who thought this album was dogshit
Cool
@@darkeum9741 hold my balls
This is an okay rating tho not a dogshit one
Bro can’t have fun to save his life
I want Donald to Awaken his funk again
I think the last time I chimed in was the Crawler review, so it's been a minute, but damn this is the most off the mark I feel like Anthony has been in a while.
After sitting with this record for about a week I can confidently say it's one of the strongest of the year. I do agree that the record is a bit of a mixed sonic experience, but exponentially more often than not it's all hitting an extremely high batting average compared to other popular music right now. I think the fact that the highs are so high can trick you into disliking certain songs more - sort of like a music version of that average looking person standing next to two hotter people stereotype. The album sounds way more like a compilation than a cohesive sonic experience, which hurts it for me more than it helps it for me, but even then I can't ignore that the songs themselves are, much more often than not, doing what they're trying to do very, very well. It's a minimum 7 for me at my most absolutely critical.
fantano listening to the album
fantano reviewing the album
its a strong 8 dont listen to melon man
Damn, same score as Because the Internet, felt it in my bones this score was coming once I heard the album.
