With the recent and sad news that the next Gambino album will be Donald Glover's last, I brought in fellow Stanbino/Glover Lover Paris O'Kelly for 2 hours of nothing but Donald Glover awe and admiration around his genius and achievements. Ultimately it led to a bigger discussion about when to move on creatively to other things. We talk favorite songs, videos, Community and Derrick Comedy moments, and even exchange experiences at Gambino shows and even meeting Donald himself! If you're a Donald Glover fanatic like we are, this will be one to enjoy for sure. Follow us on Instagram and Soundcloud IG: @thedlxversion www.soundcloud.com/thedeluxeversion

Episode 13 of the "The Deluxe Version" podcast! Kendra Croft comes through as we talk about her Texas upbringing, Houston hip-hop influences on her creatively, and producing fast-paced content while still showing progress and impact. She shares a J. Cole story while I share a Frank Ocean story and we discuss the legend of Lil Bow Wow while talking about the impactful experiences created with concerts. It's a long episode but definitely a fun one.
