Childish Gambino @ The Forum [Tickets]
Childish Gambino‘s politically-charged, yet catchy single, “This Is America” is up for Record of the Year at the 2019 Grammys. Its much-discussed music video, which also became non-stop internet meme, is nominated for Best Music Video at the awards show as well, and the song itself has a nod in the Best Rap/Sung Performance category. There’s no better time than now to catch Mr. Gambino live and he’ll of course be joined by Vince Staples.

Grammy Award-winning guitarist Thundercat is a serious force to be reckoned with.
