Always a good day when we get a new track from mysterious collective Cocaine 80s. The group, consisting of No I.D., James Fauntleroy, Common and Makeba Riddick, has been consistently dropping these tracks out of nowhere.

Childish Gambino went off on Twitter today and ended the rant with a link to his blog. If you visit the blog you’ll be greeted by a lengthy post by Big Ghost and download link for “We Ain’t Them,” and I suggest you download it either there or below. I’ve been critical of CG ever since Camp, but I have to say that this is better than most (if not all) of the stuff he’s put out over the past year. No word yet on whether or not this will be on his upcoming mixtape, but be sure to keep your eyes open for more new material in the near future.
