Moda Center at the Rose Quarter
World-class rapper Childish Gambino, aka actor slash comedian Donald Glover, is making his way to Portland this fall. The New World Tour will be fans’ last chance to witness Gambino in the flesh; he will be retiring from the moniker after the release of his final album, which is coming later this year. The tour will kick off in Oklahoma City this August, so grab your tickets ASAP! Buy tickets to see Gambino at the Moda Center in Portland this September… Like, now.
A man of many talents, Donald Glover got his start in writing comedy when Tina Fey hired him to contribute to the NBC series 30 Rock. He went on to co-star in an ensemble cast of iconic characters in the sitcom Community. It was during this steady growth of his acting career that he began performing as a rapper. He released his first studio album, Camp, in 2011.
From Camp onward, he only continued to dominate the hip hop scene with songs like Redbone and This is America. To see both hits performed live, check out tickets for his upcoming concert in Portland. Don’t skip out; get them before they’re gone.
This upcoming tour is no doubt as bittersweet for Gambino as it is for his fans. But just because he’s soon to be retired as a rapper doesn’t mean he isn’t keeping busy. He just released a reissue of his fourth studio album, 3.15.20, called Atavista, and he has more coming soon. Since Atavista is not entirely new material, fans knew another final album had to be on the way. Sure enough, the rapper confirmed there’s one last album is on the way - and you might be able to hear it live in Portland. Get tickets now.
We don’t know much about his next album right now, but we do know it will be Gambino’s last. The funny thing is, this wasn’t much of a surprise to seasoned fans. In fact, the rapper has been claiming he would be retiring since 2015. But this time, it seems to be the truth. His final tour, The New World Tour, will be kicking off this summer, and touching down in Portland in September. You’re gonna wanna grab your tickets while you can; he’s in demand.
With his final album on the horizon, Childish Gambino’s career is dangerously close to ending. We all know the truth; this is the last album, and this tour is a goodbye. Still, it’s going to be incredibly bittersweet to see him turn to other projects. And that’s the thing - Glover never explicitly said he was done with music, just with this era of his. But when it comes to Gambino, this is your very last chance to see him perform. You don’t want to miss a chance like that, do you? This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, so don’t skip out on getting some tickets. They’re available right now, so get them while you can; they’re selling fast.
