Childish Gambino has new music in the teasers for his new Amazon Prime Video series, Swarm!
The teaser shares a snippet of a new song from Gambino called “Sticky” and is a collab between Gambino, singer Kirby and Ni’jah. The track is “original music from the new series!”
Coming to Prime Video on Friday, Swarm is a new horror series starring Dominique Fishback and co-executive produced by Donald Glover (aka Childish Gambino) and Janine Nabers, creator of HBO's Watchmen. The series also features Chloe Bailey and Damson Idris, star of Snowfall.
Fishback plays a devoted fan who becomes obsessed with a famous pop star, whose character appears to be influenced by Beyonce, as seen in the trailer. The series is set to premiere on March 10th at the SXSW festival and has been described as "a sister to Atlanta" by Nabers and "a post-truth The Piano Teacher mixed with The King of Comedy" by Glover.
Like Glover's previous show, Atlanta, Swarm is expected to have hidden messages and meaningful moments, while also providing a platform for black artists to showcase their talents. Idris, who stars in Snowfall, has worked with Glover before, and both shows have aired on the FX network.
