Looking Back at Childish Gambino’s “Redbone” | Song Stories

Details

Description

In 2016, Childish Gambino released his ‘70s funk-inspired single, “Redbone.” Co-produced by Gambino and his frequent collaborator Ludwig Göransson, the Grammy-winning track is taken from 'Awaken, My Love!' and seems to address issues he’s having in a relationship. Notably, the song was featured in Jordan Peele’s 2017 Oscar-winning film, Get Out, giving the lyrics new meaning about the American black experience and not being able to trust the country’s principles at face value.
