Childish Gambino Signs With RCA, And He Has New Music on the Way
Childish Gambino — a.k.a. actor/singer/rapper and”Atlanta” star Donald Glover — and his agency/label Wolf + Rothstein have partnered with RCA Records for a new recording and label deal. New music from Gambino, who is nominated in multiple categories at the upcoming Grammy Awards, is expected via Wolf + Rothstein/RCA Records.
“Donald is undoubtedly one of the most talented, multi-faceted, young entertainers of this era,” said RCA Chairman/CEO Peter Edge of the signing. “We are excited to join forces with him and Wolf + Rothstein to usher in the next phase of Childish Gambino’s musical career.”
Added Glover: “It was a necessary change of pace.
Based in Temple Studios in Los Angeles, Wolf + Rothstein is the creative agency comprised of Glover, Wolf Taylor, and Fam Rothstein, all whom worked with the band that helped create the “Awaken My Love!” album, which, along with the single “Redbone,” are nominated for five Grammy Awards: Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Best Traditional R&B Performance, Best R&B Song, and Best Urban Contemporary Album.
“Awaken My Love!” and Gambino’s two prior albums were released through GlassNote Records; execs from the company spoke with Variety last year about the campaign to make “Redbone” a hit single. The song finished out 2017 at No. 20 on BuzzAngle Music’s most consumed songs chart.
Childish Gambino is set to perform at the 60th Grammy Awards on January 28.
As a label, Wolf + Rothstein also released two projects in 2016: Kari Faux’s “Lost en Los Angeles,” which had several songs featured in Issa Rae’s hit HBO series “Insecure,” and Black Party’s “Mango.” The company will be partnering with Kobalt for publishing.
“Being malleable is important to us, and that’s what this partnership allows. Also, it was about that time,” Fam Rothstein said. Julian K. Petty, Partner, Nixon Peabody LLP adds: “This partnership is a real commitment to artistry and the future of music. I’m happy I could play a small part in helping put it together.”

Dare for more. Do things differently this year in order to receive more- Moses Bliss inspires the youth at Dominate 2025
Dominate 2025, a youth empowerment program, organized by Gift Africa, with Mrs Slyvia Akwaboah as the Covernor, had great speakers and panelists who spoke on various issues that are relevant to shape and improve the youths of today.
Moses Bliss, the Guest Minister for the event, made a keynote address to all and sundry on the topic, “Dare for More”. His insightful presentation covered aspects that include, “how to dare for more, things to put in place if you want to do more and things to do differently this year in order to receive more.”
He shared stories of how he began as an upcoming Gospel artiste, but with persistency, consistency, availability, and his eagerness to learn and yearn for more, he is now recognized globally. In view of this, Moses bliss admonished all Gospel singers to always minister their own songs at events, regardless.
In order to dare for more, Moses gave out some pertinent points and facts to note. Firstly, one needs to know exactly who he or she wants to be and who he or she doesn’t want to be. There is no one more important than who you are becoming, therefore be focused on who you are becoming and what you are becoming. Focus brings resilience.
Moses further moved on to talk about the things to put in place if one wants to do more. He elaborates, “have an unquenchable desire for success, be really good or exceptional in the field you want to become, have a change in your daily routine, increase in wisdom, and then give yourself to training.
Finally, he made emphasis on some things to do differently this year in order to receive more. He states, “align with God, speak word into your future (align your steps), stay under the cloud of God, make a mark in all areas and lastly, spend time to read and invest in the word of God”.
A prayer was shared by Moses Bliss to climax his informative presentation.
