Hollywood actor Donald Glover‘s transformation into rap-slinger Childish Gambino is quietly coming together. New reports claim the actor/rapper’s first studio project since 2013’s Because the Internet is on deck.

Viral speculation has developed due to hints of a new project called Awaken, My Love! arriving in the coming weeks.

Childish Gambino fans have been waiting for new music forever now but he seems more focused on his hit TV show Atlanta at the moment. The drought may still be over as the actor/rapper is reportedly releasing a new album titled Awaken, My Love! on December 2nd. A user on Reddit discovered the new album listing on All Music which also mentioned the release date. Upon further investigation, we found out that the album is also available for pre-order on Amazon UK with Glassnote as the label, as we would expect. (Hip Hop N More)

Gambino previously blessed fans in 2014 with some new tunes.

Gambino has not released a project since dropping STN MTN and Kauai on consecutive days in October of 2014. He performed new music at a show dubbed Pharos at Joshua Tree in early September, many taking that to be the title of any upcoming release. Speaking with Jimmy Fallon beforehand, Glover confirmed he would be performing new music, saying, “I have all these songs and I want people to feel like it felt to be in them.” (XXL Mag)

Last month, buzz developed about Glover landing a role in an upcoming Star Wars film.

Lucasfilm announced today that Donald Glover, an acclaimed actor, award-winning writer, and Grammy-nominated artist, will be playing the part of Lando Calrissian in the still-untitled Han Solo Star Wars film, helmed by directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. Glover will join Alden Ehrenreich — previously cast as Han Solo — in bringing two iconic Star Wars characters back to the big screen, but at a time in their lives previously unexplored. (Star Wars)

The official Star Wars Twitter page had also confirmed Donald’s major role.
