As expected, the weekend brought part deux of Childish Gambino's STN MTN/kauai mixtape/EP to your eager ears. Where the ATL-inspired initial offering found Bino living out a childhood dream of having his own Gangsta Grillz tape (trap-tastic reworks and all) kauai is an exploration of the left field that we were waiting for from one-half of "The Worst Guys." Beachside vibes run rampant on the b-side (if you can even call it that) with a love-jones soaked narrative voiced by Jaden Smith AKA The Boy and polished '90s r&b-tinged productions "The Pallisades" and "Sober."

And in true fashion, the comedian FKA Donald Glover added an extra level to this double-edged drop, including a hidden reimagined version of his Because The Internet hit "3005" that can only be pieced together through a series of audible Easter eggs that can be found on becausetheinter.net. The reworked cut finds a chipmunk-voiced refrain replacing that of the original over some some cooled-out synths, that provides a proper sonic accompaniment to your mid-Pacific island reverie. If you missed STN MTN jump back to last week and put your ears to that, but if you're looking for the meat of this drop, hit the player below to give Childish Gambino's kauai and the hidden remix of "3005" a peek.
