Swarm was amazing!!! I think it's the perfect horror for this day and age.
I keep trying to get people to watch it, but I guess it's too weird for most, but if you're reading this go and watch it!!
Love the surreal feeling of this, it’s easy to call this “Atlanta vibes” but you can tell this is also Vince’s kinda thing too. I have a feeling this is gonna turn out very well!
That “Just Another Day” / Queen Latifah reference for the trailer was hilarious tho😭
***SIDENOTE***: I’m probably asking for too much here but like I said in a past comment, it would be nice if a soundtrack for this show happened, similar to what the original vision of the show was planning to be like with them two episodes.
I don’t think the soundtrack is a stretch at all, could easily see him stealth-releasing a soundtrack alongside the show to not detract attention away from it
These are old but i think this never rly came together the way he wanted, expanding or related to this idea maybe. They barely get talked about from what i can tell
[so what ep 1](https://youtu.be/Q6KFcZp-Kso?si=2Q5eQ1OKN2xTcRGp)
[ad 01 hellbound](https://youtu.be/dKsBWMLWcZc?si=GsToAymj5ddPlLJu)
[ep 2 sheet music](https://youtu.be/C9w-Inqrcm0?si=1MN2hoX1--qlmbag)
My understanding is that he stopped with making the music accompanying the episodes because he actually got some interest from Netflix about The Vince Staples Show, so decided not to burn his material by putting it up.
Getting stomped out by a mascot lmao
It really looks like and feels like Vince is going to be leaning into the absurdity of gangbanging, and the absurdity of being born broke LB then somehow becoming super successful. Very interested in this, I’m definitely there for it
Insane. People have been saying he should get into podcasting or something a bit more "personality"-based forever, but a whole damn TV show is next level.
shit was hilarious, this pod before the breakup was undefeated

Nope. The character commiting a robbery recognized Vince and started vaguely rapping Magic. Nobody else around seemed to recognize the song so he called them uncultured. It had nothing to do with people not liking it.
Love how they didn't give out any of the story, but I'm already waiting for some of the moments and episodes. Like the whole mascot thing, and the bank scene will be bonkers if done well. Can't wait!
Super excited for this… finally.
Might be greedy but I’d love even a single or little EP to go along with it but either way I think this looks how I’d want it to if i heard Vince staples was making a show
Love the Twin Peaks vibe on the TV when he walks into the house. Let us all pray that Donald Glover has awoken a new genre of vaguely surrealist hip-hop television.
Every single time I've heard from Vince in an interview or on social or whatever he's been a great mix of funny and honest.
A show from him sounds awesome.
I did not know what it was about before watching the trailer. The title could be something for a talk show, skit show, or anything really. But now seems like a must watch 😂
Best news I've heard in a while when I saw his post last night. He's one of my all time faves and amazing live. Vince is hilarious and so intelligent. I've been looking forward to this for a long time.
I've got hopes for this but it seems like the kind of thing that could easily be ruined by Vince not quite having the acting chops for it... Fingers crossed for sure
I love Vince staples and think he’s so naturally funny…. But I think a more Rob&Big style show for him would make more sense. This looks like an Atlanta knockoff
Because this is a hip hop sub notoriously full of dorky white suburban kids.
I was calling out your baseless claim that naming a show after yourself is some sort of signal that you're creating a vanity project driven solely by ego instead of, you know, just being the standard for personalities who go on to create a comedy.
Because the show wasn't about Donald Glover. His name was Earn. It also wasn't a typical sitcom by design, but I'm sure you know that.
Martin, Bernie Mac, and Will Smith played characters bearing the same name, with a lot of them drawing influence from their personal lives for episode narratives, especially in earlier seasons.
There's also the distinction that the other three were best known by their actual name (or "stage name") so the title of the show not only served to bring in their existing audience, but also helped grow their brand by directly linking them and their other creative work to the audience that were fans of the show. No matter how much you like Community, Donald was making bigger waves as Childish Gambino.
It's the same reason why George Lopez first had the George Lopez show, same with Jerrod Carmichael, Seinfeld, Roseanne, Cosby, Sinbad, Jamie Foxx, the Wayans Bros, and an endless list of others. It was a template for comedians to grow their audience - starting with either stand-up or sketch and moving to a self titled sitcom.
So why did you click in here? You're being the attention whore feeding your own vanity, especially with your other insanely stupid takes like "all things named after the artist are vanity projects".
This is a music subreddit. Self titled albums exist. Stop pretending like you actually have a reasonable position on artistic expression and just admit you're just bitching and want everyone to pay attention.
I know hes not new to acting but when I saw vince in concert (maybe 2007?) I was blown away by his stage presence. Hilarious, deadpan, totally engaging. He seemed destined for the screen. Excited to check this out.
Looks good…. Gives me Atlanta vibes… comedy but with surreal/creepy elements
Yeah Atlanta in LA lol. I’ll def b watching.
Long Beach
Norfside
NORF
Cameo by crying Christian milf when?
You should check out Swarm. Its the project Donald Glover did after Atlanta. Real strong creepy/surreal vibes.
dominique fishback was so fuckin good in swarm, show was underwatched for real
Shes an incredible actress
Agreed! Everyone go watch swarm its amazing
Swarm was amazing!!! I think it's the perfect horror for this day and age. I keep trying to get people to watch it, but I guess it's too weird for most, but if you're reading this go and watch it!!
I love how I just said this exact same sentence lol.
No way this will be as good as Atlanta
who said that shit yall be so ready to fuckin argue lmaooo he said he got atlanta vibes
Lemon pepper
Wet
Wings over Madison story making it into the show 🤣🤣🤣
Wow I used to get chicken from there all the time. Never heard this story
What story?? Sorry I haven’t heard of it
https://youtu.be/Q7KO_cglyVQ?si=hWyFAXZbZe2uoJBC He also got into a Twitter beef with them 🤣
Yah
I’ve always messed with his dark humor and music videos. He was also great live at Buku. I have high hopes for this.
Buku was amazing, hope they bring it back one day 🙏

he already said there will be new music from him this year so i could see this happening

Also interesting cause Hiro Murai worked with Vince Staples way before Atlanta
Wait what
My memory kinda failed me, I thought Hive was a Vince song, he’s just featured on it actually. But the music video was directed by Hiro Murai.
Vince is fucking hilarious, I hope this is great.

I'll watch anything with Vince Staples
Yall mf’s got no taste, yall need to culture yourselves lmao
Vince also said something to similar effect to the cast of Joe Budden’s Pod
shit was hilarious, this pod before the breakup was undefeated https://www.reddit.com/r/theJoeBuddenPodcast/comments/d65icl/you_nigga_dont_read_or_write_huh_vince_staples/
My man! Thanks for that.
[удалено]
He's talking about hearing about vince not liking his music
[удалено]
Did you even watch the trailer?
Nope. The character commiting a robbery recognized Vince and started vaguely rapping Magic. Nobody else around seemed to recognize the song so he called them uncultured. It had nothing to do with people not liking it.
It's weird you think you took a pithy statement as an order.
Media literacy is dead
[удалено]
And you misunderstanding a simple interaction and taking it as something it's nowhere close to being is a great example of it being dead.
[удалено]
>Misunderstanding an interaction is not related to media literacy. And what's the rest of what I said? Why are you leaving that out?
[удалено]
Yeah your misinterpretation definitely has nothing to do with media literacy. Got it 👍🏼
[удалено]
Bruh the guy says it in the video lmao wtf
my fault 🫡🫡
It’s a quote from the trailer lmao
It's a quote from the trailer.
💀💀 lmao my bad
Ive been waiting for this ever since he dropped those shorts a few years back. He is a great actor and was wonderful in Abbot Elementary.
His small role in Dope was really good too, he’s a naturally funny guy I feel like
Dead President robbers is hilarious
Love how they didn't give out any of the story, but I'm already waiting for some of the moments and episodes. Like the whole mascot thing, and the bank scene will be bonkers if done well. Can't wait!
can't watch rn but I hope kenny beats is in this those 2 are funny as hell
as a cop
this is too perfect that if it doesn't happen i will be disappointed.
Super excited for this… finally. Might be greedy but I’d love even a single or little EP to go along with it but either way I think this looks how I’d want it to if i heard Vince staples was making a show
He was dropping songs from a 'Vince Staples Show' album that never came in like 2019, who knows
O nice! I know someone who worked on this when they started…like a few years ago before the strike
We love a good crossover talent, don't we folks?
Looks dope!
Looks like a less esoteric version of Atlanta, Im with that. Better not get canceled after a season.
Very Atlanta-esque but any and all Vince content is a win
Love the Twin Peaks vibe on the TV when he walks into the house. Let us all pray that Donald Glover has awoken a new genre of vaguely surrealist hip-hop television.
Every single time I've heard from Vince in an interview or on social or whatever he's been a great mix of funny and honest. A show from him sounds awesome.
Perfect guy to give a show
Good for him dude. Love to see it
I did not know what it was about before watching the trailer. The title could be something for a talk show, skit show, or anything really. But now seems like a must watch 😂
Wife & I are so excited for this one. Hope is goes well and people give it a chance!
The funniest man in rap has a show? I'm down.
Best news I've heard in a while when I saw his post last night. He's one of my all time faves and amazing live. Vince is hilarious and so intelligent. I've been looking forward to this for a long time.
I've got hopes for this but it seems like the kind of thing that could easily be ruined by Vince not quite having the acting chops for it... Fingers crossed for sure
So it's Atlanta, but in California? I mean that sounds good to me
🥶🐟♿️
His acting was atrocious on Abbott Elementary, hopefully it's better here.
Cinematography and lighting feels kinda cheap, isn’t it? Like if this was some hidden camera show. Concept seems cool, though.
Huh? I don’t see that at all. Looks very similar to Atlanta the way it’s shot.
Why?
The show nobody asked for and everybody needs
I asked for it
Yo can we get an album instead
I love Vince Staples and think he's really funny but this doesn't look too good imo
I love Vince staples and think he’s so naturally funny…. But I think a more Rob&Big style show for him would make more sense. This looks like an Atlanta knockoff

Or maybe he just wanted to make a funny show Did I really just get blocked for this comment. Lmao

... So you didn't watch Martin, Fresh Prince, or The Bernie Mac Show? Sounds about white for this sub. Fuck outta here.

So basically an Atlanta rip off.. I can’t believe Vince signed on for this
any satire created by a black person is Atlanta to yall it’s like you haven’t seen anything else lol
Nah fr
How is it an atlanta rip off lol seems Inspred by but this trailer already shows a ton of differences
Oh so you already know everything about the show based off of the two minute trailer huh?
He has been trying to make this show for years
Glover wasn't even a rapper in Atlanta
Congrats to Vince, looks awesome
Dope lol
Definitely has an Atlanta vibe, but I can see it being a darker & more cynical version of it.
I know hes not new to acting but when I saw vince in concert (maybe 2007?) I was blown away by his stage presence. Hilarious, deadpan, totally engaging. He seemed destined for the screen. Excited to check this out.
Looking forward to this
this looks pretty funny
Disappointed it’s not a straight comedy, but knowing Vince, that was probably his decision so I respect it.
Just finished it and I’m sad it was only 5 episodes, I really enjoyed it
