“Sweatpants” by Childish Gambino
“Sweatpants” by Childish Gambino appears on 1 radio countdown from 1 station in 2014. Its best result is #60 on the Triple J Hottest 100 of 2014. In the combined RockLists rankings it is the #340 alternative song of 2014.
"Sweatpants" comes off Because the Internet, Childish Gambino's second album, where it shows up as "IV. Sweatpants", and it went out as the record's third official single in June 2014. Gambino produced it himself with Ludwig Göransson, and fellow rapper Problem hangs around the edges throwing in ad-libs.
It only crept to 24 on Billboard's Bubbling Under Hot 100, but the song has had a longer life than that chart run suggests. The video has racked up more than 160 million views on YouTube, Gambino has played it live many times, the This Is America Tour included, and a shortened, cleaned-up radio edit soundtracked the final fight in episode three of Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur.
