In Atlanta, Earnest 'Earn' Marks (Donald Glover) struggles to make money to pay the rent. Even his parents are tired of him looking to borrow. He's back with Van (Zazie Beetz) and their daughter Lottie. When his cousin Alfred Miles aka rapper Paper Boi (Brian Tyree Henry) gets a small hit, he decides to work as his manager. Darius (Lakeith Stanfield) is Paper Boi's hanger-on.

This is a unique quirky take on the Black-American experience. It's surreal at times. It's never safe. It is ambitious. Sometimes, it goes down some fresh paths that have never been traveled. These are compelling characters. All four leads are amazing. I love Brian Tyree Henry. Donald Glover has such confidence in his ideas. It's great TV.
