Donald Glover may have stepped away from his FX hit “Atlanta,” but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been busy. The AtlantaFX singer and actor Donald Glover recently released “Guava Island” featuring Rihanna. The movie has gotten mixed reviews.
The original movie, streaming for Amazon, has gotten mixed reviews from fans and critics alike.
Atlanta’s Donald Glover stars in Amazon’s ‘Guava Island’
The film was shown at the 2019 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. Glover, or rather his musical alter ego, Childish Gambino, headlined the event.
Glover stars as Deni Maroon, a music star on a tropical island. He’s in a relationship with Rihanna, who plays Kofi Novia, a woman who works in the textile plant, basically a sweat shop.
Watch ‘Guava Island’ on Amazon Prime here
The film also stars Letitia Wright, who picks up from her turn in “Black Panther,” to play Kofi’s co-worker and best mate Yara. Reviews have been nothing to praise-worthy for her.
“Guava Island” was directed by Hiro Murai, who helms “Atlanta.” The movie was filmed over a short period of time in Cuba.
The movie has a number of Childish Gambino songs old and new, including an alternate version of “This is America.”
Donc Guava Island donne encore plus de sens et un nouveau contexte à "This is America" presque un an après la sortie du morceau. ❤️ pic.twitter.com/5iGbLiW3UW
— Julien (@DukeofMars) April 13, 2019
Judging from fans’ reactions, “Guava Island” missed the boat on a few things: Many people thought it was self-aggrandizing and even a disappointment.Many others left feeling like “Was it a musical?” or “Was this a 55-minute music video?”We won’t reveal any spoilers here, but suffice to say that this was simply a delicious visual treatment that Glover and Murai wanted to get out creatively. That expression manifested itself in “Guava Island” this year. Next year or the next project, it will be something else entirely. And that much, we can be sure of.Atlanta is connected to so many movies these days that it’s hard to keep up with it all.

The inaugural BrandTech Day will be held at the Loudermilk Center in downtown Atlanta. The event will be held Saturday, May 18, 2019 from 10 a.m. to p.m.
BrandTech Day was created by the Atlanta Black Chambers for the purpose of giving local entrepreneurs some much-needed help with branding and technology.
BrandTech Day in Atlanta: May 18 in Atlanta
A recent study revealed that over 60% of the membership in the Atlanta Black Chambers weren’t confident that their businesses are identifiable in the marketplace.
Less than two-thirds of the membership surveyed didn’t even have a website.
Nearly a third of business owners felt that keeping up with technology advances was a major concern.
Melvin Coleman, executive director of the Atlanta Black Chambers said BrandTech Day will have a different the business focus from most conferences.
“Traditionally, a branding conference would have all branding professionals and an IT conference would attract all the IT professionals – because the objective is to provide professional development opportunities; whereas our objective is to give people some much needed help,” Coleman said.Read more: Another Whole Foods is popping up in Midtown -

To find out where the Atlanta sports bars are that have huge TV screens, good drinks, great food, accommodating servers, hip bartenders and more, we culled numerous reviews from our friends at Yelp, Google and TripAdvisor. This is what we came up with.
Here are the best Atlanta sports bars to watch the NBA playoffs.
STATS Brewpub
300 Marietta St NW, Atlanta, GA 30313, (404) 885-1472The go-to sports bar in downtown Atlanta, STATS is a short walk from the Omni, CNN Center and College Football Hall of Fame. Inside the brewpub, customers can try their hand at tabletop beer taps and exquisite food with screens all around to watch the NFL playoffs.One Google reviewer says: “This place was incredible! Service was excellent, food was amazing! There were so many delicious looking things on the menu that my waitress had to help me out with a recommendation. I’m glad I listened to her, the BBQ Brisket Burger was out of this world. The fries were really good too. And then she talked me into getting the key lime pie, it was every bit as good as everything else was. I will definitely go back whenever I’m in Atlanta again.”El Super Pan at The Battery
El Super Pan at The Battery is the perfect place to enjoy some Cuban-inspired dishes while watching your #1 sports team.Here’s why one Google reviewer says it’s the best sports bar in Atlanta: “The flavor in each dish, AMAZING! The agua tropical is refreshing and they always have a different variety based upon the season. Try them all! The decor is vibrant and the music uplifts your spirit. The staff here are awesome and Chef Hector is very engaging. He usually makes great recommendations in case you find yourself unsure of what to order. This restaurant is def my fav!”Dugan’s Restaurant
Dugan’s has been a reliable go-to spot in Midtown Atlanta about as long as its nearby neighbor, the Clermont Lounge. Lively entertainment, a constant dancefloor and all the chicken wings and beer you could want make this place a great sports bar.Here’s why this is one of the best sports bars in Atlanta: “Great dive bar complete with sassy bartender, interesting cast of characters at the bar and great wings. The wings have subtle differences from traditional wing sauces like Anchor Bar sauce. The drinks are poured strong. Their wings are better than their tenders. (They have a tendency to overcook). It’s a great respite for lunch compared to the chaos of Ponce City Market.”Ponce Sports Lounge
3924 E Ponce De Leon Ave Clarkston, GA 30021
Ponce Sports Lounge has hookah, live music and pool tables, but the chef-prepared food is the best in all of Clarkston. Although it is not a restaurant, you can order food up until 3 a.m. on the weekends.
Here’s what one Google reviewer says: “Was our first time at this venue and it was a GREAT experience. the server was pleasant and knowledgeable about the menu. The Chef bought out our entrees and was very personable
Food/drinks/ambience.”The U Bar
3515 Camp Creek Pkwy #50-70, East Point, GA 30344, (404) 349-2301The premiere sports bar at Camp Creek, the U Bar features cool music, wings specials in a club environment that is packed on the weekends.One Google reviewer says: “Pretty lit. Moreso a place to socialize, eat and watch games. Music was good . You can dance but Its not a club. Hoped this helped. Oh and 10 for women 20 for me. I heard they have good wings.”Popular party spot with sports, DJs & dancing, with drink specials & a full menu for dining.The Tavern
3560 Camp Creek Pkwy, Atlanta, GA 30344, (404) 349-9285The Tavern, known as Camp Creek’s OTHER sports bar, has events almost every weekday night, including karaoke, drink specials and more.One Google reviewer says: “The lemon pepper and hot mixed wings are AMAZING. I also enjoy their karaoke nights which are live and many patrons participate so it makes me feel okay because I can’t sing to save my life. I’d definitely recommend checking them out on Wednesday night and enjoy the atmosphere.”Hudson Grille
942 Peachtree St NE, Atlanta, GA 30309, (404) 892-0892Hudson Grille has three locations in Atlanta, one downtown, one in Midtown and the other one in Brookhaven. Huge TV screens at every turn and good food make this one of the best Atlanta sports bars to enjoy the game.One Google reviewer says: “Food is always great along with service and overall atmosphere. I personally come here frequently during football season because it is home to Raven Nation South, located in the upstairs area of the bar. I love the sports atmosphere that Hudson Grill provides.”Yard House
261 19th St NW #1100, Atlanta, GA (404) 815-8990Thanks to an awesome Midtown location (there’s another one at The Battery next to SunTrust Park) and above-average beverage program, Yard House at Atlantic Station has a devoted following among sports fans. The stylish sports bar’s patio is a great people-watching spot and the burgers, steaks and tacos on the menu make this place a must-visit to watch the NFL playoffs.
One Google reviewer explains why this is one of the best sports bars in Atlanta: “Happening place with excellent food! You just can’t go wrong with Yard House. We visit Atlanta every year at Christmas time, and Yard House has become a family tradition. The menu is extensive and everything we’ve tried has been delicious! They have an excellent Happy Hour … that includes a HUGE selection of 1/2 price appetizers. I think we have literally ordered everything on the happy hour menu! You can’t beat the price!”
Topgolf
1600 Ellsworth Industrial Blvd NW, Atlanta, GA 30318, (404) 475-4000Topgolf caters not to the golf fan so much, but the sports fan. With flat-screen TVs at every station, you can swing clubs or sit back and enjoy your game when you want it. Inside at the bar, you can see multiple screens from several vantage points while you eat and drink.
Here’s why one Google reviewer says this is one of the best sports bars in Atlanta:: “This is a really fun place for all age groups. If golf is not your thing, they also offer table tennis or ping pong upstairs and pool tables downstairs. The putting area is spacious. Of course it is outdoors, but they offer large heat lamps directly over the seating area. There are two levels to the seating area. The first is a high bar with chairs. The second is a u-shaped outdoor sofa with a center table. All food and drink orders can be placed from your bay. For each game, each player gets 20 chances to “put the ball in the hole”. You can take all 20 swings in a row or rotate players as you’d like. If you aren’t interested in playing any of the game options, you can also dine in or have a round at the bar. Enjoy!”
