Donald Glover admits "it does bother me" when Atlanta is compared to Dave

Variety

In an interview Glover conducted with himself for Interview magazine, Glover confirmed he was annoyed by the comparisons between both FX comedies. Last fall, Glover deleted tweets complaining about the comparisons. Glover insists he likes Dave. “No! I like that show,” he said. “But it does bother me when Atlanta’s compared to it.” Glover also had suggestions for Dave. “The organic show should be about a white rapper who’s more successful than his Black peers from the jump,” he said. “Because he’s more accessible. But what he actually wants is to be part of the culture, but his success keeps him from that and a lot of his Black peers and friends resent him for it but also feel like they have to fuck with him because it’s good for them. That’s the internal struggle I see. Anyway.”
