13258072, I think he's gone through a personal evolution.

If you listen to his albums in chronological order, there's a marked difference in tone and themes. His first album 'Camp' contains a lot of whining about being too white for black people, not being accepted for wearing cut-off shorts, black people thinking he was gay, etc., which resembles the Donald Glover your friend described. But a lot of that fell away with his subsequent records, and isn't reflected in his other work. 'Atlanta' and "This is America" don't feel like they came from the same person who made 'Camp.'
