Childish Gambino's new song "Sweatpants" has leaked online, and the rapper (also known as Donald Glover) is NOT happy about the premature release.

"Sweatpants" arrived online sometime in the middle of the night on Monday (Nov. 25), and ha since made its way around the Internet. The track itself continues to show raw growth in the 30-year-old rapper. A creeping beat twinkles in and out of the instrument mix as Gambino questions some of the finer things in life. "Sweatpants" also features an impressive turn from up-and-coming rapper Problem.

Following the news of the leak, Gambino took to his official Twitter account to express his displeasure.

"f--- this," he wrote in a series of multiple tweets. "im pissed. this song was not supposed to come out tonight. im trying to create on of the more imaginative rollouts, and other people's lust for money and impatience is ruining it. to be clear, im not talking about my fans, or blogs, or anyone who posts my music after leaks. I want my music out. But it could've been better."

"Sweatpants" is one of 19 songs to appear on Gambino's upcoming sophomore album Because the Internet. The record is set to drop on Tuesday, Dec. 10. Before the leak of "Sweatpants," Gambino has already debuted "Yaphet Kotto," "3005" and "Shadows." Gambino performed the latter earlier this month on Arsenio Hall's new talk show.

Until Because the Internet drops, listen to Gambino's "Sweatpants" below.
