They dedicated time to talk about snoop's video about trump. Anything with Trump they're gonna talk about on that type of news show.

But as far as reaction from the masses, it's already got that. Celebs have already spoken up, there's gonna be podcasts about it, etc.

It's weird af to see alot of black people and big names support Childish Gambino. Never thought I'll see the day. Maybe Logic complaining ass will one day get the black support he wants lol

Most music videos are made to accompany a song.

This song was clearly made to accompany the visuals

Its more "art" than music

I'm so happy for Gambino man. Tbh ALL of his videos are creative and deep as hell and it doesn't get the recongition it deserves. Hell , I can recall on the IC I was telling everyone how Because the Internet was one of the most creative albums of the decade and how crazy it's overlooked. If people knew how much symbolism, messages, themes, and predictions he made with that album it would get more cred. Dude had a whole script to go along with it.
 
i thought this shit was hilarious, and nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo body felt me....





been tried to tell yall....dude is talented man.....

What’s the purpose of this video though? Like who’s it for?

I see a lot of Donald is doing what Kanye ain’t takes. I’m just wondering what that is. Taking nothing away from the video, one has nothing to do with the other. This story has been told already. The nigga people trying to down has told the story 100 times and better.

Just seems like a period piece to me. Donald is a dope storyteller and this is great art. I’m tired of the victim storyline though. We watch it, rave about it for a week and move on.

shut up nigga lol
 
Now that the video is being widely praised and acclaimed it's only natural for the CONTRARIAN CREW to smack their lips and spew their usually ""Well, he ain't all dat!""""So what!:mad:"" "" Niggas is sheep!"":mad:"It's just a video!!""""Obama ain't do nothing for black people!!!"" :mad: etc.etc.

@Goldie he was running at the end being pursued by a mob of white people right? Well, there's your answer...


Brilliant video all the same...
 
One perspective i saw based on the opening scene and the video was a deterioration of music as a whole. The track starts with the man playing the acoustic guitar and other instruments in the background.

He shoots him then jumps straight into the "buck dancin" and the beat switches up with less of a authentic feel sonically.

Musicians are dying

It's a emphasis on the rawness of the message, also to make you feel uncomfortable and uneasy, why it's his attempt to be free and expressive ironically.

Aye aight man I done read all these hyper analytical "thought" pieces on this shit and this right here is a reach. Y'all act like Gambino don't be out here lookin nutty on the regular. But otherwise, I don't think for a second THATS why he's shirtless. He's just shirtless to be shirtless.
