“Feels Like Summer” is from the singer/rapper/actor’s forthcoming debut album. It’s rumored to be dropping in a few weeks:)

Childish Gambino

Mesmerizing. Disturbing. Violent. Beautiful. Tragic. Materialistic. Melodic. Chaotic.https://t.co/jET1KfgRvx

After you've watched #ThisIsAmerica twice or 3x, watch it again. But this time, ignore Donald completely and just watch the background. Whew.

One of the most beautiful, painful, honest pieces of art I’ve seen in my entire life.

“This is America” encapsulated the Black Experience with song, dance, melody, tone, facial expressions, eyes, shocking violence, humor, beauty, and so much more. https://t.co/uEapN4E6It

Summed up: The American fabric is selling distractions and superficial livelihoods, while in reality avoiding gross systematic issues that we ignore because it’s easier to live a lie than to confront the truth. #ThisIsAmerica Childish Gambino Donald Glover #PoliticsNation pic.twitter.com/rPuu5Ycsc4

Childish Gambino showing us #ThisIsAmerica, where it’s easy to get caught up on meaningless materialistic things or fads while completely ignoring the stark realities & systematic violence around us.

Honestly, Childish Gambino intended for people to be disturbed, shocked, and angry when they watched this video. This is what so many black people deal with EVERY DAY, and you can’t handle it in a music video.
Wake up. #ThisIsAmerica

This new Childish Gambino has the exact same message and the J. Cole album and is presenting it in the exact same way, only it’s not preachy and boring. See? It’s possible lol

#ThisIsAmerica is a word.

People dancing and partying while chaos is happening all around them.

Ignoring murder, police brutality, protests and mayhem to do choreographed group dancing.

What makes @donaldglover so special as an artist for me is that as he’s evolved and found his voice, he’s sheds any need for the hyper-masculine veneer that many of his peers cling to. The way he raps/sings, moves his body, and embodies the work is so grounded. #thisisamerica

I've watched #ThisIsAmerica a few times now, and I honestly would take a college class next semester exclusively devoted to studying this video, its details/commentary, and its implications on the modern American consciousness. @donaldglover is a genius.

On my timeline I see people saying Gambino’s new video #ThisIsAmerica is propaganda against the 2nd amendment.

All my favorite people get called propaganda against the 2nd amendment.

All my favorite people are being honest about the current state of America.#StopGunViolence

Donald Glover's #ThisIsAmerica is such a cool music video for showing how many split personalities America actually has + how the culture puts blackness in several narrow boxes at the same time.

He then encapsulates what black folks are processing in this American moment: We live in an age of jaw-dropping creativity (see black visual arts, lit, music, etc.). But that joy can be interrupted at any time by these increasingly frequent acts of violence. #ThisIsAmerica pic.twitter.com/MTDL8AyRYf

So many layers of symbolism
-References to mass shootings & hysteria
-Black men shot; meanwhile the guns are handled with care
-The current state of hip hop; seemingly unaffected by anything going on

I could go on. Donald Glover you nailed it.#ThisIsAmerica

People are so caught up in Gambino’s shoot that they don’t even realize what the hell is going on in the background. He’s literally talking about people who don’t care about what’s happening in society, but care about the latest dance fad. He’s talking about y’all.#ThisIsAmerica

Donald Glover is starting as Lando in Star Wars, releasing an album, completed season 2 of Atlanta, working on season 3, doing music videos, hosting SNL and wrote a script for Deadpool (FX you fucked up)

[caption id="attachment_2900314" align="alignleft" width="696"] Source: Paras Griffin / Getty[/caption] Donald Glover's alter ego, Childish Gambino, is back! While hosting SNL this weekend, the talented singer, actor and screenwriter also dropped a video for his newest song "This Is America." The stunning visual and shocking video juxtaposes riots, police and gun violence happening with Childish and others dancing, ignoring the chaos around them. And from the look of it, it's got Twitter shook...and for good reason. Here's what people are saying.
