New Video: Childish Gambino – “This Is America” [WATCH]

Over the weekend Childish Gambino made multiple headlines starting with his “Saturday Night Live” appearance in which also performed and premiered his new single “This Is America.” Shortly after the “ATL” star released the visuals for the track.

Co-produced by himself and Ludwig Göransson, the trappy beat allows Gambino to spit bars about the land of the free and the injustices people of color face everyday. “This is America / Don’t catch you slipping up / Look what I’m whipping up! / Get your money, black man,” he raps.

The single also includes a choir and a lit of rappers who come through with ad-libs throughout. Rappers that can be heard on the song include Big Sean, Young Thug, 21 Savage, Offset, Kodak Black, and others. Thugger also provides the outro vocals.

In the Hiro Murai-video Donald Glover appears shirtless with khaki pants and is seen smiling, dancing around, and losing his temper as he shoots at a singer and a choir. The video is juxtaposed with gunfire, blood splatter, rage, rioting, and graffiti. TDE’s SZA makes a cameo in the ending.

Gambino is currently working on his forth studio album which is expected to be released soon under his Wolf + Rothstein imprint via RCA records. It will be his final album under his Childish Gambino alias and is potentially also his final on RCA before he moves on to Atlantic Records.
