Donald Glover just released a very controversial music video a few days, which obviously made everyone lose their minds, and kinda go "Yes, that is America." There is really a lot going on in the video, and it just shows how big of an artist Gambino really is...
Probably all the YouTube reactors reacted to this video already. And those who were thinking about started doing a YouTube reaction channel... started reacting to videos after this particular video was released.
The main two scenes in the video are, obviously, the most striking ones - the two murders. The video starts with Glover just dancing, shaking his body in a really funny way, shirtless with pants on... Everyone who watches it is just smiling all the way through. Suddenly, he just grabs a gun and kills the guitar man, without any particular reason. After that controversial scene, he kinda continues dancing, more dancers come into the scene and everyone is kinda starting to get what he is trying to say. For those who still don't have an idea of what's going on, I think they they won't have any doubts after the second shooting scene, which represents the Carolina church shooting.
For those who still don't get it, here is a quote from a YouTube reactor Yousef : "We're trying to sell you on happiness when there's misery going on all around you".
However, there are some things that aren't that obvious, but still have a hidden meaning.
For example, this white horse in the
scene holds a much bigger meaning, and I'm pretty sure everyone kept looking at
Gambino dancing in this shot. It represents Death (person dressed in
black, without a face) riding the white horse followed by Hell (police),
going totally unnoticed because of pop culture and having fun in the foreground.
There are even more examples, like this scene for instance. Some say that Gambino handing a gun to a person who then grabs and holds it very carefully represents how guns are well treated in today's society.
