The way he stands still for like the first half of the song gives me such an unsettling feeling for some reason
es intesionado, de esa manera generan contraste suspenso y incomodidad en el espectador.-
HE MEANS BUSINESS
He's standing like a slave on the auction block
The whole song is supposed to be unsettling, it's all intentional.
That little girl dancing at the end is just about perfect.
Yes! 🙏
I remember being blown away by this performance. The next morning, he dropped the video, and, well...the rest is hisory.
That's what I remember, seeing him doing it on SNL. The next day everyone was talking about a video and I'm thinking it's the SNL performance. Seen the video and was like this is on another level all together. I liked the SNL performance though, the lyrics and his performance were incredible. Hell he was incredible period the whole night.
I thought it dropped simultaneously the same night
Hands down one of the most powerful SNL performances Ive ever seen.
Kendrick’s SNL performance has entered
THE most powerful being Prince.
This is the shit though
The best ‘popular’ song released in the last ten years easily. You can feel the intelligence behind every aspect
Check out “American Pharaoh” by Jase Harley
Ok, you can feel the plagiarism @@BabeWest
Pop music really brings out the incorrect opinions huh
🙄
I like this better

CRIMINAL TO REMOVE THIS FROM SNL , what a performance
What happened
Well they had to eventually. They are only allowed to have music performances on their RUclips channel for a limited amount of time due to licensing issues.
3:11 God I love that raspy vibrato wail! 😄❤️
Donald Glover is just incredibly talented at everything he sets out to do! Thats a Legend! ❤
Shout out to this kid dancers too, they killed it!
That note was on point, wasn't it???
@@scoobstopb Right!? ❤️
James Brown
Man, the leg work is the best part of his last dance and even camera ppl at snl didn't realise previously..
This was a revolutionary moment in television.
This remains one of the most powerful songs, and performances, ever made. I imagine if Prince was still alive, he would happily be in the back playing every instrument while Childish Gambino rapped.
One of the most important songs from recent American history IMHO
I wish he would come back to music. We need him. 🇺🇸
We do.
Damn! Now THAT is a performance! Major props for your talent brother.
Love love love love those dancers! 😍
Thanks for uploading this, was trying to find it. I remember when this dropped and watching the video over and over until the studio version came out. The lights starting at 2:46 were insane.
The lights were done by Adam LaBay, a real beast on this field.
And there is a video from Tom Scott ("Stopping A Laser Beam In Mid-Air") were they show how to make something similar (but at very smaller scale).
@@FelipeFTZ jk I
INSANE!!!
Can't ignore that, after the beat drops, the lighting cue is intentionally Cherries-n-Berries. As someone who has had a dissociative panic attack in the back of a squad car with those reds and blues clicking endlessly, it can't be missed.
Noticed that as well. My heart started beating faster immediately.
i showed this performance to every single one of my friends even though i knew they dgaf 😭😭
Same fr
You need a few more friends then.
Dunno why, buy the little girl dancing at the end made me tear up a little bit.
same
Same
loss of innocence
yes!! like wth!?
I love when this man dance he be looking so free
I was so confused when I couldn't find this anymore on YT and I'm so glad that it's back
This performance told such a Deep story. Awesome visuals and vocals, Dramatic!! Awesome.
That high note at 3:08 😫❤
There was a moment where I was watching Donald, waiting for him to start moving, then I suddenly realized I was missing out on some amazing moves from the dancers to his left!
If accuracy was a song
One of the greatest SNL performances ever
Glover is a literal genius 🐐
Beautiful work of art
3 min 46 seconds of absolute artistic excellence.
Brilliant track.
the stillness, focus and release in this performance is an immense inspiration to any artist
Nobody has ever reminded me of Prince before, until the end of this performance. Brilliant.
Beautiful pure art.
Talent showtime! 👏👏👏
Thanks for this
This is brilliant! Incredible social commentary, production, and performance.
This is Art
The live audience didn’t get to experience how crazy that second part was.
I get chills every time he wails
He sings just like it is in the video
Our country's new national anthem
What a great all-around talent.
Those Dancers are fire !
ART !!!
Preach!
Uma musica e letra impecável e um clipe melhor ainda! 2024 e essa musica continua fazendo tanto sentido😢❤
Rage Against the Machine was the last protest music with this much power, that was popular. Crazy that this is the dude from Community.
wow.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Fucking nailed it!! Well done, all! Incredible dancing, too 🤩
Wow, that was great.
This is fire!
This is important art
Love it…………
fire
i love how he shouts out OAXACA!!
Music has no limit
Song has no limit
Dance has no limit
Creativity has no limit
donald glover 🔥🔥
2:52 to the end is my favorite 🔥
Still going to be awhile before we all catch up to this track……keep watching Childish Gambino for insight
Maravilhoso
He’s so damn talented
Bro in the first half of the song 🧍♂️
Those lights and projectors at the end, bruhhh
He did the evolution of the way Blacks are seen in this country. His standing still at the beginning with his hands behind his back was a slave on the auction block. Then slowly, very slowly, his hands come down and now he must entertain the masses.
😢
the problem about this performance is that it ends
Props to Childish Gambino, the real stars of this performance are the kid dancers.
❤❤🖤❤️❤️
Young Thug outro is genius 3:20
these dancers killed it. and that was the point. listen!
I miss memories this is American 2020-2021
❤🥲
'WE' are something else, I tell ya.
❤wow. Very cool performance. Where can I find those floor laser lights?
This is the Falcon Han
It did the Kessel Run
You cannot steal it Han
Those lights tho!!! Great performance!!!! The end with the little girl at the end was a great way to end that. I'm really happy he used children to get some exposure and just show off the talent!
I don’t think I like it, but I appreciate it.
Essa inercia dele, mesmo a musica rolando,os bailarinos dançando é desesperador! Mostra quê é exatamente asim que estamos e agimos diante das brutalidades e violência embaixo do nosso próprio nariz.
To think when this showed and the video appeared, it was shocking. It is now reality, has been,, is now and will be. Unless we accept one another and join together. We will not win as a species unless we learn to live together.
He has a backing track drop out on purpose in this
need new more music
What type of lighting fixtures were those? I work in theatre and I have never seen fixtures do what those were doing.
Did the artist doing the adlibs record with him or he took it from other songs? This dude is genius !
Recorded with him. It's 21 savage doing the adlibs I believe
@@IBedtimeCookiesOMG IT IS?!
If this is America then I must be Canadian 🥁
Can anyone tell me what kind of lights these are or how they work? Any info would be great thanks!
www.precisionlasers.com/projects/childishgambino You can find out everything about them here
Pretty sure theyre lasers
Only works in-camera.
It looks like he's about to be sentenced to the Phantom Zone!
Kanyes runaway being in my recommended after this is great
Song is great no doubt.
But how do the lighting affects work???
How did they get the lines to stop and start???
I want to guess that it was projected aligned from the camera but the dancers cross the beam.
I'm sure it is probably stupidly simple so help me out
Donald Glover is inordinately talented.
How are they bending light? What is this sorcery?🤔
The fact it was a drake diss at first makes it unbelievably and arguably even more enjoyable. The talent that create this masterpiece. I thank god it came out like this
how was it a drake disa
damn what's going on with those lights, that's quite a visual experience
Lights frequencies sync with the tv camera own frequency ;p
Theyre projectionlasers, can put pictures into the sky, its like hologram type shit but not quite there yet. Look em up :)
Only works for the camera.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is like seeing Billie Jean performance or even better, Blows my mind.
💜🫂
bro the singing shout he did at 3:12 has always captivated me. it's incredibly powerful & he nailed a type of voice & note I'd only heard old R&B queens do 🖤
Más de cien años de tortura
La Nova Trova cantando en plena dictadura
Somos la sangre que sopla la presión atmosférica
Gambino, mi hermano, esto si es América
son, that hologram is something else... he had sfx filters happening live in-camera
This song makes white people feel deep.
Agreed!
If it doesn’t, you are a dead soul.
The "O Superman" of the Trump era
this is USA, not america ;)
Sad af..
Crazy how Drake ended this man's career when he found out it was supposed to be a diss
I’m not a hater. But I have to point this out, this is not Childish Gambino‘s most lyrical song, but it came at a time when racial tensions were boiling up pre- BLM. So this was that cultural glue through music that really spoke a certain message, although I will admit it’s not really clear, what the message is aside from setting some vibes.
I want to challenge everybody to analyze what is being talked about, although I understand, just like Michael Jackson’s thriller, this song has many elements musically through African culture that really emphasize its significance. But again lyrically not much is being said, and it’s repetitive. In conclusion, I’m not a hater, I’m just challenging you guys in the messages.
Does he sing or just talk? Weird.
The victim hood is realz
ignorance is realz
we have the same pfp omg
