Rewatching this masterpiece immediately after watching Bando Stone and The New World trailer cuz that shirt....and the chickens....and the location....😳
yesssirrrrrr
ME TOO
Same had to come back
100% came back because it's got to be the same location.
Is it the same character? This story is before.. and Bando stone is a type of sequel?
STILL BUMPING THIS IN 2021. ONE OF THE GREATEST TUNES EVER FROM MR GAMBINO
Hy
yesss
yesssahh
Facts
and 2022
This song hits different when you’re from Oakland and made a big move somewhere far away 😩. So nostalgic
Whattttt
It does.
lmfao felt the same way but I was moving INTO Oakland
I moved to Oakland 3 months ago and this song hits different. I love it here!
Do you also turn into an Eldritch horror when you get hit by a car?
He sings, raps, hes a producer, writer, comedian and actor, where'd this man come from?
Lol you guys posted those comments about a week ago
Stone Mountain, GA lol
Don't forget Artist
Amen!

Creativity, originality, and beauty at it's finest. Donald is a genius.

He’s been off the map lately 😫

Played this nonstop in college, came back to it since I'll be 30 soon (in Oakland)
Nice
Love this
Jesus Christ about to graduate is it scary
Where was this filmed? I know it's Hawaii but not sure which island
In college right now, and listen to this song non-stop
if you're just discovering gambino like that enjoy it
I started listening to him when I was too young to fully grasp it and here I am 5yrs later, understanding this man is a mastermind
Bro😔
Best feeling ever though. I miss real music.
Same I just got into him but I should've a lonnnnnnng long ago 🥲
sameeeeeeee!!!
Ayo me too duuude! Lmfao I used to bump this shit all the time when I was little, im 18 now and I’m understanding this man is amazing and so smart
This guy has true talent. He's a writer, comedian, actor, singer, and rapper. God damn...
And dancer did you not see those moves like damn
and extraterrestrian.
Same goes for Tyler the Creator, except he's also like producer and manager and a bunch of other financial stuff for OF. Them two are my favorite people in the music industry.
So is drake
youngin oneverything
Dont mention Drake anywhere near
Gambino
9 years later still waiting to hear Llyods version of this song
pres fr tho!
There isn't version. They only recorded that beginning part for the video lol
@@kmoborn711 a couple years back Llyod tweeted that he was given the green light to make his version of Telegraph ave. and it was meant for his Playboy Diaries Vol.2 , but that's when he went mia for a bit. Never heard about it since ☹️
I was just thinking that 🤣🤣🤣
@@thanos3515 mina I give up lol
Had to come back to this after the Bando Stone trailer.
Came back from the Lithonia video. The two are damn similar in endings.
Can’t believe this song wasn’t as popular as “this is America”
Rightt
Worrrddd
In The Community Of People That “Has Been” Listening To Him And Actually Keeping Up With All His Talents Since His Earlier Years, Ofcourse Yes It Is..
Aweee what
He also had made atlanta and other big movie roles, had won many awards for atlanta and his album awaken my love by the point this is America came out so it received much wider spread attention. If Because of the internet was released within the last 2 years then it would have been considered a classic just given how big his name is nowadays
only childish gambino can do a song with jhene aiko and have HIMSELF on the hook lmfao

This comment is so underrated it deserves atleast 2000 likes 😂
Abed: “🎶Troy has turned into a mooonster!🎶”
@@billythecooljoe don't roll the dice
He was a alien 👽
@@beforemeandafter I can actually hear this. Only Abed would be singing it after becoming the next Inspector Spacetime.
This album “Because the Internet” turns 10 years old today. If you’re still here 10 years later drop a like! 🥹
Crazy how time flies feels like yesterday it was freshman year lol
wow
Still sounds new❤🔥
He freaking incorporated the Yoruba talking drum from West Africa at 3:00 and he dances smoothly to the rhythm of our ancestors. Really proud to be African. Childish Gambino is a living Picasso.
This was probably Ludwigs choosing, he also used it in the soundtrack for black panther.
@@simplypodly i know i heard that drum before
That Ludwig. Gambino resembles Papua new guineas people. We all can't be Hamites.
Ludwig put that there the whole way through. It sounds so good at 1:46
The talking drum is insane!! :-0
I believe, she not being concerned, symbolized that she knows that Donald has a monster inside of him, but she also knows that he will never hurt her and she is the one that calms the beast within.
Nice...
not enough people are talking about how he sprouted tentacles at the end of this video.
Zachary Kayani watch all the music videos starting in this order: The worse guys, Sober, Telegraph ave, sweatpants, and then 3005
@@uzixkun9902 sober is it's own video imo it was never in because the internet video screenplay it would be the when "the boy" was in his teen years becoming an adult
@@uzixkun9902 Whats the point ?
Milton pimentel it tells the story of the alien
Miguel Medina but wasn’t that the video where he was trying to communicate to the girl using dance, since he has already been taken over by the Alien from the worst guys vid?
Who’s here in 2020 can’t believe this song dropped 5 years ago.

Thumbs up 7 up

Yassss I wish it was main stream but then again I’m happy it wasn’t
Who's here in 2020 where he doesn't have abs and more
Because The Internet will forever by my favorite album by Gambino
wouldnt be so sure about that, hes releasing a new album, download " PHAROS earth" the countdown is over but it has info about Gambino
+LikoSaan how is it?
dude its so good. didn't come out yet but it doesn't need to for me to know that
Did you read the screenplay that goes with it? That shit fucked me up
I can't wait till PHAROS!!
I interpret this video as basically the locals (people from his past) know he's a monster/a bad person/a loser. Gambino is trying to leave that behind him and start fresh with Aiko. But the past won't let it go. They see him and see him doing well, so confront him about his demons and thus, bring the monster out of him. Aiko loves him regardless of his history. It's deep fam.
Yeah it can be interpreted in a number of ways. That's the genius of Gambino. Just shelled out £80 for his new vinyl! Fan boi alert, I know haha.
jack lefre that's a reach lol
R I think he gets possessed or whatever when he goes swimmimg~ that's why the locals know
Aliens not zombies
he has a alien storyline in these songs in order

Nah to late Jordan is doing candyman
Omg...
First time watching this video thinking it's just another cute love couple type of video but then ending comes along and f*cks me up..
Same I was like what the actual fuck happens then I looked at the story of his songs and it made sense
+Damien Ortiz too much Adventure time haha
Sober, The Worst Guys, 3005, this and I think bed peace all have something to do with an alien, there's videos that got in depth and shit it's crazy.
+Angel Torres do you have a link to it?
+Angel Torres same it seems to make sense
This song is underrated, give you nostalgia for a life you never had.
damn this song is so fire after that lithonia video
Im so infatuated with them being together. They just seem like they would beso perfect together lol
+ShamelessBroadway lol i ship them so hard it's physically painful
+ShamelessBroadway Right?! I've never wanted two people to date more in my life lol
n
+ShamelessBroadway They were never together. They said they were just friends.
+PrincessSarah090288 That's the point :) we think they WOULD be an amazing couple and are frustrated that they're just friends. Like in our perfect fantasy world they would be together. Wow, I just sounded like I care about that way too much lol whoops
For those who dont get the video heres the explanation of this video and previous ones!
in the worst guys, at 1 46 you can see a large wound on his lower leg. While he was in the water an alien entered through his body. in the video sweatpants everyone in the diner is a "gambalien" and by the ending everyone turns into gambino, the whole point of all of them being there was to be secret. as they all were meeting up to discuss on how they were going to take over the world. in 3005 everyone on the ferris wheel is young in the beginning and the teddy bear is clean. while the video progresses the bear starts to desecrate and the people in the back start aging and growing old, gambino stays the same meaning the alien form that took over his body has a side effect of not aging. also at the end the town is on fire meaning the gambaliens took over the town. this video shows that while gambino is on a getaway with Jhene Aiko, the townspeople discover that gambino is not just an outsider, hes some sort of extraterrestrial alien and that he is a threat. i also found that at 1:37 if you look at the very left inside of the cabin that you can see someone almost crawling or sneaking, this could easily reference to a line in 3005 that says "Assassins are stabbed in the back of my cabin" or it could have been a crew member in the shot, still worth pointing out. so in the ending they try to get rid of him and protect Jhene. but they didn't really plan the attack so they died. at this point gambino lost everything, his girl, his respect for himself (he never wanted to become an alien like he did and wanted nobody to know about it) and he figured out that he needs to leave and find something new. thats everything leading up to this video, the final piece is actually the song "sober." in sober the time period is estimated to be in the future of the last videos. theres snow falling and everything seems normal. the video takes place in a carry out restaurant where gambino is attracted by a girl who doesnt really give him the time of day and thinks he's some creep. after she gives him the chance they start dancing together and having fun. but even that didnt keep her around for long as she leaves the food place and he feels sad and alone again.
Nescoh I think your theory is genius,and agree with it all except for the sober link. I believe since sober is in a different album, it is an entirely independent timeline. I also feel that if sober was in the ''because the internet'' timeline, then the gambaliens would have over taken the world and there would be no other person then gambino. but that's just my opinion
My god I'm just now seeing all this
@@donavanrobinson4999 bro same I never noticed and I've been watching these for like 2 years
Had to throw a like just because I read the while thing 😂
Holy shit🤦🏿♂️
I slept on this album so hard here I am in 2020 appreciating the shit this album
Welcome to the club
Get on the Dissect podcast, they're doing this album right now and it's changing how I'm listening to these songs
Dude this album from start to finish just flows you don’t have to freaking change song it’s amazing. Albums like that are just so rare plus the album case it came in is like a hologram kinda thingy I made it into a box on my wall
@@chopkin that is exactly what I’m trying to tell everyone that the dissect podcast season seven is breaking down childish gambino and it really interesting
SAME HERE. Only added like one song I heard a while back and finally going through it today. 10/10 album
Bando Stone curious cats already arrived.
This video goes from
"Dang. The feels."
*To*
"What. The. Actual. Bino."
Gambino is too under rated
I really want him to stay under rated though. Don't want him getting too much into the mainstream spotlight.
***** I AGREE ! Everybody is sleep on him, but I think I prefer it that way.
***** Hipster Alert
AYEEE
I've seen u 5 straight uploads omfg
This album is a rare piece of music
It's literally perfect
Who's here after the Bando Stone trailer?
Yup I think this is the aftermath and she’s just a different survivor but Donald has already been abducted and is tryna save humanity as a covert operative
The movie seems like a continuation of this video

Childish Gambino is crazy deep! This was a stunning change of direction. Artistically done, surprising, strangely comical, and leaving much for the viewer to interpret. The unfinished story triggers craving. Childish Gambino keep being you. Annalope out...
The mind of Cheyann Klus is exciting and progressive.
Christina Cover has a quality mind that craves the unusual.
mahasonaDMX possesses a sparkling mind that is attracted to uniqueness.
IndiTheBoy maintains a vivid mind that enjoys something different.
The brilliant mind of Jennifer Van enjoys the unforeseen, electrifying, and creative.
if you dont hit that cough at the beginning you pretty much gotta start it over
😂😂🤌🏾
This gotta be my favorite childish song. Makes me feel like finding true love. I love it. This always been the one.
Same . Back in 2018 went to Lake District in England during summer with one of my exes. This song takes me back there every-time. Beautiful ♥

I guess he's not used to listening to things this Decent :/
Life was great when this song dropped
Just bought my first house at nineteen over in Hawaii, feeling accomplished - had to throw it back to Tgraph Ave. shits gonna be unreal.
Wow. Congrats! I don't think my parents would even think of allowing me 😂
Wow! How did you manage to afford that?
4:14 I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going
Nooooooo 😂😂
Haha gross
Lmfao

😂😂😂😂
Damn bruh my sophomore year couldn't have been that long ago.
Ikr god damn smh
That's what I'm saying!!
Right?
time to kill clock makers because killing time is not a hobby of mine... bars.
Freshmen get worse every year.. I just saw some kid throwing chairs around in the room
almost the same shirt as bando
I had never seen the video for this song.
Halfway through I was like "This is kinda sweet, very tame compared to This Is America"
Then BOOM! CAR CRASH! ALIENS!
And I was like "Ah, there we go"
His voice soothes me❤️
I know right😩
I mean I'm js you adding me on insta would be even more soothing
this dude is the smoothest flintstone Rock ive ever seen
you mean that radio girl's voice at the start
+Toasty that's a man dumb ass
Gambino, man, someone our generation can actually look up to. This guy's a genius.
The dude is creative as fuck...
both white guys
Jim The Walker ?
Gosh this song is so timeless it just makes me feel alive!
Finally old enough to understand Gambino. Been listening since 2014. My first love pmo 3005. As of this year I finished watching community. It’s like my ears have opened a bit more to fully recover the message. Got chills now. Love this song
It's crazy how i watched this and almost all of Gambino's other videos go from the hundred thousands (and some even less) to the millions almost overnight once he dropped redbone. It's amazing how one song can propel an artist to bigger heights then their entire previous catalog combined. And then that exposure results in the boom of sales in all their previous work. Which then goes to show that the music was always good. Some people just didn't know of him, while others need to be TOLD what to like without even realizing it. Many people don't like an artist until other people do, or until that specific artist gets steady rotation on the radio and music video networks. It's like they won't like somebody until it's confirmed by the masses or the labels that it's good music. Smh. Gambino BEEN tight. At least he's now getting the props he deserves tho. Better late than never.
That's called cultural mediation. Happens to movies, plays, shows, and in fact all art (painting, poetry, novels, etc.). That is the definition of art, when it spreads like that. When authors win Nobel Prizes, their books suddenly go out of print. Everyone wants to ride the wave once culture has picked it as significant.
Bruh yes, preach.
Same thing happened when This is America came out to his songs
Avocado Pirate As an artist it feels pretty shitty
@@xelestial_sky As an artist, you should know that art is not "consumed" uniformly. It always happens in spurts and bursts mainly as a reaction to external events that you as an artist do not control. You can do PR and stuff, but those are minor trends compared to a real explosion in followers. Like Andy Warhol's pieces were going for $10K one week and the next week for $10million.
this is fair but hes been big popping for a long, long time before redbone. redbone just propelled him into a mainstream classic
This guy doesn't make "videos" he makes movies!
TonyT yup
AND NOTHING ART!! 👏🎨🎼
5 Years From now and Still Hit's.
One of the most underrated tracks from his Album..❤🔥🌳🌳
Here from Lithonia
Did the same thing

Wowww! I recently discovered this artist and all I can say is "HOLY SHIT"! What a talented dude. I've seen him in a TV show and found out he's a singer as well? His videos are nothing less than mind blowing.
Imagine when you first found an artist that amazes you? Thats what I'm experiencing now.
yeah he's really good.
glad you've finally woke up n found him
"derrickcomedy"
try this channel out
You see him on Atlanta? cause hes the one who made that show
Troy and Abed in the morningggg!
I know they're friends but they're perfect for each other. Not Drake and Jhene, that doesn't work.
And what do we even care?!
***** I know that of course, but when people say "Dats Drakes girl" or "Drake gonna be mad she wit Gambino", that shit aint right lol
***** who cares what drake thinks
Bruh azzerz from 3 years ago?
Azerrz
But she was with big sean
This wonderful being has only continued to bless us. Can not wait any harder for the new album to drop. Still bangin this track
Is this the acclaimed musician bando stone ?
I really want childish gambino and woodkid to make a song together. They're so different yet so similar. One day... One day.
That would be epic
Oh man that would be amazing!
That'd be perfect.
***** lol that face tho
Wow. Can imagine. Epicness.
Gambino went on some Tokyo Ghoul type shit at the end.
Part 2 dropped today bro... What a coincidence
Lol yeah bro I read. It's gonna be sick.
hahahaha
i thought it was gonna turn into a japanese porno or some shit
Blazhin Blasian Part 2 of the video?
It’s crazy how Donald can be a actor and a musician. This man is inspirational.
Reporting from 2024
🫡
maybe change this to reporting in from 2024? 😂😂 I feel like some people might take this as reporting the song or something
yes sirrr 🫡 song never gets boring
Yeeee

Anyone else agree?

I don't please explain .
tentacle monsters bust a nut with japanese girls
Oh okay thank you
Mat Ceed laughed out loud at that for real
What the hell did Donald Glover watch Parasyte: The Maxim???
Little Lynkx w
Little Lynkx you deserve 100 likes for that, well said!!
Little Lynkx Its an alien storyline he created.
its a alien story line
the worst guys- he hangs out with some friends
sweatpants- aliens start taking over (the aliens all look like him)
sober- he thinks he meets his girlfriend but just imagines it
telegraph ave- aliens kill his girlfriend and friends (it was an alien the whole video)
3005- he waits to meet his girlfriend at the Ferris wheel but shes dead so he waits forever
watch all of them in order it makes sense
He's a Tokyo Ghoul fan
i think what i love most about this track is the chrous, but the production with the light synths and keys in the beat also enhance it to a whole new level for me
Not gonna lie as a Oakland resident my whole like he better have been in Berkeley when he met this girl on telegraph cause let me tell you 😂😂😂😂
What a talented group of brothers. I'm not sure who is more talented; Childish Gambino, or his brother Donald Glover. The two of them together would be one hell of a team. Don't they have a cousin who does stand up, or do they just kind of look alike?
You would think so, right? They are almost identical.
+Meme Master whoosh

Man, Oakland looks so different from what I remember...
they are in Kauai
Nah, the song specifically says "in Oakland."
@@Jaysiel1980 yeah but the video was shot in Kauai.
medboy78 but they’re saying “in Oakland” though, nothing about Kauai
Daniel laguna actually they do say something about kauai but they dont ever say they’re in kauai so this is still oakland yes?
I would do ANYTHING for this man to get serious about making music again
This album had such an effect on me man
Looks like Gambino seen Tokyo Ghoul lol
Weebs literally try to relate EVERYTHING to anime. That's why people don't like you guys.
mario roman aye, some love ya some ppl hate ya, same with you kid lmfao ignorance
Steady Rexy this video has nothing do with tokyo ghoul
Platinum World at the end, the monster kind of looks like a Ghoul
Steady Rexy more like an parasyte
Mind blown.
On a sidenote, this is my favorite Gambino song and it kinda makes me sad that it's gonna be heard by a bunch of fake gambino fans claiming they're hardcore fans. Sorry to have that hipster mentality
Facts tho, this song is 3rd on my Gambino list actually behind Firefly and All Yall but I definitely agree with ur point
Top 3 song for me
Do ya like (idk why but i have to listen to eight times before i switch tracks)

+Marc Ruder Umm because he is Childish gambino is his stage name
This song and music video is great, and people are still hating him? Some are even hating him for this song?
Crazy, right?
How is this song great? Its a typical Drakey track. If Drake did this same shit, people would eat it up too. Bino got wayyyyy better tracks than this.
Foolie Wow! Back up right there. This is what Drake, his producers and writers have been *trying* to do this entire time. Look up this song on rap genius. You probably do not like it because you probably did not get the lyrics. And the beat was produced by a music composer not a garden variety producer.
Foolie first of all this song may have a catchy tune it but lyrics are something ells, Donald refers to the internet as peoples gate way for their fucks ups and the reason why girls are sluts. He also shines light on his next ep kauai witch i think is pretty professional. When he talks about how this girl is really quick to make decisions like lets have a kid lets move in and after two dates she wants to bang. Then Donald talk about how now they aren't together cause she was so quick to make all these decisions. that their my sir is a good song that a tv show writer made that's how it is done
Scipioo Africanus I read the screenplay. IDGAF, about the screenplay. Don't get me wrong I liked The Boy's story and thought conceptually it was one of most unique thing done in Hip-Hop. or music period. With that said, I don't listen to songs in my car FOR A SCREENPLAY.. when I listen to a song in my car I need to like the WHOLE SONG not just the story line or the songs role in the BTI story.
And it sounded Drakey to me, but it didn't outdo Drake's comparable songs. That's where you and I differ. Its ok. That makes the world diverse. I swear Gambino fans and yall obsession with this fucking "story" is super lame. This man could burp on the track and say its abut "The Boy" and ya'll will talk about how the lyrics make it good....
Only 28 million.?!? This is madness.! 🤦🏿♂️ This man is a true artist. Borderline genius.
Gambino really knows the people and how much we love Lloyd thank you for this my man 😉, one of my favs with Les , 3005 etc haha
Everyone's going along with this "he's an alien thing". Here's my interpretation: if you notice, whenever he is hurt (gets hit by the car in this video, in the worst guys when he has that gash in his leg, in 3005 when everything is burning) he constantly stays by his lover. I think this is all just one big saga, even if you listen to the lyrics, telling a love story with the ups and downs and the great things but evil that can come out when it comes to loving someone. I may be completely wrong and delusional, but that's how i see it.
Seth Games its art and your perception of the piece(s) is all that matters. You have to give it your own meaning or at least thats what i always think
+Seth Games You're actually right. Look up "Because the Internet screenplay."
In an alternate universe, I know him and Jhené are together.
Nah she’s with Big Sean in ever universe 😂

As a East Bay/East Oakland Native growing up around International/98th & Mac: Respect it.
This song had me in a choke hold when I first heard it. "we'll both be 30 soon" use to reconcile with me so much because I was coming up on 30. Now hearing this song now at 31 hits different lol. Thanks for such a great song Gambino
I expected this song to be filmed in oakland but i still love this song.
