    • +trany from gamestop that was funny not our whole culture been stolen that’s not a black thing

    • +Edward Williams And instead of fighting to get back what’s yours, y’all blacks let the white people have it as if to say: “Oh well white man took our art for they own gain.. awe shooooot let’s go create a new form of art… I do hope we create another powerful artistic movement and just maybe I say just maybe whitey won’t take our accomplishment away from us ya dig?!”

    • Did you even listen to his version? or you’re just siding with gambino because he’s more popular 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

  1. I just listened to his song American pharoah and I believe childish Gambino stole his song

    • Gambino has been working on this is America for years. They have the receipts to prove it. This Harley dude wants clout and I’m happy that CG doesnt acknowledge this clown so he can get a little famous. What makes people assume someone as big as CG would steal some wack woke butthurt artist from NY??

    • Some people are tone deaf, I just watched a video with jase song over gambino’s video and it matched perfectly with it. He definitely stole that, he owe this man.

    • +dominique roberts it’s not a stolen song. People make similar things as lol the time and this is America was made years ago and only got released last year.

    • Kori Kelli he did the same thing robin thicke did with The blurred lines song. If what you say is correct why didn’t gambino issue a statement and correcting the guy with the facts? if perhaps what you saying is even a fact? Did he?

    • +dominique roberts yeah him and his team spoke out on it and have the recording log to prove it. Gambino worked on that song for a while. They have put out a statement against it but denying something doesn’t mean you’re telling the truth. The fact they have recording logs is the reason no one believes the allegations. Gambino would’ve been buried if they couldn’t prove the song was an original piece of work.

    • joe don how about the ones that did? Oh my bad these men don’t speak on the women that actually wanted them they want and reflect on the ones who don’t want them and use them as an excuse to swirl 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

    • People cannot take accountability, nor “can we all just get along”. Lets unify. Let Love Live. Music is the ultimate savior.

    • Cause you guys are really dumb. Like scientifically proven lower I.q than the rest of the world. So there’s your answer. Your entire race is just plain dumb. And proud to be dumb. Don’t blame science either. Blame your mother and father.

  2. Donald Glover isn’t pro black, he isn’t an activist etc. He is an artist. He literally is SUPPOSED to make art that reflects life. Between Atlanta and his music, he doesn’t have to stand on the table. His authenticity is in his work. Some artist aren’t trying to encourage change, just thought or the empathy needed for change. Donald Glover is just a small piece of a larger puzzle. If he tried to be more, he would be silenced. He can make art, WE have his back on the commentary.

    • Guess he did his job by creating contraversy..I’ve noticed in music,tv,movies,etc.,that most of the time contraversy wins..

    • Many, artist have done “MORE” and werent silenced! So, if he was at least he would have taken a stand!!

    • +Aupa Atleti only the privileged can say that loud is never called for. Protest are sometimes loud, a scream for help is sometimes loud for attention purposes.

  3. What he is saying is Childish Gambino used the oppressions of blacks to climb the ladder or (a slave getting a bigger room in the house). Instead of using that ladder to speak on the actual oppressions.

  4. How is childish Gambino a house slave ? He actually gives back to the black community

    • He gives back to the other house slaves all while telling on the field slaves for their (corporate/bureaucratic) masas
