This is America

Childish Gambino, or Donald Glover, is a music artist, director, actor, writer and comedian who I enjoy watching perform. He has Produced the song 'This is America' and director Hiro Murai helped produce the shocking and powerful music video with Glover as the frontman to it. The video addresses the issue of gun violence, racism and mass shootings in the US via the use of hidden choreography and other means. After it debuted on the 5th of May 2018, it became the 31st song to debut at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 whilst also topping the charts in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand.
