It’s not often that a music video manages to successfully synthesize as much that’s happening musically, culturally, and politically as Childish Gambino’s “This Is America,” released Saturday, but if everyone involved hadn’t been aiming high, they never would have titled a song “This Is America” to begin with. That’s a great-American-novel sized title, and if you had any doubts about Donald Glover’s genius (Childish Gambino is a stage name he uses for his music career), watching “This Is America” successfully live up to its name should dispel them.
