¨I used to care what people thought, but now I care more¨,¨So insecure, no ones perfect¨

Alot of people I know are very insecure and even myself and I personally think everyone at some point is insecure until they realize nobody really cares and nobody is perfect and that we should all just focus on ourselves

Anazlying Lyrics

¨This is America¨ ¨Guns in my area¨ ¨I got the strap, I gotta carry em¨

These lyrics all talk about gun violence and just guns in general. Gambino shows more about specific examples and the toll guns have on America mainly more in the music video showcasing black lives being affected by guns and bad influence and the ¨necessity¨ people think they need it to survive because of the violence and guns in their areas as well. This music video and song in general is very ¨real¨ in a sense that hes talking about the globally problems people face not just African Americans

Donald Glover's fashion sense is unique compared to other artists and people in general. He is mostly seen wearing fashionable suits and always having an ¨exotic¨ look when he is out for awards and fancy occasions. Donald's fashion when he is just out for normal errands he wears more normal fits but his uniqueness of colors and different styles and different materials is still there. Donald is never afraid to dry different styles or reveal skin during his fits which is amazing for anyone having such confidence as Donald.
