This performance is in my top 5 of best things I have ever experienced (to date). I would always play it on trips to the bay/Oakland, but I didn't get closure until I saw/heard Bino perform it Live in Oakland. This song always felt special, it always seemed like so much more. I proceeded to listen to the song for the rest of the week on repeat, showcasing it to all my friends in the process. These little details are the reason why I love Gambino. CHORDS: Am Em C D ITS FINALLY HERE AND IM SO SORRY BECAUSE ITS REALLY BADtweet/comment if you got questions and i shall try and help to the best of my abi. I listened to it a second time and that's when I realized that It was actually a song within a song and that the "original" is sung by Lloyd. It felt like such an escape, it almost felt like I was with Gambino in his car on the way to Oakland. I started to smile as I realized that this song was about Oakland (I live in Northern California) and I loved the feel of the song. All of a sudden, the music stops and the man gives a suspicious look and continues to walk away.Īt the end of the video, the man returns, and without spoiling the video, stuff goes from 0 to 100 (more like 20 to 100 to be honest) real quick in terms of weirdness.I remember waking up, going online and screaming with joy at the fact that Bino had just released a new song. Jhené and Gambino’s characters are posing for a picture at the beach, and the camera assumes the perspective of the photographer. This theory could probably pass as accurate, until the latter half of the video, where it gets weird… like really weird. It should be worth noting however that the screenplay that narrates the album may be the inspiration for the video, which is why Gambino and Aiko are a couple in the video. The song is about the travel Gambino does to see a girl in Oakland. The song and video go hand in hand and bring the song to another level.

This song to me is an embodiment of his creativity and originality. Rumors have been spreading for about a year now as to if the two are an item, and while they both deny the claim, their chemistry in the video may have people thinking otherwise. is the seventh track from his album Because the Internet. Of course, Gambino’s love interest in the video is none other than Jhené Aiko. In terms of cinematography, it’s probably one of the most well produced music videos of the year. The video has some absolutely gorgeous shots. Gambino’s choice for the female lead is an interesting one.Īs a matter of fact, the whole video, for lack of a better word, is interesting.
