Christopher Thomas True, but I also was trying to figure out if the colors of the thumb nail, which follow a repetitive pattern (red-orange-yellow-cyan-green-blue-purple), had assigned a specific subject (animation, music, movies, etc); however, it does not seem to be the case. So far it seems he picks a subject that would match the color of the thumb nail (like watchmen with yellow, superman with red). But I guess I'm overthinking xD
I'm really impressed by the amount of editing that went into this. Refreshing to see this kind of content compared to what most other people just throw out and get done in a day.

I knew I was in for a treat with KK when his first video was well done; a lot of popular content creators had early days on their channels when they put out chaff, but the pros just show up and say "BAM!

Also Al gets trolled by a guy (his name is zane I think) Zane works for a pizza place and with that little kid that cusses alot. Earn ends up having to get pitty from daruis (his phone) to get the money he needs to time. BTW why am I explaining this to you? How am i supposed to know that you actually do not even wacth this show and just trying to be cool? I knew about this show months before it aired.

Donald Glover is a legend.
He's just exploring new grounds. He should be admired for his effortsto improve himself unlike some people who confine themselves in a room of comfort who never experience growth and potential. The fear to fail is too much for them, as such, making them weak when they stumble and fall and to frail to stand out among the rest.

YOOOOO! This is probably the absolute best video on youtube. I have been obsessed with Gambino : seen everything from comedy to Clapping For The Wrong Reasons, listened to all of his albums, and read the screenplay. The video voiced everything I like about him. After I Gambino, I started getting into other rappers and when they showed Chance and Logic it just blew my mind, i have all of Logic's albums on Iphone!!!! Thanks soooo much kaptainkristian!!!!

Appreciate the work you did on this. Legit editing and good points throughout. Nice man.
I've been watching you put out videos for a while now and I gotta say that I love your style and all the topics you hit. Keep it up
*Storytelling through Music* - I pursue the same concept as a music composer. Hip-Hop is definitely on the top of the *Storytelling through Music* concept, but hopefully there will be other genres doing this as well in the future! ;) 🎧 This guy definitely knows something!
this channel rose to one of my favorites since Superman video dropped

every time i stumble upon your videos, i see the intro and immediatly go "FUCK YEAH" because they are quality, good shit bud
I love is channel, I love these videos. Such fantastic quality and effort.
I wish you could talk about Awaken my love album 😧❤
As nerdy black guy I appreciate guys like Gambino, Lupe Fiasco & Tyler (& Kanye to degree for opening the door) for showing that being nerdy or straying from the stereotypes isn't inauthentic or "unblack". I feel Donald did get criticised the most for this but I'm glad he persevered and made a name for himself. Bino starring in his own show airing on a big US network could possibly lead to a major role in an A-list film & help black actors break out from the usual roles they've been pigeon-holed into.
Sometimes I feel that this channel was tailor-made for me!!!! Excellent job, really love the content!!!!
Another top notch video! You're a beast man keep em coming
Watching "This is America" is the first time I truly understand what you mean, Kristian. Glover absolutely nailed the messages, visuals, dancing... Even though the song is not that goood to just listen to on its own (in my view), it's almost a parody itself of black music today and heavy, grimy rap. Awesome artist!
