Childish Gambino’s 3005 Video FINALLY Explained

Подробнее о видео

Dissect unpacks the meaning behind Childish Gambino's 3005 music video. Far from a simple love song, 3005 expresses Gambino's existential loneliness on display throughout the world of Because The Internet. Through the video's use of a few key symbols (a decaying teddy bear, ferris wheel) and a unique looping structure, Donald Glover questions our so-called solutions to the existential threats of the world. Finally, we compare 3005 and This Is America, and how Glover uses the same visual technique to convey a similar overall message.

This video is a part of the Dissect Podcast's 13 episode season analyzing the music, lyrics, and meaning of Because The Internet by Childish Gambino. Listen on Spotify () or wherever you get your podcasts.
