Childish Gambino has dropped a new music video for his song ‘Lithonia,’ and it’s full of shocking moments. The video, released on July 22, features Donald Glover performing in an intimate setting with his band. What starts as a simple performance quickly escalates into something far more horrifying.
As the music plays, Glover and his band get sweatier, heightening the tension. Suddenly, in a startling twist, Glover’s eyes pop out of his head, and bloody guts spill everywhere, shocking everyone in the room, especially Suzanna Son. The video also features unexpected appearances by Alex Wolff and Ludwig Göransson, adding another layer of intrigue.
Suzanna Son, known for her roles in ‘Red Rocket’ and ‘The Idol,’ doesn’t stick around to see what happens next. She bolts out of the cabin-like home, sprinting through a field with Glover in hot pursuit. As she runs, the tension mounts, ending the video with a scream and a fade to black, leaving viewers in suspense.
The song ‘Lithonia’ is from Childish Gambino’s new album, ‘Bando Stone & The New World.’ This album stirred controversy upon its release, mainly due to a track called ‘Survive’ featuring Chloe Bailey. In ‘Survive,’ Glover seemingly disses Joe Budden over his past rap career and switch to podcasting, sparking debates across social media.
One of the lines in ‘Survive’ directly addresses Budden, saying, ‘They in the minor leagues, but I’m pro-black/ I bet he hate his mom, how you know that?/ You got a podcast ’cause you can’t rap/ You on some Fresh and Fit shit, talking body counts/ I count a body every time I’m on tracks.’ This jab did not go unnoticed, as Budden responded fiercely on his podcast.
Budden, who retired from rapping in 2018, has been known to criticize major artists like Drake and Cardi B. In fact, Budden remarked that Drake would ‘smoke’ Gambino in a battle, adding fuel to the fire. This back-and-forth reached a peak when Budden mentioned Gambino’s hit ‘This Is America’ started as a diss to Drake, further intensifying their feud.
Prepare yourself for a wild ride with Childish Gambino’s ‘Lithonia’ video; it’s a jaw-dropping experience from start to finish.
