In a surprising revelation, Donald Glover recently shared that his hit single ‘This Is America’ was initially meant to be a diss track directed at Drake. This revelation has shocked many fans who had no idea about the original intention behind the song.
Glover explained that he was inspired to create the song after feeling frustrated with the music industry’s tendency to follow popular trends rather than creating unique content.
He initially wanted to create a diss track to call out Drake for being a follower rather than a leader in the industry. However, as he began to write the lyrics, the song evolved into a commentary on the state of America and its issues with gun violence, racism, and police brutality.
Despite its original intention, ‘This Is America’ has become a cultural phenomenon and a powerful commentary on the issues that plague our society. Glover’s decision to change the song’s direction ultimately resulted in a message that resonated with millions of people around the world.
