‘’This Is America’ is a painful yet perfectly timed masterpiece, what
Glover seems to do best.’ Fairfax

‘A sardonic, sharp, confronting examination of police brutality, race and racism, cultural appropriation, ‘terrorism’, gun ownership and so much more, ‘This Is America’ has sparked reactions around the world.’ i-D

The Hiro Murai-directed video for ‘This Is America’ has been the most viewed music video on YouTube for 13 days in a row, and reached #1 on the YouTube Songs chart in 11 countries. The video earned 85.3 million views in its first week on YouTube, making it the biggest first week debut of any video this year. The video for ‘This is America’ is also tied for the 5th fastest music video to reach 100M views in YouTube history, reaching the mark in under 9 days.

NPR describes the visual as ‘a shocking and brilliantly produced video for the song that’s left fans and music critics scratching their heads for days,’ while The Fader proclaims the track as ‘a whiplash of a song that jolts from celebratory to terrifying, repeatedly — a lot like the news, I guess.’ The Washington Post declares ‘Watch it once, and your eyes will naturally be drawn to his movements and facial expressions. Watch it again, but focus on the chaos reigning in the background. Watch it a third time, and the reason for this juxtaposition becomes increasingly clear.’ Paste predicts, ‘May is far too early to be crowning a music video of the year, but ‘This Is America’ absolutely warrants that kind of talk.’
