Keep in mind that Donald Glovers, This Is America, was originally a Drake disc record.
So it's so ironic that he's making a whole movie around the American dream with 21 Savage.
Somebody who's been influential and very impactful, some will say a MVP candidate in keeping Drake's career at the level where.
it is currently.
Because if you don't know,
some of Drake's biggest records,
I mean, Jimmy Cook's is still doing numbers to this day,
and that came out like two to three years ago,
leading up to the whole Drake and 21 Savage collaborative album,
her loss,
which first week sales-wise shouldn't have performed as well as it did
when it comes to two artists putting out a collaborative album.
So with that being said,
I think it was one of the most popular collaborative albums
of all time in hip-hop with,
Drake and 21 Savage.
So 21 Savage definitely brings his own core-like fan base.
And for Drake to have this type of beef with Donald Glover,
obviously I'm saying beef in quotation marks,
even though you can't see my hands,
because he technically only responded with the banner
while he was performing under his stage
saying that Childers Gambino's This Is America was, quote,
overrated and over-awarded.
So that was just a little synopsis.
of Donald Glover and Drake's beef.
Why am I saying that?
It's because the collaborative effort
between 21 Savage and Donald Glover
is very interesting to come after a whole entire body of work
from Drake and 21 Savage.
Am I saying it's only happening because of that?
Of course not.
Let me tell you something.
If this comes out the way I think it's going to,
it's going to be a classic.
Now, if you're looking, if you're watching this segment,
and well if you're not
go over to analytic dreams video on spotify
to see the video along with the audio
but basically I'm gonna play you a little snippet
of what you can expect of course with
the sound off because you know I don't want to get
copyrighted uh
yeah I don't want to get copyrighted
but anyways um
as you can tell
this is going to be a big deal
because you can't tell me
a better premise to a movie
than covering when 21 Savage
was exposed to
the world for being from the UK. Now, as an American, I have no idea why the U.S. immigration
officials chose to go after 21 Savage like this. Like, they really made him an example for
no reason. You would have thought this man killed somebody the way that ICE was putting him
on front street as being an immigrant illegally in America. That was really trying to make
an example at 21 Savage who really goes out of his way.
to not basically goes out of his way to mind his own business basically.
Except for that one incident on Clubhouse where he says his people, quote, really be spanking expeditive.
Which I can't say that works as PG podcast.
But I bet the FBI had a field day with that sound bite from Clubhouse.
Anyways, but that's besides the point.
21 Savage, aka Shia Ben Abraham Joseph, I mean straight out of a bit.
straight out of a Bible type name, right?
Abraham is actually from the UK.
So with that being said, he was born in London, moved to Atlanta, Georgia when he was
seven years old, but guess what?
He was arrested and was made an example by U.S. immigration officials, basically, who
say they say the reason why they did that is because he was in the country illegally.
Now, Abraham, this man came from the UK to America and never told us he was born in the UK.
Do y'all know when the world found out that 21 Savage was from the UK, you would have thought we just found our first alien, no pun intended, on planet Earth.
People was acting like this was the biggest scooby-doo mystery that we ever solved in life.
I don't know why it was such a big deal.
hey i'll let you be the judge on why that was such a big deal so anyways donald glover is taking that
whole scenario titling it the american dream and basically is going to portray 21 savage now why is he
portraying 21 savage when there's a plethora of other artists that probably nailed the role even
better um i don't know it's set to be released january 12th as a um film of course and um yeah
the soundtrack is inspired by the film
and one of the tracks is from 21 Savage.
Actually,
the track that's playing on this video right now
that I'm not playing, of course,
for copyright reasons.
But basically,
the cast is Donald Glover,
directed by Donald Glover,
basically he's pulling a rush.
He's directing it, acting in it,
he's doing everything.
So the chronicles of 21 Savage's life,
career, and immigration struggles,
and including his ICE detention
and controversial arrest,
this sounds like
a classic in the making.
You would have thought
I don't know if he still makes movies
and I'm not trying to be disrespectful,
but you would have thought Spike Lee would have came up
with this idea because this is a great premise
to make a whole story that's going to
captivate a certain audience
because I am a part of that certain audience
and I'm going to be glued to my seat
when this film actually releases in January 12th.
So anyways, the trailer features
an unreleased track by 21 Savage,
the trailer I'm currently playing right now.
Obviously, you see the American
dream let me see pull that back up uh see the american dream the 21 savage story right there
uh i don't know if there's going to be a series because i like how they have um the colon after american
dream it's not a colon what is it semi colon i forget what it's called i swear i'm in college but hey i don't
know what that's called i forgot so anyways the reason why i'm pointing that out is because i wonder if he's
going to do more american dream type scenarios for films going forward if this one succeeds i
I think he will.
So with that being said,
um,
music inspired by the film is set to be released the same day.
The film comes out January 12th.
Let me see.
No, no, no.
Okay, the music is dropping January 12th.
I don't know when the American Dream film is dropping.
I'm not sure on that.
But the music inspired by the film is definitely set to be released January 12th.
Basically, January 12th is going to be a big day for music.
And, uh, Ariana Grande is dropping.
the weekend no he's not dropping uh 21 savage is dropping oh little nods ex that's the one
little nods because for some reason ariana fans are like perturbed like like perturbed that uh little nods
x is dropping like straight up irate like they're like why we got to battle with all these artists
when our artists is dropping the whole album this don't make no sense like i don't know why they're so
upset but anyways um what else i can tell you the background of 21 savage
but I'm not going to say y'all don't care
but y'all definitely have to watch the film
because I don't want to spoil it
in case y'all want to go into the film blind
not knowing what's going to happen
because I kind of follow
a lot of 21 Savage's career
so I kind of know what's going to happen
they just got to have the famous scene
in Clubhouse where he says
is people be spanking
you know what it's like as a grown man to get a spanking
21 Savage was really talking that talk
I don't know why but hey he was acting like
the FBI wasn't listening to every word
he was saying on that clubhouse live but hey if they have that in this film it's going to be a
classic if they don't i'm at to reconsider my rankings so anyways uh click my link sure in my bio
let me know one of my social medias what do you think about this inspired music
soundtrack for this film titled american dream for 21 savage coming out january 12th
and what are you most looking forward to also if you are avid or 21 savage fan what do you
mostly want to see in this film.
