“This is America” is the Talk of the World
.
Summary:
Amassing more than 43 million views on YouTube in merely four days, the latest music video of award-winning American artiste Donald Glover (better known by his stage name Childish Gambino) is a biting satire on several controversial issues in his home country, including racism, gun control, and police harassment – as the name of the MV “This is America” suggests.

Language Enhancement:
Satire (n.)(諷刺作品)
這字可理解為廣東話的「惡搞」，是把時弊以幽默的方法描繪出來而達到諷刺效果的文化。常見的用法是 Sth. + be + a biting/savage/stinging satire + on + N.。
e.g. This stand-up comedy is a cruel satire on how children nowadays are suffocated by their monster parents.
e.g. The recent decline in political satire could be a sign that the government is attempting to restrict freedom of speech.
