Adele Can't Get Enough Of Childish Gambino's Greatness Either: "I Adore You"

Pop star Adele is giving everyone yet another reason why Childish Gambino is sort of a big deal right now. The Grammy-winning superstar went to social media to acknowledge the rapper/actor’s genius.

Last night, Adele reflected on turning 30 and gave Gambino a huge shout-out.

Dirty 30! I’m not sure what I’m going to do for the next 30 years as I’ve been blessed beyond words in my life so far. Thank you to everyone for coming along for the ride the last 11 years with me. My family and friends for entertaining my super fandom of the Titanic movie. Last night was the best night of my life. Here’s a couple pics. I’m absolutely fucked, not sure I’ll make it out the house again! Ps Childish Gambino how the hell do you have time to offer us so much greatness on so many platforms. I adore you x

Despite catching heat for pro-President Donald Trump co-signs, rap star Kanye West has flexed his support for Gambino’s socially-driven “This Is America” video.

Death riding the Pale white horse while he is followed by Hell (represented by police) going totally unnoticed because of dancing and pop culture in the foreground is the single greatest cinematic message I’ve seen in a music video to date. #ThisIsAmerica pic.twitter.com/DYaPjbvoym

What happens when you put creative agency in the hands of artists. 🙌🏿 Powerful narratives, carried by the vehicle of entertainment. Specificity is the universal connective tissue. Big shout to @childishgambino for this one 👊🏿 #ThisIsAmerica pic.twitter.com/u9N6Wb5dzL

I’ve watched #ThisIsAmerica more times in the last 24 hours than any video that’s come out in the last 10 years.

we easily forget about the shootings and tragedies and get distracted by silly dances, memes and viral videos. Powerful. pic.twitter.com/JrLnUAMSFF

People are so caught up in Gambino’s shoot that they don’t even realize what the hell is going on in the background. He’s literally talking about people who don’t care about what’s happening in society, but care about the latest dance fad. He’s talking about y’all.#ThisIsAmerica

If anyone & I mean ANYONE, ever dares speak the nonsense that art and politics should remain separate, just point them to #ThisIsAmerica The depth. The layers. It should be taught. Seriously, there should be a class on that one piece of mastery. I'm mesmerized. Donald Glover.
