ome listeners are accusing Childish Gambino, also known as Donald Glover, of plagiarism over his provocative hit, "This is America." A Reddit user pointed out the similarities between "This is America" and "American Pharaoh" by Jase Harley, sparking a debate online.
The tracks have a similar sound, and share similar themes in the lyrics.
Glover raps, "This is America / Don't catch you slippin' up / Look at how I'm livin' now / Police be trippin' now," while Harley's lyrics include, "Ah, I'm young and I'm black in America / They stoppin', they frisk us and jail us up / I don't understand what they jealous of / See they crucify us and nail us up."
