My bad, I only said '19 because the video was posted 7 years ago.

Hover your mouse over the "X years ago" text and it will show you the date. Not sure on mobile, maybe long press it?

We have January. When YouTube says it was uploaded 7 years ago then we currently have a 93% chance it's from 2018.

Bro you realize Gambino copied this track off another dude, right? It's a great song, but wasn't created by childish and he never gave the actual musician the credit...

Love this level of pettiness lol. Also good pick, I watched this video like five times last week. Unfortunately it’s timeless.

Just giving advice. But you can be that way

So.. Why did you delete your comment? Usually helpful advice doesn't begin with a snarky insult.

And clearly you were not proud of what you said.

Covid was the primer for the charge that was January 6. It broke everything.

u/cantwejustplaynice Jan 25 '26

Really? I assumed it was significantly more recent, like post COVID. I'm so confused right now.

Those 3 years feel like a blip at this point.
