For anyone wondering that hasn't heard the whole album, especially the songs Outside and Power, it is about a black kid not fitting in with his race and becoming one of the first black kids to go to a summer camp when segregation was still very much a thing. He was harassed and bullied so much that they ended up lynching him. Now when people tells his story, he relives the lynching. You can tell he is a ghost from the past because his clothes are much older than the others and his shorts are from the 60s/70s. The song title Bonfire has two meaning. In the story it is about how people tell his story at this camp over a bonfire like a scary story. In terms of the song, it is just full of fire lyrics, like he's making a bonfire out of how many are in this song. In university I had to write a whole paper about a music video, I chose this one :)
Literally was about to say the same thing, he either A. Don't fuck with Gambino heavy or B. You've heard this song. Thats not hating thats just facts 😅
Minnesota Clan I think it's harder when you're watching the video too, you're trying to take more than one thing in. I think he would have caught most of them if he was just listening to it without the video
@@suss_wizzard7485 He's not speaking facts, a top 10 Gambino song is not underrated. Now any song of Gambinos mixtape royalty would be underrated, since not too many know about it.
This song is so fire. He has the most insane metaphors.".i made the beat then murdered it ...casey Anthony " Casey Anthony made her daughter then killed her and got away with it. (Made me so mad) But you should do feels and geeks at least and his hot 97 freestyle 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The amount of bars in this song is fucking mind boggling. 🔥🔥. Still remember when I 1st hrd this. Almost had a heart attack. Btw the campers telling a horror story and he the main subject of the story who was killed was living it over and over as the campers told it.
holy shit man i still remember the 100k cash giveaway like it was yesterday now you’re about to hit 1mil. congrats man very well deserved your content got me through some rough times and i’ll always appreciate that
Yes that is the concept of the video. The people around the fire are telling a scary story about a camper who was murder(childish gambion) who doesn't know he is dead
I was just on a run listening to childish Gambino when I thought “hey wish that layedbak would do more reactions to childish Gambino” little did I know you already posted one today hahah coincidences like these scare me to thinking real life is all just a simulation 😂
I fuck with you so heavy for this, I legit knew every word at 12 years old. Listen to the whole of "Camp" not even for reactions but for simple pleasure. So fucking good.
swear to god this the only reaction channel i like. all the other ones try so hard to be interesting they just annoying, or they just don’t even react, they just sit in silence but call it a ‘reaction’. you the only dude with good reactions and ain’t annoying as hell. keep doing you
In the story gambino hung himself during a summer camp and is in purgatory and now he has to relive the last few minutes of his life over and over agin while his friends are having fun around a campfire
In The video gambino was hung for hate crimes at a summer camp, he’s a ghost trapped in a perpetual cycle of his last moments in purgatory basically, (why they can’t see or hear him) he tries to save the other campers from the same fate as himself only for it to be a cheesy ass joke
You mentioned you didn't really understand the video so I'll try to interpret as best I can In the beginning of the video Gambino wakes up from being hung. He finds a bonfire with a bunch of campers (wearing the same camp shirts as him). He also notices a man with a knife heading for them. He tries to call out to them but no on can hear him. He trips, finds a knife, and runs and to warn and protect the other campers. No one can hear them because they're too busy telling some kind of scary story. When the man with the knife finally reaches them he only scares them and everyone begins to laugh(The man with the knife also has a noose around his neck and is dressed just like Gambino) Gambino realizes he's dead and has become some kind of ghost story. Once he realizes the world resets and the video begins again. Hope that helped!

This is awesome, thanks for the insight !
@@mateonelson3862 facts
ive absolutely heard the whole album, never once put it together that its a concept album like that. goddamn Gambino is so good
oh shit
What was your major? Sounds like a dope assignment!
theres nooooooo way youve never heard this before its a BANGER
Joe says he fucks with Gambino but doesn’t know this ahaha smh
Literally was about to say the same thing, he either A. Don't fuck with Gambino heavy or B. You've heard this song. Thats not hating thats just facts 😅
@@drumusic5665 I guess he could've heard of him through because the internet
Gambino was not that big until Because the Internet and Awaken my Love came out
freaks and geeks is another fire childish gambino song you should listen to
First Song I ever listened to from Childish. I loooooooooove it
Freaks and geeks is by far my favorite song!!
Freaks and geeks is amazing
Yessss. We need this
DatBoiDahn yo that shit slaps
Fun fact: childish Gambino and Donald Glover are two different people. The government wants us to think that they’re the same person...
Shush man
Different timeline of troy
The Goonchef this is the greatest comment
Donald Glover is childish gambino's real name so they are the same person
@@ozzi_bednz354 ???
Son didn’t even catch the “made the beat and Murderd ... Casey Anthony” line💀💀
I came to comment this lol. Literally the best line in the entire song
React to “Heartbeat” by Childish Gambino. You’re gonna like it
Literally my favorite by him. He totally gotta react to this.
Fire Fly, Sweatpants, 3005
"Rap step-father, yeah you hate me but _you will respect_ "
Layedbaks face: yeah seems right
You should react to Childish Gambino - Sweatpants aswell
Jan Kukrika absofuckinglutely
YESSSSSSSSSS
Prolly heard it
I’m sorry but Bonfire is a must know song if you’re a Gambino fan
I love the toe jam and earl reference. Shit brought me back.
He’s a fake fan of every artist
That’s the song that made most people Gambino fans in the first place
He could be a fan of gambino but hes just rewatching it for views idk
Freaks and geeks is the bomb
"Do my name like Princess Di" went over too many heads
They were telling the story of someone that was murdered and hung at the camp they were at. Gambino is the ghost of the dude who was murdered.
He IS the ghost story
This makes me miss old Gambino so badly. I’m happy he makes whatever he wants... but I’ll always love this older stuff.
So many bars over his head. Woosh!
Minnesota Clan I think it's harder when you're watching the video too, you're trying to take more than one thing in. I think he would have caught most of them if he was just listening to it without the video
I love Gambino so much, and this is easily one of my favourites. The wordplay is ridiculous.
I haven't heard this song in almost 7 years and I remember most of the lyrics. Very underrated song. Infant Childish Gambino here.
React to Freaks and Geeks by Childish Gambino!!
Yuh freaks and geeks
Jose Pagan yes I love this song
Yes
Beat me to the comment
The mix to "All of The Lights" he did was straight FIRE
Sweatpants, 3005, freaks and geeks 🔥🔥🔥
"made the beat then murdered it. Casey Anthony" 😵💫🔥
react to childish gambino ‘freaks and geeks’ and ‘sweatpants IV’
Man I miss the old Gambino. Used to listen to this album nonstop when it came out.
Fax bro
It absolutely doesn't hold up. This is the only song that's still really great.
To each their own, I thought the album was pretty good, still bump it to this day haha
@@abemrofchak I love every track to this day.
Because the internet is much better but to each their own. Kauai is also really good
Heartbeat is a great choice by childish gambino too
Seriously one of the hardest songs of all time
Feels like summer is another great childish gambino song if you haven't heard it.
layedbak, you gotta check out "telegraph ave (Oakland)" and "pop thieves" by Gambino!
Telegraph is underrated
How didn’t you listen to this banger already? An underrated song
@KingKinoh It isn't one of his most popular songs tho
@KingKinoh But then again it doesn't come even close to his more popular songs in views/plays
KingKinoh he’s speaking facts you just dumb af
@@suss_wizzard7485 He's not speaking facts, a top 10 Gambino song is not underrated. Now any song of Gambinos mixtape royalty would be underrated, since not too many know about it.
I’m so happy you reacted to childish. He’s my favourite artist. This was the first song I heard of his and it’s still my favourite til the day
Less goooo, ready know you'll love this one
This song is so fire. He has the most insane metaphors.".i made the beat then murdered it ...casey Anthony "
Casey Anthony made her daughter then killed her and got away with it. (Made me so mad)
But you should do feels and geeks at least and his hot 97 freestyle 🔥🔥🔥🔥
boy I ain't ever clicked on one of your videos so fast
Sweatpants man. You’ll love it and it’ll surprise everyone that you went back in time for a good reaction.
The amount of bars in this song is fucking mind boggling. 🔥🔥. Still remember when I 1st hrd this. Almost had a heart attack. Btw the campers telling a horror story and he the main subject of the story who was killed was living it over and over as the campers told it.
There’s not a bad Gambino song. React to them all 😂
“Made the best then murdered it, kacey Anthony” is the hardest line I’ve heard tbh
The rap step father line got me 😆
How great would an Eminem and Gambino track be? Feel like that'd be such a cool pairing
I'm 2 years late to this comment but I was thinking the same thing just a few days ago!
You’ll like: Heartbeat, 3005, redbone and sober by Gambino
sounds like bandwagon talk
This is the best gambino song hes ever made. And the royalty mixtape from him is my fav album/mixtape from him
had this one in the playlist for a while good to see it's still appreciated. love ya brotha, stay strong.
React to Childish Gambino Freaks and Geeks next
I just listened to Bonfire earlier today. I swear I never understand what TTC and Childish Gambino say but CG is funny
He always comes on these track hype as fuck, like GODDAMN pace yourself
holy shit man i still remember the 100k cash giveaway like it was yesterday now you’re about to hit 1mil. congrats man very well deserved your content got me through some rough times and i’ll always appreciate that
You should listen to freaks and geeks by Gambino
I love everything CG does but I miss this era.
the fact that youve never heard this song and now doing a reaction on it is amazing. awesome. this song is legendary
The Casey Anthony line was the strongest line in the song
React to Because the Internet and 3.15.20 by Gambino man, you’re missing out on his music!
Try doing redbone-childish gambino
Old Childish Gambino is fuckin' wildddd! Some of his best work imo
How you just skate past that Casey Anthony line at the end there 😂
Man you have to react to “bloody valentine” by mgk.
BLOODY VALENTINE BY MACHINE GUN KELLY
i was day dreaming of you reacting to this in the shower yesterday. i’m really shocked wth. more reactions from him please
Weird bro
This song is bar after bar after bar after bar...i could go on forever
React to freaks and geeks by him!
Dawg missed like the three hardest bars in the song🤦🏻♂️😂
Soooo close to 1 mil bro 🙏
Love the way you get excited about dope tracks & beats.
"Made a beat then murdered it, Casey Anthony".... No reaction whatsoever? Yikes! It's one of the better punchlines in the song.
React to New MGK - “Bloody Valentine” it’s his first Rick single off of his new album Tickets To My Downfall coming out this Summer
My favorite song of all time. This and freaks and geeks
Thanks for the videos! I love Gambino's older stuff and I hope you keep checking out more of it!! Maybe "Sober"?
Doesn’t “trash or pass” mean the same thing or am I just trippin lmao
Facts! He should re-phrase it lmao
pass to the vip
Bro react to: Bugsey ft. aitch - strike a pose
This is older but so glad you did it! Definitely need more Childish!
Yes that is the concept of the video. The people around the fire are telling a scary story about a camper who was murder(childish gambion) who doesn't know he is dead
Bro you gotta react to [fears freestyle by f3braury] hes so under rated😭
I had a friend shout this track out years ago and that's the first time I ever heard of Gambino and I've been a fan ever since!
You just getting hip omg, Gambino has a list of classics.
Childish Gambino-Freeks and Geeks. Literally young childish personified in one song. And the video is dope.
“I do my name like Princess Die” (Diana)
Morbid bar but still hard 🥶 🇬🇧
I was just on a run listening to childish Gambino when I thought “hey wish that layedbak would do more reactions to childish Gambino” little did I know you already posted one today hahah coincidences like these scare me to thinking real life is all just a simulation 😂
Took you long enough to get to this song! I’m glad it’s finally here!
I been waiting for this. Fire squad.
I fuck with you so heavy for this, I legit knew every word at 12 years old. Listen to the whole of "Camp" not even for reactions but for simple pleasure. So fucking good.
holy fuck im surprised you aint ever heard this before. This shit is legendary.
I stg u keep randomly reacting to my favorite songs
swear to god this the only reaction channel i like. all the other ones try so hard to be interesting they just annoying, or they just don’t even react, they just sit in silence but call it a ‘reaction’. you the only dude with good reactions and ain’t annoying as hell. keep doing you
Childish Gambino ‘Break all of the lights’ get at it
That's an automatic pass. I love this song
YESSSSS more Childish Gambino!!!!
Doc rich shouted you out yesterday, trying to get you to a milli, said he didn’t even know you but respected the shit out of you. So dope!
You’ve earned a sub after 2 vids, keep it up bro
In the story gambino hung himself during a summer camp and is in purgatory and now he has to relive the last few minutes of his life over and over agin while his friends are having fun around a campfire
Catching up on vids I missed. Love your reactions sm bro ✊🏼 best in the game
Damm me and my older brother used to listen to dis all da time in 2012-13 he died bring back memories
ONE OF THE GREATEST SONG TO SEE LIVE. Invader Zim line always slept on
In The video gambino was hung for hate crimes at a summer camp, he’s a ghost trapped in a perpetual cycle of his last moments in purgatory basically, (why they can’t see or hear him) he tries to save the other campers from the same fate as himself only for it to be a cheesy ass joke
This is what made me love gambino. He needs to go back to rapping like this again💯💯
@LayedBakDFR Start giving two rings to songs like this.
I just listened to this song first time in 11 months and you post this...
You mentioned you didn't really understand the video so I'll try to interpret as best I can
In the beginning of the video Gambino wakes up from being hung. He finds a bonfire with a bunch of campers (wearing the same camp shirts as him). He also notices a man with a knife heading for them.

Hope that helped!
