Unlike the [fiery lyrics and video](http://time.com/5267730/childish-gambino-this-is-america-words/ "undefined") for chart-topping song “This Is America,” which featured Gambino and a cast of characters dancing their way through scenes of violence and police brutality, “Feels Like Summer” is a more lighthearted affair on the surface: it’s all animated (with work by artist [Justin Richburg](https://twitter.com/%5FJustinRichburg "undefined")) and sticks to a summertime vibe. But the celebrity cameos, from Michelle Obama to Kanye West to Beyoncé, still pack a punch. And the lyrics aren’t particular optimistic: “Oh, I know you know my pain,” [Gambino sings](https://genius.com/Childish-gambino-feels-like-summer-lyrics "undefined"). ” I’m hopin’ that this world will change / But it just seems the same.” Here’s [every celebrity](https://genius.com/Childish-gambino-feels-like-summer-lyrics "undefined") that pops up in the cryptic cartoon video for “Feels Like Summer.” ## [Donald Glover](http://time.com/5369053/rihanna-donald-glover/ "undefined") as Childish Gambino, ambling down the street  YouTube ## Rappers Lil Pump and Trippie Redd running across the street  YouTube ## Rapper 21 Savage and producer Metro Boomin’ in a car  YouTube ## Rapper Kodak Black in a house  YouTube ## Rap trio [Migos](http://time.com/5268651/migos-met-gala-2018/ "undefined") playing basketball  YouTube ## [Chance the Rapper](http://time.com/5257703/donald-trump-chance-the-rapper-tweets/ "undefined") and Jaden Smith in a cape with rapper Birdman at the grill  YouTube ## Will Smith washing his car  YouTube ## Rapper [Azealia Banks](http://time.com/4653253/rihanna-azealia-banks-donald-trump/ "undefined") appears sitting in a tree  YouTube ## Rappers [Nicki Minaj](http://time.com/5377307/nicki-minaj-bts-idol/ "undefined") and Travis Scott playing with blocks  YouTube ## Artists [The Weeknd](http://time.com/collection-post/5277969/the-weeknd-next-generation-leaders/ "undefined"), Ty Dolla $ign and Frank Ocean playing a game with A$AP Rocky, Solange Knowles, and Willow Smith  YouTube  YouTube ## Rapper Soulja Boy  YouTube ## Rapper Future on bicycle, chased by [Drake](http://time.com/5373577/drake-visits-cancer-patient/ "undefined")  YouTube ## Kid Cudi, alone  YouTube ## [Kanye West](http://time.com/5381915/kanye-west-on-trump-slavery-interview/ "undefined") in tears wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat; [Michelle Obama](http://time.com/5384902/george-bush-michelle-obama-candy-mccain-funeral/ "undefined") giving him a hug  YouTube ## [Beyoncé](http://time.com/5358684/beyonce-toxemia-preeclampsia/ "undefined") wearing a t-shirt referencing Fredo Santana  YouTube ## Tallahassee, Fl. mayor [Andrew Gillum](http://time.com/5381127/andrew-gillum-florida-democratic-primary-governor/ "undefined") sitting on a park bench  YouTube ## Rapper Lil Uzi Vert getting his hair done by [Oprah Winfrey](http://time.com/5303413/oprah-winfrey-national-museum-african-american-history-culture/ "undefined"), and actress Zendaya getting hers braided by actress and comedian [Tiffany Haddish](http://time.com/5372680/tiffany-haddish-steven-tyler-new-best-friends/ "undefined")  YouTube ## Talk show host Charlamagne and Rapper Lil Yachty enjoying some popsicles  YouTube ## Rapper Gucci Mane reclining while [Snoop Dogg](http://time.com/5294040/snoop-dogg-gin-and-juice-guinness-world-record/ "undefined"), Dr. Dre, P.
