Can't say much for the choreography.
There's a couple hundred articles, videos and blog posts about what exactly the dancing is meant to represent, if that's a rabbit hole you want to go down.
Haven't seen those but doubtlessly overanalysis. Why would the dancing need to represent anything? That is, unless "dancing" is meant to also represent the shooting, the satire factor of which I fear will fly over a lot of heads. Can''t understand hardly any of what he's saying though.
I came across this video recently on a search to find out who Donald Glover was after seeing him in a hilarious SNL sketch. I knew the guy looked familiar but had never heard of the name "Donald Glover". Eventually I figured out where I knew him from --- the low-budget Derrick Comedy:
He was on the sitcom "Community", and now has his own show "Atlanta", also.
He's also going to play young Lando Calrissian in the upcoming young Han Solo movie.
The dance he does at the very beginning of the video is possibly a reference to the "Jump Jim Crow" a song and associated dance from the 1820s that essentially invented the idea of minstrel shows - white performers in blackface.
