   No, it’s not actually about ghost. It’s basically saying that rappers nowadays are fake. The storyteller in the song is telling a fake simple story but all the girls are interested because it’s popular. Childish Gambino (Donald Glover) is an actually ghost but the girls are paying too much attention to the story teller to see/hear him. ( in other words popular rappers that are fake and make bad music always get more money and fame then the ones who make real music.)

   He can't remember how he died so its a never ending cycle of him trying to understand what happened to him.

   This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway
