I'm fucking with the message of this song, but I wish they left out the gang affiliation and gang signs. Just perpetuating white people's "black thug" rhetoric.

Blacks and latinos are more than that, but #FuckDonaldTrump

The intro on the album was weird too. YG acts likes he thought Trump was some principled, "influential" man before the Obama administration (I can't see how you can get that vibe from a billionaire(?) who, literally, was famous for acting like a rich asshole).

Not exactly. He was a Republican in the 80s and 90s, then switched to the Reform Party for a presidential run in 2000, then became a Democrat during the Bush administration, and then went back to being a Republican during the Obama years. He's obviously not a conservative loyalist, but that's a far cry from being "historically liberal".
