Drake slam dunks in the world of hip-hop, but he took his skills to multiple athletic courts for his new "Laugh Now Cry Later" video featuring Lil Durk.
The clip, which takes place at Nike's World Headquarters in Oregon, sees the two rappers ripping through every sport flawlessly, from basketball and swimming, to jet skiing and football. Drake. and Lil Durk even pose for photos holding basketballs (with Drizzy rocking Lebron James' iconic white suit from his draft night in 2003).
But, hey, even athletes cry sometimes, as Drake begins to shed a tear at the chorus ("Sometimes we laugh, sometimes we cry / But I guess you know now"). Thankfully, Druski2Funny was there to snap some sense out of him.
Watch the "Laugh Now Cry Later" video, featuring cameos from Kevin Durant, Odell Beckham Jr., Marshawn Lynch and more, below.
RZA came up with the ingredients for a new ice cream truck jingle that isn't spoiled with a racist past.
The Wu-Tang Clan mastermind teamed up with Good Humor, the century-old ice cream company that brought us the original ice cream truck, strawberry shortcake bar, chocolate-coated ice cream on a stick and more goodies, for a musical treat with a trap flare to it. The company chose to ring in its centennial anniversary this year with a different sound, one that ensures "ice cream trucks across the country continue to spread joy to everyone for the next 100 years," according to Good Humor's website.
Drake unveiled a mysterious teaser on his social media for, well, something in the early hours of Thursday morning (Aug. 13).
"TMRW MIDNIGHT," the rapper cryptically captioned the cinematic clip on his Instagram, which features himself and a friend riding neon-green jet skis just off the coast of a luxurious mansion.
While no music is featured in the short video -- the steady whir of the water toys is the only soundtrack to the action -- birds can also be heard chirping in the low light, signaling that Drake and his pal may be out for a (very) early morning ride on the waves. Or could they be greeting the sunrise after staying up all night?
The superstar's latest mixtape, Dark Lane Demo Tapes, was released back in May. Featuring viral hit "Toosie Slide" the project debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 behind Kenny Chesney's Here and Now, and gave Drake his twelfth consecutive Top 10 album on the chart.
Dark Lane... album highlight "Pain 1993" also entered the Hot 100 at No. 7 upon the mixtape's release, tying the rapper with Madonna for the most Top 10 hits in Hot 100 history. Just a few weeks later, Drake's aforementioned pair of tracks with DJ Khaled vaulted him past Her Madgesty as the official Hot 100 record-holder with 40 historic Top 10s over his career.
