00:00Earlier this week, Drake dropped his highly anticipated video for Hotline Bling.
00:06Since the video's released, social media has been all abuzz about Drizzy's eccentric dance moves, if that's what you want to call them.
00:11Let's not forget to mention the countless memes that have been everywhere.
00:14It's even re-sparked the conversation of Drake's Hotline Bling track having a similar sound to rapper D-R-A-M, or Dram's Cha Cha track.
00:22So, among several tweets regarding Drake's Hotline Bling, Dram tweeted,
00:25Dram tweeted, Yeah, I feel like I got jacked for my record, but I'm good.
00:29Drake had already been addressed, excuse me, addressed Beatgate.
00:32I don't even know if I like that name.
00:34In an interview we did with The Fader Magazine, he said,
00:36You know, like in Jamaica, you'll have a rhythm and it's like everyone has to do a song on that.
00:40Imagine that in rap or imagine that in R&B.
00:43Imagine if we got one beat and every single person, including myself, this guy, this guy, all these guys had to do a song on that one beat.
00:49I think that's a poor explanation, but I want to know what you guys think.
00:53Do you think it is a slay or a shay? Hotline Bling.
00:57One, two, three. Oh, slay.
00:59Slay.
01:00Slay.
01:01Well, Sharia put it in the air, so let's talk about it.
01:03Why is it a slay?
01:04Strictly for the video.
01:05I mean, the song, I don't really care about all that, but the video is everything.
01:08If we get to be carefree black girls, then I love me a carefree black Drake.
01:13He is everything. I love the memes. I love it all.
01:16Even though he had to do choreography classes for that five, six, seven, eight, and all of it.
01:19I mean, my favorite is when they put the tennis racket in his hand, and he was good.
01:22Yeah, the memes are good.
01:23I was like, Serena's taught him speed.
01:24The memes are good. We'll talk about that.
01:26And also slay to the girls who got that easy check, because usually the girl in the video has to do all the dancing.
01:31She has to.
01:32And she just gets to sit on the steps, and here's Drake. So, slay.
01:35She called a union.
01:37Kaz, what do you think?
01:38Well, I mean, we credit Drake with a lot of things.
01:40Like, one of them is making, like, black people very vulnerable and, like, emotional in their raps.
01:45And now we can kind of credit him with, like, showing that not all black people can dance.
01:48Yes.
01:49And that's awesome.
01:50Yes.
01:51I think that's great.
01:52You're not right.
01:53Shane.
01:54Shane.
01:55That was Shane.
01:56I'm a tall, goofy black man, just like Drake is a tall, goofy black man.
01:59And as long as you own it, that you can't dance.
02:01Do you want to dance now?
02:02I've seen you at Henny Palooza. You are not goofy.
02:04I have seen you in the streets.
02:05Listen, you see the feet.
02:06You see the bachata.
02:07It's not, you know, it's not a game.
02:08It's not a game.
02:09You got this?
02:10So, Drake got that.
02:11As far as the video goes, Drake got it.
02:13You got it?
02:14But as far as, like, the whole, you know, controversy with the song, like, he's, like,
02:17just the prettiest girl at the ball right now.
02:19He can't really do anything wrong.
02:20Yes.
02:21Like, it's like, yeah, I stole the song.
02:23Just like regular people steal songs.
02:24And that's fine.
02:25Everyone's like, you know what, Drake?
02:26Alright, cool.
02:27Like, nobody's really...
02:28Your analogies.
02:29If it was anybody else or any other song in hip-hop, they would run them out of here.
02:34They would call them crazy.
02:35That's a good point.
02:36Like, oh, you're a rip-off.
02:37But Drake is, he can't do no wrong right now.
02:38He can't.
02:39So, he's just like, okay, yeah, he stole the song.
02:40I'm still gonna jam to it.
02:41It's like...
02:42Turn it up.
02:43Okay, you're gonna do one of these.
02:44Abiola, what are your thoughts?
02:45Dana!
02:46Yes!
02:47I say slayed for the exact reason you did.
02:49I am all for it.
02:50Yes, my awkward black people, this is our moment!
02:53This is our job!
02:54As a little, as a little black girl who was told she had one dance move.
02:59And I wouldn't know it twerk if it came across me.
03:02Can you do the body roll pop-up?
03:04I'll play with that.
03:05Can you at least...
03:06I mean, I'm Caribbean, so I could do a dollar wine.
03:08But, you know, that's all you need.
03:10That's all you need.
03:11I could do a dollar wine.
03:12That's all you need, girl.
03:13And that's my one move!
03:15And I say, awkward black people, this is our time.
03:18I love it!
03:19I love it!
03:20And then the empowerment coach in me says, dance like no one's watching.
03:24You better dance!
03:25You better get your one move on!
03:26Yes!
03:27I'm so mad at you, yet so happy at the same time right now.
03:29She's at a dollar wine like nobody's watching.
03:31Are y'all having a dollar wine?
03:32Can I come?
03:33We're all here.
03:34I'm weak.
03:35No, no, no.
03:36I don't condone any of them.
03:37I can go moving on because y'all are out of control.
