Have you ever wondered what Drake would look like playing Drake...baby? Well, I haven’t...but that is what I got from his latest hit “Laugh Now Cry Later ft. Lil Durk. Don't be mistaken, the music is alright but it isn’t anything special. And I won’t lie, I actually liked the video - was a little flashy and a little down to earth. Without doing too much thinking or researching about what Drake has been up to lately or the deep meanings in the song, I’ll give you my raw thoughts on the song and video. (...baby)
Drake loves his down-to-earth activities done with money. Wanna play basketball? (...baby) Sure, we can shoot hoops and have our ankles broken by Kevin Durant. Maybe go toss the pig-skin around ? (...baby) Let me get my boy Odell Beckham, Jr to play catch. Wanna get fit like a pro? (...baby) Lets go boxing underwater in what seems like an olympic size pool and run with what looks like a spirometer (checks how well your lungs work) like the pros do for training. Wanna go shopping? (...baby) Sure, lets have insta influencer Aggy Abby shop for a mountain of Nike products. Wanna swing a bat? (...baby) Sounds good, but it’d be better off of Nike’s headquarters in the middle of the night. Did I mention he seemingly had free reign of Nike’s facilities? (...baby) He’s doing everyday stuff we could only dream of, while still seeming to stay regular like the rest of us.
This song and video is saying something, and I’m actively trying NOT to know it right now. Did his music get his message across to an average, 30-something mom who likes to remember her athletic days? I don’t know, but I know he’s been doing some heavy emotional lifting in his life and he seems to have come to a clearing with this. I’m sure he’s not done, but it was important to him to be seen as Drake but also Aubrey. Getting the sh!t knocked out of him by Marshawn Lynch mid-video (pretty funny) makes him reachable unlike other artists. When Drake is crying in his light pink, heart stitched puff jacket and he’s confronted about it, he doesn’t hide. (...baby) Bye toxic masculinity, men can have emotions - and show them too! (...baby) I sometimes laugh at Drake’s songs, but I’m okay with this one because it has a good bounce and seems to be showing personal growth for Drake (and Aubrey) which I always like! Regroup, Drake, and someone better keep some tissues for you...baby!
