OVO Sound leader Drake is reportedly headed to NBC’s popular “Saturday Night Live” sketch comedy series this month.
The longstanding show announced Drizzy would host and perform in mid-May Wednesday (May 4).
Cash Money boss Birdman boasted about Drizzy’s new Views release this week.
“I think Drake got the album of the year. In 3 hours, he did like 400,000,” Baby said. “He’s something special. Hip-hop has to keep going. We need this.” (Hot 97)
This week, Oklahoma City Thunder superstar Kevin Durant reacted to Drake name-dropping him on Views‘ “Weston Road Flows.”
“It’s a good, nice song. Much more than my name drop but it’s a good song,” Durant said during a media interview. “It kind of surprised me. When your favorite rapper puts your name in a song, it makes you feel like you made it.”
