Drake Gives The People What They Want, Answers “Hotline Bling” Call

It was only a matter of time before Drake answered the world’s call for a second display of ‘Hotline Bling’ stylings , and what better occasion than a sports event dedicated entirely to his good self.

Drizzy was the VIP guest at ‘Drake Night’ in his hometown of Toronto, AKA the Toronto Raptors‘ game against the Cleveland Cavaliers at the Air Canada Centre.

Among the cool shit that Drake got to do on ‘Drake Night’ because he’s Drake:

1) Sit courtside with his chic-as-fuck mum, Sandi, who is all kinds of amazing / gives off serious Grandma Yetta vibez.

2) Announce the starting lineup for the Raptors. 

3) Help unveil Toronto’s new alternate jerseys, which are black and gold in his honour.

There was even a dedicated ‘Hotline Bling’ booth, put up outside the arena for fans to showcase their best Drake moves.

With that much effort put in on his behalf, it would’ve been wrong not to give something back to the people.

So, when the speakers blasted his ~iconic~ banger, Drizzy knew it could only mean one thing.
