The resolution to the relationship came too soon, in the form of smashed cheesecake. In the end, the character Drake plays, "Drake, cheater and swine," is left remorseless after a night out. Shout out to Alan Jackson's 1992 country hit "Chattahoochee" tho, apropos of nothing. The weird break before the strip club, where OB OBrien, friend of Drake, plays a dude named the Texas Hammer, really could have hit the cutting room floor it's a lot of mansplaining and unnecessary dialoguing that takes away the agency of these women while utterly failing to be entertaining. We wouldn't want to tarnish Drake's halo completely. Note that this wasn't his idea, his friend calls him and suggests - no, demands it.

That clip was directed by Drake and Anthony Mandler and features a score by Noah “40” Shebib."I'm not someone you should trust, I know," Drake sings in "Childs Play." And that's what his new music video is about.Īround midnight on Saturday evening, Drake dropped his new long-form music video for "Childs Play."

The clip then cuts to famed strip club V Live in Houston where Drake affiliate OB O’Brien aka the Texas Hammer Jr. “Cheers, boo,” she says before getting up and storming out.

My city love me like a college running back Pack a bag you gon' end up staying where I'm at Took you from the hood, and I could never give you back I just wanna let you know that someone love you back All the Cadillac, like I'm Teddy Pendergrass Whippin' on this shit I'm getting ready, where you at Riding She rode it like a Melpomene soldier.
