Drake + The Internet = true love forever.
Nowadays, you only have to wait about 36 seconds after the latest pop culture ephemera drops to be inundated with memes, and Drake’s “Hotline Bling” video is no exception.
Whether it’s because of the shameless, perplexing dance moves, the James Turrell-inspired glowing staircase, or just that turtleneck, “Hotline Bling” is ripe as hell for parody, and the social media sphere didn’t disappoint. A cavalcade of mashups, witticisms, and SpongeBob screencaps quickly filled up everyone’s timelines, and we all got to chortle sarcastically once again at the lameness of Drake, a multimillionaire entertainer who lives the dream every day, before having to turn back to that Excel report we’d been working on.
Just in case you haven’t been spending the last few days feverishly refreshing your timeline, we’ve assembled the very best of the Bling barrage here for your meme-ing pleasure. *To the tune of Cher’s “Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves”* “Mashups, jokes and memes / we’d hear ’em from the people on-liiine”.
“Oh, REALLY, 40!”
When I see those Hot Fine Rings, that can only mean one thing.
And now, the grand prize winner for Best Bling Meme:
