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. So obviously, playing into this cheating-guy stereotype, Drake goes to the strip club. Bitches call you fucking Drake."Īnd then comes the cheesecake smash, right into his face. I call you Aubrey, you mom calls you Aubrey. She called you Aubrey, so obviously there's something a little bit more intimate for her to call you Aubrey. "And you know what? She called you Aubrey," Banks says, landing it like a punch. His phone, however, told her a different story. In the three-ish minutes of hell she gives him leading up to the song, it becomes clear that they're at an anniversary dinner (at the world's nicest Cheesecake Factory) they were supposed to have the night before, but that he canceled because he had to work. That girlfriend, played by Tyra Banks, embodies the women he describes in the song: she's wildin', she's super-childish - except her outburst is completely called for. In his mind's eye, he imagines his girlfriend, who is at dinner with him, going through it. " Through their nerdy beginnings, the two both began to collaborate on music and other projects."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 opens with Drake in the bathroom, washing his hands, when he suddenly remembers that he left his phone on the table.


DRAKE CHILDS PLAY ALBUM SERIES
The magazine reports, " met Drake thanks to video gaming, just as the future rap superstar was finishing his run on the television series Degrassi: The Next Generation.

According to Billboard, O'Brien is from Ontario, just like Drake, and the two have been friends for a long time. So instead, let's talk about O'Brien, the guy who rocks a Southern twang and an epic beard in Drake's new video. With Tyra Banks and the Cheesecake Factory, I don't think I need to go to in to detail about how both of those things are amazing. This short film/music video is a perfect representation for a song known for the line, "why you gotta fight with me at Cheesecake/You know I love to go there," and the addition of both Banks and O'Brien make it an absolute must-see for fans. The character is played by OVO contributor OB O'Brien, who runs the strip club where Drake ends up after he and Tyra Banks (yes, really) get into a food fight at the Cheesecake Factory. My personal favorite is the fact that the video answers the question of who is "Texas Hammer", the creepy guy featured in the clip. Drake dropped a video for his songs "Childs Play" from his latest album VIEWS on Saturday night, and it is amazing for a few reasons.
