Drake Gets Caught Off Guard Pouring A Drink, And Becomes A Meme In The Process
By Mustafa GatollariNov. 2 2018, Updated 1:47 p.m. ET
If you're rating hip hop stars on their meme-ability, Drake is definitely at the top. He's what in today's day and age, we consider a quadruple threat; he can sing, he can dance, he can act (Degrassi, anyone?!), and he can behave in a ridiculous way that makes him absolutely conducive to the Internet's ability to turn anything into a mini-phenomenon.
I mean, I can go on and on about his meme-ability. Not even kidding, I can spend hours discussing the wonderful assortment of videos that were created from the Hotline Bling music video alone.
Each and every one of those are tiny pieces of Internet art — and that's only the tip of the Drake-meme iceberg. The artist, NBA devotee, and former teen actor is constantly being featured in all kinds of memes, and he may have just created another one while sitting court-side at a basketball game.
All he was trying to do was pour a drink into a cup without being bothered, but after being put on camera, his reaction suggested that the star was doing a bit of mixing he shouldn't have been doing, or he smuggled in a beverage instead of paying wild fees for a single soda at the concession stand. Which is honestly the most relatable thing any celebrity has ever done — which means he probably has an amazing grasp on this whole Internet thing.

Or maybe he was just messing with everyone watching him. (Which, again, means he's a master at this Internet craft.) Either way, it was a hilarious response and one that became an instant meme.

While others just found his reaction all too relatable.
