Drake dances like me when I'm drunk in that Hotline Bling video.October 20, 2015

Wearing an oversize gray sweater amongst other dad-like apparel on a minimalist set, hip hop's sad boy dances like no one's watching. He does the stanky leg. He does something vaguely resembling bachata. He does a pelvic thrust while wind-milling his arms at a completely different speed.
The takeaway: We need not worry about controlling our body movements any longer. Also, Drake could have saved so much money by hiring this guy.
