Republic RecordsAn internet sensation came full circle Thursday night as Drake dropped his video for “In My Feelings” and it’s just as amazing as you’d expect from the rap star.
Long before the video was released, the #InMyFeelings challenge had become a viral craze, with everyone from Will Smith to a brave young girl fighting cancer in Arkansas doing the same exact dance moves — created weeks ago by comedian Shiggy — to the song,
The moves that fans were doing online, copying Shiggy, weren’t “official,” but now they are. Drake’s taken the craze to heart and incorporated them moves into the new video, and Shiggy’s part of the clip too.
The video features dozens of people doing the dance as Drake wanders through the streets of New Orleans. Of course, Keke is there — played by La La Anthony, no less — as Drake is shown trying to win over his lady love.
The clip is eight minutes in all and plays out more like a mini-movie than a music video. Acting legends like Phylicia Rashad also make appearances, along with a slew of other celebrities.
The video ends with a montage of some of the best #InMyFeelings challenge videos.
