The NBA playoffs are about to begin, but that’s not the reason Drake is back.
On Friday, the hip-hop megastar released the video for his new song, “Laugh Now Cry Later,” and it is loaded with comedies from around the sports world.
Warning: NSFW language.
It starts with Drake taking over the Nike headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon. Then he plays one-on-one basketball with Kevin Durant.

Then there’s some football with Cleveland Browns receiver Odell Beckham Jr. and a very uncomfortable baseball swing from a balcony. Then comes Marshawn Lynch to instantly create a meme and add to his litany of epic performances.

There’s some intense running, some swimming and singing underwater, and Drake rides in a boat and shops in the Nike employee store, but the best moment is his tribute to LeBron James’ NBA concept night photo.
