Monday night "Back to Back" rapper Drake dropped the much awaited video for his new smash single, "Hotline Bling." However, the colorful visuals weren't the only thing that caught fans' attention, Drake's epic dance moves in "Hotline Bling" video caused Twitter to erupt with hilarious memes.
The video, shot by Director X, features Drake with a bevy of curvaceous beauties dancing around a very simplistic but yet colorful backdrop. The "6 god's" latest visual took us well beyond his comfort zone, and definitely showed fans a different side of him as most fans have never known Drake to be a dancer.
Naturally fans weighed in with their opinions and the consensus--Drake should probably stick to rapping versus dancing. We're sure Drake wasn't too offended as he started off the ripple effect of hilarious memes erected in his honor, that got his his fans talking and racking up views.
Check out 12 of the funniest memes below.

Although his moves proved to provide quite the comedic relief, just last week the rapper took to Instagram with an emotional post obviously moved by the fact that in his quest to try a new sound, the single has spawned several remixes by his peers, and quite possibly landed himself at the top of the pack of the Billboard. He shared, "I spend my life trying to make waves for the city I am from. No accolades really matter to me other than the fact that I have never had a billboard number one. If I get my first number one during the month of October it will be the biggest moment of my career to date (in my mind) and if you are looking for me on that particular evening I will be passed out in the water slide that connects to our pool. I love you and thank you for these memories. I always love the moment right before it happens more than when it actually happens. So thank you...even if it doesn't."
