Midway through the five-plus-minute black-and-white visual, Drake, 31, sits at a table on the rooftop of a hotel in London. Clad in a Nike tracksuit and a do-rag, he takes a sip from a cup of tea while surrounded by flowers, ornate statues, floral arrangements and a tower of miniature desserts.

One fan paraphrased Stefanie Drummond’s iconic line in Mean Girls: “I saw Drake sipping tea in the U.K. with his do-rag on so now I’m going to the U.K. to sip tea with my do-rag on.” Another admirer echoed, “Drake in a do-rag at a tea party is a whole mood.”

This is not the first time Drake has become a viral meme. In October 2015, fans went to town with countless GIFs and videos of the MC showing off his suave dance moves in his “Hotline Bling” music video. More recently, fans have been resurfacing one of his tweets from May 2012 that read, “What am I gonna do? Say no?” People have been replying to the old post with hilarious responses such as, “When someone asks if I want to pet their dog,” and “When a website asks if I have read the terms and conditions.”
