Drake's long-awaited More Life playlist took over OVO Sound tonight (Saturday, March 18th), the project Drizzy has been teasing since October 2016. While More Life was immediately praised online, some calling it better last years' Views, Twitter quickly took note of the flute sample on the track "Portland," putting their own hilarious spin on it.
"Portland" features Quavo from Migos and Travi$ Scott and prominently samples a wooden flute over a thumping speaker-destroying bassline. Twitter pointed out the similarities to Future's "Mask Off," and posted Gifs ranging from Squidward from SpongeBob to Link from Legend of Zelda.
Check out some of the funniest reactions below:
