Young Thug & Rich Homie Quan Pay Homage To Oprah In 'Color Purple'

Just how many lean or syrup-sipping references can a rapper boast in a song these days!? If the sky's the limit, then Atlanta rappers Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug clearly have NONE, especially in their latest duet 'Color Purple', inspired by none other than Oprah Winfrey and her unforgettable appearance in The Color Purple.

Lyric teaser: "Oprah Winfrey bring me that purple":

Drake turns the wheel when it comes to pushing culture forward, especially in the urban community where if push comes to shove, a body might be found over knocking the 28 year-old Toronto-native's hustle.

Since OVO's "already got Spring 2015 poppin'", as mentioned back on '0 to 100',  it was only fair for Drake to drop the pretty emotional tune that is 'Hotline Bling':

The uncanny metamorphosis of Drake in the 'Energy' video

Dear fans of Drake,

Nothing seems to stall the OVO head honcho's momentum—Drizzy can't even stop himself from venturing outside his body to convert into other forms of human life. As the song goes, he's "got a lot of enemies," ...so (symbolically) morphing into another person should keep the haters off his back for now.

Although known to be a versatile guy, dropping everything from emotional R&B melodies to hard-hitting Hip-Hop anthems, it's something unexpected to see the physical transformations Drake goes through in the visuals to his recent video for 'Energy' from the If You're Reading This It's Too Late mixtape/album.
