Drake drops new song 'Laugh Now Cry Later'; this is now fans reacted

The weekend just couldn't get any better as Canadian rapper Drake is back with yet another foot-tapping music video 'Laugh Now Cry Later'. Dropped in the wee hours of Friday, Drake's newest song is in collaboration with Lil Durk.

In a nutshell, the video gives us a feel of prominent sportswear brand Nike's commercial as it features cameos from superstar endorsers.

Let's take a look at what Drake's athlete studded video brings for its ardent fans!

Filmed at Nike World Headquarters in Beaverton, Ore the athlete studded video shows Drake playing basketball with Kevin Durant and then football with Odell Beckham Jr. He then gets tackled by Marshawn Lynch while trying his hand at various athlete pursuits.

Oh! Wait there's more,  Drake golfs, swings the baseball bat, hits the treadmill and even recreates that famous Muhammad Ali underwater video from back in the day.

OMG! Too much to handle isn't it?

Moving forward, the video shows Drake visiting the Nike company store, a legendary spot nearby where employees and friends of the brand can shop for new goods at discounted prices.

The beat of "Laugh Now Cry Later" is groovy,  brassy and unhurried, a perfect setting for music lovers. Drake raps in his signature style, and all you fans will surely sway by his words. The highlight of the song is Drake's sporty sneakers and the background music that goes while he is singing along with other artists in the music video.
