Canadian rapper Drake is tickling the Internet today with a new look that’s giving classic ‘Dutty Rock’ Sean Paul.

We don’t know where he found the hair, but the Certified Lover Boy rapper, 35, is now sporting Sean Paul-inspired cornrows with faded edges and taking pouty selfies on the ‘Gram.  With the slight tilt of the head, piercing eyes, and pouty lips, Drake unintentionally nailed the Dancehall star’s 2002 Dutty Rock album cover in his two Instagram Story posts yesterday.

The resemblance is uncanny as it is funny and the folks online aren’t holding back on the laughs. Dancehall entertainer Beenie Man was right front and center, sharing laughing face emojis on a photo post made by @theshaderoom.

Others were confused about Drake’s new hair growth. “First of all when tf did he get hair 😂😂🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️,” said one person.

Another added, “How bro hair grow so fast?😂,” and “Is that a lace front?😹,” inquired one other.

Drake’s ‘puckered lips’ was also another unavoidable discussion.

“What’s with the puckerd lips😂😂,” this concerned person asked. Others joined in, “The puckered lips are so unnecessary,” and “Wtf is the lip thing?”

“Same pursed lips and EVERYTHING!! 🤣,” said another in comparing the two men.

The similarities in the photos would further cause people to share their best collaborative titles for the two. From “Dutty Rock Drake 😂😂😂😂,” and “SeanPaulPap,” to “Drake-a-Paul 😂😂,” but best of all “Champagne da Paul.”

While another thought-out-loud, “Hold on 🤔 These 2 on a song might be kinda crazy.”

Drake last shared photos of himself at The Weeknd’s 32nd birthday party in Las Vegas.

Sean Paul’s celebrated Dutty Rock album, which includes two the US No. 1 singles Get Busy and Baby Boy with Beyoncé, along with Gimme the Light, Like Glue and I’m Still in Love with You featuring Sacha, had earned him a Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album and is certified 2X Platinum in the United States and 3X Platinum in the United Kingdom.

Paul released his latest album Live N’ Livin last year February and it’s also up for Best Reggae Album at the upcoming Awards in April.  His follow-up album, Scorcha, will be released sometime this year.

The promotional tour for Scorcha  commenced on March 11 in Florida and will continue through other locations including Massachusetts, New York, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Monterey, California.

He has a new song out right now with Pia Mia called This Is How We Do It.
