Drake‘s highly anticipated video for $ome $exy $ongs 4 U standout “Nokia” finally dropped earlier this week and it’s been getting some mixed reviews.

One notable person who was underwhelmed by the Toronto rapper’s visuals was popular streamer Kai Cenat, who reviewed the video on his stream recently.


“Music video? Not a banger,” he said before suggesting Drake should’ve let him direct the video. “Let me tell you something, bro. Y’all gotta start letting me direct this sh-t. Everybody clear your mind, look. Drake, I’m telling you right now. ‘Nokia,’ that was a sold music video. Okay, symbolism, but I don’t think that’s a song where you got to do symbolism.”

He then continued by saying that the video should’ve been in an arcade with more colors instead of black and white as he pretended to be on set leading the direction.

“You see, that how it’s gotta be,” he said. “We’re looking for color, we’re looking for arcades, we’re looking for roller skating rinks. That’s what it gave me. We’re looking for going to modern day to as soon as the beat changes, we’re in the ’90s now. You see the vision?”

Adding, “Y’all start from the arcade, there’s cotton candy, there’s girls with their boyfriends on a date. Their boyfriends aren’t winning them prizes, then Drake comes in and wins a prize… Colors, flashes, lights.”

In other “Nokia” news, Drake dropped merch to coincide with the music video’s release and caused some drama with the Joe Budden Podcast because he used an image of Melyssa Ford without her permission.
