These are TOO funny...
It's no secret that Drake released an album today. The 25 song set dropped at midnight and it's already Number 1 on iTunes charts in the US, UK and around the world. Not only that but it's already receiving acclaim from both fans and critics alike for its personal content (Drake opens up about his relationship with his son on 'March 14') and its stunning production (In My Feelings and 'Emotionless' are future hit singles).

Naturally, the internet is on fire. Every single phrase and bar on the project is being analysed with the care and attention of a scientist in a lab. People are also just processing the fact that Aubrey Graham has blessed us with a brand new project. We have an entire new LP to soundtrack our summer. And of course fans are also wilding out over the confirmation that Drake actually has a son.
Here we've gathered the best memes that Scorpion has inspired for your viewing pleasure.
Some are shook by how good it is.

Damn.
Others are skeptical about how quick Drake fans are to praise the album.

We are all like this with our faves though. Don't lie!
People were keen to point out how much Drake's lyrical content has developed.

drake 2018: I cannot trust anyone due to my wealth and fame. I don’t think any of my human interaction is genuine. Multiple people could very well be trying to kill me. turn up tho
Facts are facts.
Fans are making jokes about how different Side A and Side B of Scorpion are.

We're still processing some of these Side B lyrics.
A lot of listeners can't get their heads around the confirmation that Drake has a son.
I knew Drake had a kid but I can’t believe Drake really has a kid.

It's a lot to come to terms with.
Saying it doesn't make it any less shocking.
Drake really has a child. I am strangely intrigued by this morsel of celeb gossip. For no good reason. pic.twitter.com/lMMKEkbL5w

Don't worry. We're intrigued too.
The moment when he first mentions his child in 'Emotionless' is a lot.

I mean he literally inspired some of the songs.
A few fans are already picking out favourite lyrics.

The library is open.
A couple are obsessed with the samples.
Drake sampling MARIAH CAREY on Emotionless omfg..... the power that this has, the intelligence that this has, the clearance that this has, the impact that this has, the access that this has, the influence that this has, the international implications that this has pic.twitter.com/aS08h9mVY0

All albums should sample Mariah tbh.
The album description on Apple Music is sending people too.
so it looks like Apple Music let Drake write his own bio for ‘Scorpion’ and let me tell you...AUBREY HAS SNAPPED. pic.twitter.com/Ag3n71PVDC

Drake did not come to play with you hoes.
Then there are those who are in their feels about how much they fancy Drake.

That shout out to British girls though.
And last but not least people are paying their respects to the original Scorpion album.
For once I have to agree with y'all. This #SCORPION album is 🔥🔥🔥🔥 pic.twitter.com/vTA1PrN3aA

We hope that Drake was listening to Eve as inspiration.
