Much like hugging his knees in the bathtub and handing out apples to trick-or-treaters, Drake is evidently the type to curate fancy art shows, Page Six reports. Sotheby's Contemporary Art Department has recruited the rapper as a curator for an upcoming show that will "explore the dialogue between music and art."
The exhibit, opening April 12th at Sotheby's S|2 gallery will include works by Jean-Michel Basquiat, Glenn Ligon, Kara Walker, and Kehinde Wiley, each of which will be accompanied by Drake-approved songs that visitors can listen to at—wait for it—Beats by Dre stations. In the meantime, he'll be buying balloons from street vendors and releasing them into the sky.
