Drake And Jimmy Kimmel Debut Their New Twitter Song “Tweet Tweet”

» comments

Hip-hop artist (and former child star) Drake has the #1 album in the country, and was a guest and performer on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night.

But he and Kimmel also debuted their new Twitter-related single, “Tweet Tweet.”

How did the duo end up collaborating? “We have a similar flow,” said Kimmel, introducing the music video. “Is that what you call it?”

The video, which takes place in what looks like a high school, begins with Drake not able to formulate the lyrics to a new song. “Why write a song yourself when celebrities are tweeting so many great things?” asks Kimmel, and so begins “Tweet Tweet.”

It is mainly a collection of actual celebrity tweets (example: Paris Hilton “Goin to the club I need a new dude.”) The chorus: “Follow me, follow me, tweet tweet. Tell me something now. Follow me, follow me, tweet tweet. Tell me nothing now.”
