Drake to Return to 'SNL' as Host and Musical Guest

Live from New York, it’s the 6 God. Fresh off his Views release, Drake is coming to the Empire State for his latest appearance on “Saturday Night Live.”

On May 14, Drizzy will take over the storied comedy series, pulling double duty as its musical guest and host for the second time in his career.

This is a return to “SNL” for Drizzy, who also pulled double duty during his Drakeover in 2014. That episode featured the T. Dot MC’s impressions of Lil Wayne and Katt Williams, among others.

During his recent OVOSOUND Radio interview, Drizzy seemed to tease this appearance, saying he wants to “go back to acting” and that he had “something nice coming up in May.”

It’s a star-studded month for “SNL,” which will feature a performance from Alicia Keys this weekend. After Drake, “Saturday Night Live” alum Fred Armisen will cap off the season with musical guest Courtney Barnett.
