Drake’s New Hairstyle Takes Its Cue From His Lovelorn Lyrics

That Drake wears his heart on his sleeve is part of his appeal. From his emotion-forward lyrics to his storied dating history, the rapper has made a career out of love—whether leading with it, admonishing it, or recovering from it. Now, it seems, said heart has moved to his head. The rapper was spotted last night in West Hollywood sporting a new addition to his faded buzz cut: a small heart etched into the front left of his hair to saccharine effect. 

Calling to mind notebook doodles and amorous correspondence, the subtle delineation was strengthened by its off-kilter placement, its partial imprinting making it seem almost offhand and decidedly cool. Coupled with his now-signature full beard, the heart seemed a surprisingly natural detail, as seamless an accessory as his set of diamond studs. Given the fit, we're hoping that the shape is here to stay—or, at the very least, the first in a parade of playful adornments.
