Five billboards have popped up across downtown Toronto promoting Drake’s heavily teased album dropping next Friday, Scorpion. One billboard features a owl about to snatch a scorpion and underneath it, there’s another billboard that reads, “changing from boy to a man.”

According to our records, the next full moon is slated for June 28/29th which is also when Drake announced his new album would be releasing.

This leaves us with some more important questions that need to be answered:
