Friendship on Shuffle - As one of the “No New Friends” originators, it’s always interesting when photos of Drake with a new random friend pop up on the ol' social media timeline. Recently, it was his photo with a Canadian country singer that got us thinking that this isn’t the first time a new friend of Drake's left us scratching our collective heads. He’s a world renowned rapper touring the globe during his career peak — and c’mon, he’s Champagne Papi — so making random new friends will never not be an option. Still, these are pretty random. – Jon Reyes(Photo: 247PAPS.TV / Splash News)

The Oprah friend - This does beg the question: What’s more random? A friendship with Oprah or Gayle King, aka Oprah’s best friend? Oprah would be random. Gayle King? Really random.(Photo: Johnny Nunez/WireImage)

The friend in politics - Yeah, the late Rob Ford is pretty random. The former mayor of Toronto left his post after a video of him smoking crack began to circulate in 2014. Is Drake that heavily into the politics of the 6, though?(Photo: Andrew Francis Wallace/Toronto Star via Getty Images)

The neo-soul friend - Fine, Maxwell is actually not that random since they both make pretty emotional music. But considering the singer went on his break before Drake became the biggest rap star does makes it pretty random.(Photo: James Devaney/WireImage)

The affectionate friend - A friendship with Chilli and her son — also the son of record maker Dallas Austin — is pretty random. But the fact that Drake is hanging on to her pretty tight in this pic isn't.(Photo: Tron Austin via Instagram)
