Between commercial breaks of last night’s episode of Saturday Night Live, a short clip announced that Drake will be the host and musical guest of the late-night live comedy show on Jan. 18. Drizzy seems to be tapping into his funny bone lately when you consider that he also made an entertaining cameo appearance in Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues.

It’s always interesting seeing people host SNL that you normally wouldn’t directly associate with comedy. Some go on to become fan favorites from various areas of entertainment, like Justin Timberlake, and some are just another host that tried to be funny and didn’t quite make it there. Check out where Drake falls on that spectrum in mid-January.

Check out a tweet from SNL after the jump…
