\n\tDruski<\/a> was announced as a season 52 host for Saturday Night Live on Thursday (Oct. 22), and plenty of his hip-hop friends showed him love for the trailblazing feat.<\/p>\n

\n\tAmong those sending Druski congratulatory messages were Drake,<\/a> Travis Scott,<\/a> Quavo,<\/a> Wheezy and Reese LaFlare. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cSo f\u2014king proud,\u201d Drizzy wrote in Druski\u2019s IG comments<\/a> in the post announcing his upcoming hosting gig. Quavo added: \u201cThat boy good!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tFans can expect Travis Scott to be in attendance come Nov. 7 when Druski takes over Rockefeller Center\u2019s Studio 8H in Midtown Manhattan.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cN\u2014A WE MADE IT,\u201d a hyped La Flame wrote. \u201cI WILL BE THERE. !!!? CANT MISS THIS.\u201d Scott also reposted Druski\u2019s hosting gig on his IG Story.<\/a> \u201cWhat ever u doing on the 7th you gotta be tapped in,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

\n\tContinuing his meteoric and unique rise in entertainment, Druski \u2014 who graced one of Billboard\u2019s 2025 covers<\/a> \u2014 will be the first-ever digital content creator to host SNL in the show\u2019s history. The Strokes<\/a> will perform as the musical guest on Nov. 7.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a rare candid interview with The Diary of a CEO in September, Druski opened up about his childhood and journey as an internet comedian, which saw him credit Drake with changing his trajectory after casting him in one of the rapper\u2019s videos in 2020.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe thing that changed my life at the time was Drake calling for the \u2018Laugh Now Cry Later\u2019 music video<\/a>. Everything shifted after that because brands started to take me seriously,\u201d he explained. \u201cNow it\u2019s transactional with everything.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDruski continued: \u201cOnce I was seen with Drake,\u00a0Lil Durk,\u00a0<\/a>we had Marshawn Lynch, Kevin Durant, Odell Beckham Jr. all in this video alongside me. Me being the comedic relief in this video, which was called \u2018Laugh Now, Cry Later,\u2019 this meant a lot more than another music video.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tSeason 52 of SNL is slated to resume on Halloween with Obsession actress Inde Navarrette hosting and Gracie Abrams <\/a>performing. Following Druski\u2019s episode, John Mulaney will play host on Nov. 14 with Phoebe Bridgers <\/a>serving as the musical guest. <\/p>\n
