Drake recently released his latest project, Scorpion. The album has done some incredible numbers since its release. The project not only helped Drake hold seven spots on the Billboard Hot 100's top 10 but also became the first album to ever hit a billion streams within a single week. Like most things Drake does, there's usually some sort of internet craze that comes out of it. Scorpion highlight "In My Feelings" sparked the #DoTheShiggy challenge. Most people refer to it as the "In My Feelings" challenge. The dance craze has taken off since the album dropped and nearly two weeks later, it's sparked millions of tweets.

Since comedian Shiggy sparked the #DoTheShiggy challenge to Drake's "In My Feelings," the dance crazed has formed a life of its own. Everyone's been hitting the #InMyFeelings dance and it became so popular, that it has spawned over 2.3 million tweets, Billboard reports. It's not shocking considering that we've seen some of the biggest celebrities like Will Smith, Kevin Hart, Odell Beckham Jr, Ciara and more have shared their renditions of the dance. Even Drake pulled off the dance during a recent concert.

The song is currently sitting at number six on the Billboard Hot 100 but it feels like it could be Drake's next number one single. The song was already chosen as the next single off of Scorpion shortly after the project's release. Based off the amount of people pulling off the dance, maybe we'll see it atop the Hot 100 in the next few weeks, if not sooner.
