If you’re reading this you’re too close mask
“IF YOU’RE READING THIS YOU’RE TOO CLOSE” is a cautionary and charitable riff on the famous release by Toronto superstar, Drake who, unannounced, dropped his mixtape, If You're Reading This It's Too Late, 13 February 2015. It broke Spotify records with over 17.3 million streams in three days and sold over 495,000 copies in the first week. This tongue in cheek mask highlights the surprise of COVID-19 by playing on Drake's title, even imitating the casual lettering on the album cover, while urging social distancing.
