The OVO store is known for selling all sorts of Drake-themed merchandise and this strap back sport cap is a great addition to the collection. The hat is designed after the cover work for the song featuring a simple rose pink background complete with the words 1-800-HOTLINEBLING repeated over and over. The baseball cap features the same color scheme with the song title embroidered in white several times along the front. Currently the 1-800-HOTLINEBLING cap is sold out on the OVO website which is a testament to the song and artist' popularity.
