Texas Rangers may have dropped the ball with this cap design, but Drake? He turned it into yet another viral sensation. Spotting the word “Tetas,” he thought, This is my vibe. And just like that, Drake unleashed a fashion statement that sent the internet into a frenzy. Let’s talk about that headwear.

The Rangers cap, drawing shades from baseball bros to Spanish speakers alike, is causing quite the stir. Yes, it’s the one with the “Tetas.” For those unaware, “Tetas” in Spanish translates to… well, let’s say it’s a slang term for breasts. And our guy Drizzy? He is rocking it like it’s the hottest new streetwear flex.

The Overlap 5950 series sought to artistically overlay team logos with their names. But the Rangers’ design led to an unfortunate mishap where the “T” emblem overlapped the “X” in “TEXAS,” hence forming the controversial word. Although it has been pulled from official retailers, the cap has become a coveted collector’s item, with some eBay listings reaching up to $1,000.

When Drake shared the story on his Instagram handle, fans went truly gaga over it. The post later appeared on Jomboy Media’s X page, and fans haven’t been able to stop taking digs at it. Drake’s decision to wear the Tetas cap is just as predictable as him dropping another heartbreak anthem. Fans weren’t shocked—just amused.

What’s even more amusing is that this isn’t the first time MLB has seen a mishap like this. Just last year, the Oakland Athletics made headlines for a similar fiasco. They inadvertently spelled out “A*s” due to an awkward logo placement, and the design quickly went viral. However, it was swiftly pulled from official retailers following the backlash. Just as the A’s struggled to justify their mistake, the Rangers were left speechless. Their defense was that they hadn’t seen the cap design until it was officially released.

Who knows, maybe Drake also has the A’s controversial hat in his collection? But this moment of him wearing the “Tetas” cap is best described as a “hold my beer” moment—it’s a classic Drake. And baseball fans seem to agree.

What’s your perspective on:

Did Drake just make the Texas Rangers' 'Tetas' cap the most iconic MLB merchandise ever?

Have an interesting take?

Drake became victim of fans’ trolls

While some fans are amused to see Drake in a controversial Texas hat, others mocked him for his occasionally dubious sports affiliations, which allude to the enduring joke that he always backs the most prominent teams or those currently in vogue. “I assumed he would be more a fan of the minor leagues,” one fan said. It’s a nuanced critique of his tendency to shift allegiances based on the prevailing victor—an inclination that earned him the nickname of the “sports curse.” Should the Rangers be worried now?

No internet moment involving Drake is complete without someone bringing up his age. Fans never let the man forget: “Pushing 40 years old, btw,” yet he acts like a college student on spring break. But the rapper proves that age is just a number. His obsession with memes, hip clothes, and constant reinvention always keeps him relevant. 

Though this is pure parody, let’s be honest—it’s spot on. While the cap might have been an accident, who else but Drake would turn it into a trend? “Drake is definitely the demographic they were going for in the end,” joked one fan. Whether intentional or not, Drake-core fashion now defines this “Tetas” cap. The man has built a brand around maintaining the conversation, and with this move? Mission accomplished.

Given the timing, some speculate that this might just be an elaborate troll. After all, the post went viral on April 1st, and if anyone would pull off something like this purely for laughs, it’s Drake. “There’s a greater than 0 percent chance this isn’t an April Fool’s post,” one fan pointed out. At this point, who can say for sure? What’s certain is that the internet devoured it—whether it’s an inside joke, a genuine purchase, or just another example of Drake embracing chaos.

Even before Drake wore it, the hat was already a meme. But his endorsement took it to another level. Fans have been roasting the Rangers for releasing one of the most absurd pieces of MLB merchandise, but now that Drake—Mr. Viral Moment has co-signed it, “Jokes Over,” exclaimed one fan. As the joke has officially come full circle.

It’s like when a major company adopts a fringe online meme—suddenly, it’s no longer just an inside joke; it’s culture. The joke isn’t just on MLB anymore; it’s part of Drake’s endless ability to turn anything into a moment.

MLB may have fumbled, but Drake? He just made the Texas Rangers’ “Tetas” cap legendary.
