Chance, Khaled & Quavo
DJ Khaled, Justin Bieber, Chance The Rapper, Quavo, and Ashad get animated.

With DJ Khaled's "No Brainer" set to drop imminently, the mogul has premiered the single's cartoonish new artwork, taking to Instagram to share the rendition. Naturally, the artwork centers around himself, Justin Bieber, Chance The Rapper, Quavo, and of course, "HIS SON!!!!!!"

The animated artwork is, for the most part, accurate enough for comfort. Yet the artist's rendition of Asahd Khaled leaves something to be desired; it's hard to discern whether he's an infant or a grown-ass man. Even the lighting seems to cast the youngster's hair with an aged silvery-sheen. Foreshadowing of the wisdom he will one day come to possess? Let's go with that. As for the Khaled patriarch, despite being notably more svelte than his real-world counterpart, it's a faithful rendition to be sure.

The other three have been depicted to perfection, with the artist @mwanel1 going out of his way to emphasize the skinny in Quavo's jeans. It does appear that Justin Bieber is lovingly stroking Chance The Rapper, but what's a little shoulder rub between friends? Perhaps we shouldn't look into it. As for the song itself, "No Brainer" is set to drop this Friday, thus kicking off another DJ Khaled hype-train. If he truly seems intent on revisiting his previous pattern, expect a more melodic cut to follow. 

After all, it's been a minute since we've heard from Rihanna...
