X University in Toronto is launching a course early next year that explores the careers and impact of two of the city’s biggest artistes, Drake and The Weeknd.
Writer and podcaster Dalton Higgins is set to teach the class, titled, “Deconstructing Drake and The Weeknd.”
According to NowToronto, it will be part of a Selected Topics in Media course, which features topics that change annually.
Higgins is a music professor in residence at the Creative School who noted his class is part of a movement injecting hip-hop into academic pedagogy.
