TORONTO -- Live from New York, it's Drake -- again.

The Toronto hip-hop sensation will return as host and musical guest on "Saturday Night Live" on May 14.

Drake previously took on double duty on the long-running sketch comedy series in January 2014.

But the rapper's presence has still been felt on the Big Apple set, with his viral video for "Hotline Bling" spoofed on "SNL" last fall.

The clip featured presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump and Canadian comic legend Martin Short as his alter ego Ed Grimley mimicking Drake's signature moves.

Drake's latest album "Views" is on track to debut at No. 1 on the May 21-dated Billboard 200 chart.
