Instead of sweating under the harsh social media spotlight, Drake elected to handle the incident with laughter and mockery. Popular streamer Adin Ross shared a voice memo he sent to Drake, which received roaring reactions, including Drake’s response laden with laughing emojis. Humour became Drake’s shield against the viral storm, a tactic that maintained his cool in an otherwise potentially embarrassing scenario.
In a recent concert on Wednesday night at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee, Drake amused the crowd by addressing the alleged viral video circulating about him. Taking the mic, he quipped,
“I know y’all probably waiting on me to address this, so — the rumours are true.”
