Drake’s fans woke up to his seemingly indifferent Instagram selfie today, right in the middle of an online storm courtesy of Kendrick Lamar’s surprise album drop.
Drake, the rapper from Toronto, has been the target of relentless trolling, especially as Kendrick Lamar’s unexpected album release intensified the chatter. However, Drake seems to be unaffected as he shares a mirror selfie on his Instagram story.
It wasn’t long before social media was buzzing about Kendrick’s fresh tracks. Fans quickly pointed out their favorite parts and made memes that added to the digital noise. Yet, here was Drake, unbothered, showcasing his style in a leather jacket and new haircut.
Despite this online buzz, which mostly pointed fingers at Drake for losing a lyrical skirmish with Lamar, Drake’s cool demeanor remains unshaken. His 28-year-old self, adorned with a Nike headband, has become the centerpiece of mixed reactions online.
As some fans appreciate his seemingly nonchalant attitude, others continue the jesting. Nevertheless, Drake has plenty on his plate to keep him occupied. Notably, he is collaborating with PartyNextDoor on an album, which is eagerly awaited by fans.
The upcoming album, though without a set release date, builds anticipation as PartyNextDoor wraps up a tour. Adding to this, Drake’s plans include a $500K giveaway on a livestream event with xQc.
Drake’s chilled-out selfie amidst all the social media frenzy paints a picture of someone focused on bigger projects, leaving online banter behind.
