AceShowbiz - Drake wasn't mad upon learning of an online troll poking fun at his lyricism. The "Certified Lover Boy" artist playfully slammed one social media user who shared a hilarious video in which the person pretended to sing like him.

Titled "Drake be like", the TikTok video saw a man singing, "I know you know that you wanna know that she thinks you know that you're on the phone/ That she thinks you know/ That she wants you to know/ That I want you to know." In the caption, the user wrote, "Am I lying tho?"

The clip did not go unnoticed by Drake. Reposting the footage on his Instagram Story, the four-time Grammy winner penned, "F**k y'all I really be saying some s**t," along with a series of crying laughing emojis."

While Drake was unbothered by the trolling, he was not playing when responding to criticism surrounding his latest album, "Honestly, Nevermind". He said in an audio clip, "It's all good if you don't get it yet. That's what we do. We wait for you to catch up... We're already here though, we caught up already. On to the next."

The Canadian star dropped the surprise album on June 17. The project, which follows his September 2021 album "Certified Lover Boy" and is dedicated to the late fashion designer Virgil Abloh, only has one feature from 21 Savage.

Following the album's release, many social media users offered their two cents. "I thought Drake was finna rap his a** off. He gave us Forever 21, Hot Topic, H&M a** music," one person argued on Twitter, while another quipped, "Drake got my hips swaying like a bad b***h." A third opined, "I can see why this album is named honestly, nevermind, that's exactly what he said when it was done."

Drake managed to prove haters wrong though. "Honestly, Nevermind" stole the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 albums chart, marking the rap star's 11th No. 1 on the chart. It earned 204,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in the week ending June 23, according to Luminate.
