Canadian rapper Drake masterfully clapped back at a troll who made a ghostwriting joke aimed at his four-year-old son, Adonis, on Instagram.

The barb began when the “Certified Lover Boy” rapper–who goes by @champagnepapi–had written on an Instagram post from @lethalshooter about Tee Morant and LaVar Ball.


Drake commented about how fathers "can be elated and competitive and over supportive and it's a right of passage to that OG's talk sh*t."

He added that he would be the same "even if my son is in a rubix cube competition."

In response to Drake's supportive father's comment, a troll wrote:

“Ya son prolly play with ghost writers.”

The ghostwriting comment was in reference to a hip-hop controversy in which Drake had been accused of not creating his own verses.

Drake responded to the troll by writing:

“I just followed your girl cause she’s prob miserable and needs some excitement in her life."

In a subsequent Instagram story post, the rapper did actually track down the troll's wife and proceeded to follow her.

But the drama didn't end there.

Twitter user @Lord_Turner shared screenshots of the interaction by the wife, whose name on Instagram is Toni Bowden.

Bowden was amused by being "followed" by Drake, and she showed proof he started following her on the platform, just as he declared.

She acknowledged Drake in her Instagram story by writing:

“Oh hey @champagnepapi."

The Twitter user also exposed the troll–who appears to be a loving father.

She then wrote, “My husband @ceddybo_ybagnm decides to be a troll and now @champagnepapi thinking I need excitement in my life," followed by laughing and eye emojis.

Drake–who has been known to caution fans in his lyrics about stealing girls away from their boyfriends and husbands–delivered his coup de grâce by skewering the troll by writing to his wife, “I’m here for u ma."

And fans were here for it too.

The dramatic interaction came amidst Variety's announcement the rapper struck a “Lebron-sized" deal with Universal Music Group, which insiders say could potentially be "in the vicinity of $400 million or more."

This week, Drake was announced to appear on Jack Harlow’s new album, Come Home the Kids Miss You, which came out on Friday.

Teacher Stunned After Student Argues That People Shouldn't Have To 'Think Anymore' Thanks To ChatGPT

There's no doubt that ChatGPT and similar tools are growing in relevance and application, and they're growing fast. The problem is that many people, especially younger individuals, seem to struggle with how much they should depend on the tools.

We already knew that ChatGPT could be a problem regarding critical thinking and creativity, so maybe we should have anticipated the mindsets that would develop, snubbing independent thinking when tools like ChatGPT are available.

Disney princesses are usually known for their whimsical singing and befriending creatures from all across the animal kingdom, but Princess Rapunzel at Tokyo DisneySea may have misunderstood the assignment.

Earlier this week, Rapunzel was caught on video at DisneySea in Tokyo, but she didn't go viral for her cheery demeanor or her singing voice, which passers-by can hear from the base of her elegant tower. Rather, it was a pair of intruders who put her in the spotlight.

Bald Men Are Up In Arms Over Viral Chart That Predicts Political Affiliation Based On A Man's Haircut

Can a man's haircut tell you his political affiliation? Scientifically, of course not... but we probably all have a gut feeling about it, regardless!

And a TikToker has followed that lead by developing a chart that predicts a man's political persuasion based on his hair alone—and bald men are NOT happy about it.

Republicans Slammed For Soulless One-Word Response To Democrats' Trans Day Of Visibility Tweet

According to research by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law, transgender people in the United States were over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime based on statistics from 2017-2018. A study by the non-profit Everytown for Gun Safety found the number of trans people murdered in the U.S. nearly doubled between 2017and 2021.

In the last 5–9 years, those figures have only increased as the Republican Party has made trans people the target of many of their political campaigns and legislative actions.

Pete Hegseth Slammed After Calling Off Investigation Into Army Helicopter Fly-By At Kid Rock's House

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized for calling off the U.S. Army's investigation after MAGA musician Kid Rock posted a video of an Army Apache helicopter doing a fly-by at his Nashville home.

The video shows Kid Rock saluting as the aircraft hovers near his property, standing next to a replica Statue of Liberty by his pool. In the brief clip, a helicopter that appears to be an AH-64 Apache—an attack helicopter used by the U.S. Army and National Guard—flies at low altitude near his estate in Whites Creek.
