Drake has found himself facing another wave of online criticism after posting what many fans called a 'weird' and 'uncomfortable' message about singer-songwriter Gracie Abrams. The 38-year-old rapper shared a close-up photo of Abrams' birthmark on his Instagram Stories alongside a similar image of his own, writing: 'I used to hate my birthmark but Gracie got the same one so now it's art.'
The post quickly drew backlash, with social media users accusing him of being 'creepy' and 'corny'. While Drake has previously praised Abrams' music, notably the beat switch in her track I Knew It, I Know You, the pair are not known to be close. Abrams, 25, is currently dating actor Paul Mescal, prompting some fans to question why the rapper continues to publicly comment on her.
