Oh Drakey boy. The purveyor of baby-making R&B has no problem topping charts, but has often found himself trending in the unforgiving kingdom of social media for all the wrong reasons. Keeping up the solid theory that he has some kind of infatuation with Arab culture, the Canadian has raised eyebrows amongst Middle Eastern music fans with his latest outing on UK drill artist Headie One’s latest release, ‘Only You Freestyle'.
With Headie
One being one of the top drill artists in England, the track has its merits –
but Drake’s brief foray into Arabic (at around the 40-second mark) will ring in your ears throughout the rest
of the track.
Needless, phlegmy use
of ‘kh’ aside, it’s not a bad effort to be fair to him, but that hasn’t stopped
Twitter users from having some fun… which one of y’all keep teaching drake Arabic??? I just
wanna talk pic.twitter.com/HMo7hrCS1i damn —
