Big Sean is the latest person to poke fun at Drake's selfie pose. On August 29, 2024, the Detroit rapper posted a video on social media, mimicking the 6 God's pout-lipped selfie face and calling it his "Drake face."

Many have often mocked the same pose, leading to several meme-worthy moments on social media.

Big Sean's imitation of Drizzy's selfie face left social media in stitches, with one person tweeting:

Others joined in, with one person saying it was the rapper's right to steal the Canadian rapper's selfie pose.

"Literally here for whatever Big Sean does," one person tweeted.
"Drake stole his flow so it’s only right to steal some goofy shxt from him back," another person added.
"He wanna start a rap beef with everybody," another netizen said.

Others added that there was no bad blood between the two rappers, while some drew comparisons between the two.

"Big Sean and Drake are cool yall calm down," one person said.
"That's a bold move, gotta love the bromance vibes," another person added.
"The difference is Drake posing face look cute compare to Big Sean recreation," someone else added.
"Big Sean is better lyrically but yall ain’t ready for that conversation," another user noted.

The Canadian rapper also made fun of his selfie face in a recent Instagram post. On August 29, 2024, he posted a series of selfies on his social media account, citing YouTuber Duke Dennis and podcaster Joe Budden as his inspirations behind the pose.


Big Sean reportedly dissed Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and J. Cole in March

March to May saw diss tracks flood the rap industry, and rapper Big Sean had a small part to play in it. In a freestyle verse released in March 2024, the Detroit rapper reportedly called out the "big three" in the hip-hop industry, thought to be Drake, J. Cole, and Kendrick Lamar.

"I think where I lack most as an artist is consistency/I just haven’t had the energy to compete with enemies/ Or y’all so-called bigger three/But every verse I lay, fans love to say, 'Man, n***as is sleep!'" Big Sean rapped.

While it is not directly mentioned, many believe the verse was a subliminal shot at the three rappers, in light of J. Cole's verse in Drizzy's track First Person Shooter. In the song, the rapper dubbed them as the "big three."

This line was further refuted by Kendrick Lamar in his verse in Future and Metro Boomin's Like That, which was released two days after Big Sean's freestyle verse. In the track, Lamar directly confronted Drizzy and J. Cole.

"F**k sneak dissin', first-person shooter, I hope they came with three switches/ I crash out like, "F**k rap," diss Melle Mel if I had to/ Got 2TEEZ with me, I'm snatchin' chains and burnin' tattoos, it's up/ Lost too many soldiers not to play it safe/ If he walk around with that stick, it ain't André 3K/ Think I won't drop the location? I still got PTSD/ Mot******k the big three, n***a, it's just big me," he rapped.

What followed was a back-and-forth diss battle between the Canadian rapper and Lamar, in which the public indubitably crowned the latter as the winner after his hit song Not Like Us took over the music industry.
