"This is why Kendrick owns this manchild" — Internet reacts to Drake hitting the "UwU" in his 38th birthday celebration

Canadian rapper Drake has once again been the center of internet chatter following a viral moment during his 38th birthday celebration in which he playfully hit the "UwU" pose.

On October 24, 2024, after a Canadian rapper's birthday bash, the rapper makes a cute face while an unknown woman records him. Fans and critics flooded social media with reactions, sparking humorous debates, cultural commentary, and comparisons to fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar.

As one user on X humorously noted, the contrast between Kendrick Lamar's and Drake's personalities and artistic styles is stark, playfully suggesting that Drizzy embodies a more "manchild" persona —

"This is why Kendrick owns this manchild," one wrote on X.

However, some users on X suggested that Kendrick Lamar's fans might seize this opportunity to mock or joke about Drizzy's behavior playfully, as the duo had engaged in a beef recently. Others expressed anticipation for content from Lamar himself, hoping for a clip that might add to the ongoing dialogue —

"kendrick stans gonna have a field day with this 😭😭," a netizen on X.

"@kendricklamar bro load another clip," a netizen commented.

"I wanna see yall defend this one 😂," one more wrote.

Some users on X defended Drizzy, suggesting he would prevail in a hypothetical "20 versus 1" against Kendrick, Future, and other artists. Others humorously speculated that his recent weight loss journey might be affecting him.

At the same time, some jokingly remarked that "this guy is not real," emphasizing the surreal nature of his behavior —

"mind you this guy came out on top in a 20v1 against kendrick, future, etc.," a netizen on X.

"this guy is not real 😂😂😂😂," one commented.

"that ozempic and bicurious tendancies are beating his a**," a user wrote.

"Bro why did I have to see this," another commented.

The night ended with fans celebrating Drake's ability to stay connected to his audience, even if it meant indulging in a playful internet meme. However, the Canadian rapper had not yet responded to the comments.
