Drake showed this week that he knows how to handle a troll.
Ceddy Bowden of Maryland decided to take a shot at the Canadian rap star in the comments on an Instagram post in which Drake celebrated his son Adonis.
“Ya son prolly play with ghost writers,” Bowden wrote, referring to past accusations that Drake did not write his own verses.
Drake responded: “I just followed your girl cause she’s prob miserable and needs some excitement in her life.”
Bowden’s wife Toni confirmed Drake started following her account and, in an Instagram Story, joked: “My husband @ceddybo_ybagnm decides to be a troll and now @champagnepapi thinking I need excitement in my life.”
Drake DMed Toni: “I’m here for u ma.”
The Bowdens are wisely capitalizing on their viral fame by selling Instagram Story shoutouts for up to $200 U.S. each.
Ceddy is also promoting the sale of a T-shirt emblazoned with “I’m here for you ma - Drizzy” on the front and a slightly altered version of Drake’s OVO owl on the back.
Ceddy is also not worried about Drake stealing his wife.
“Only a n***a that’s very secure in his relationship gonna think this is the funniest s**t in the world," he wrote in an Instagram Story. "Her a** ain't going nowhere."
