Drake Reacts to Viral “Rich Flex” Memes [Video]

Drake is finally reacting to the viral dancing memes and videos of his lyrics on “Rich Flex” with 21 Savage, and it turns out he’s used to being the butt of the joke.

The Her Loss rapper has always “been able to laugh” at himself regarding his viral lyrics. During a Q&A with online casino Stake, the rapper revealed how he feels about people making of his lyrics, “21 can you do something’ for me? Can you a hit a lil’ rich flex for me?”

“We were out last night at this spot, and this girl was like — it was loud, and she was drunk — but she was like, ‘How does it feel that everyone’s always making fun of you? I wouldn’t be able to take it,'” he said.

“But she was talking about memes because ‘Rich Flex’ was on. You know, the song off Her Loss.” 

“I was just like, you know, I understand after all these years that, I feel like I have a polarizing presence. I’m almost a character in people’s movies and therefore there’s a running a dialogue. There’s jokes, you’re either the villain to some people or hero to some people,” he continued. 

He then added, “It is what it is, it just comes with the territory. As you grow and [achieve] success, you also grow and split opinion and you grow in all different ways.” 

“I’ve always been able to laugh at myself, but I really do feel now that I mentally am able to separate the two. So I just want to stay in that zone, that’s kinda my resolution. I feel really good right now.” 

The videos began trending on TikTok of Drake and 21 Savage reimagined as a couple in dance videos.
