Drake has turned his selfie reputation into a source of humor, delighting fans and haters alike with his latest Instagram post.

On Wednesday night, the rapper, known for his dramatic selfies, returned to Instagram after a brief hiatus to share a series of photos that playfully mock his own image.

The first image features Drake striking a familiar, over-the-top selfie pose in front of a mirror. But the real twist comes with the next two photos: one of gaming YouTuber Duke Dennis and another of rapper-turned-podcaster Joe Budden, both of whom are pictured making similarly exaggerated facial expressions. The photos are a humorous nod to the men Drake jokingly claims have "influenced" his selfie style.

Drake’s caption for the post adds to the fun: "I’m not aware of my picture or mirror face. It’s a curse from birth and I’m influenced by what I see." The inclusion of Dennis and Budden is particularly unexpected, given that Budden and Drake have had a long-running feud.

However, Budden recently praised Drake’s latest music, sparking speculation that this post might signal a thaw in their relationship. Whether it’s a sign of reconciliation or just a playful jab, Drake's post has certainly sparked conversation online.
