Drake’s deep Instagram caption gets overshadowed by ab etching rumors

Drake’s latest Instagram post, intended to deliver a deep philosophical message, quickly became a trending topic — but not for the reasons he may have hoped.

On June 28, the rapper shared a series of images on Instagram, including a shirtless mirror selfie taken at a bar and a video of himself jogging in Bexar County, Texas. While his caption aimed to reflect on ambition and perseverance — “I’m wide awake for the nights that separate the type who get to it til they get it right from the type who just …type” — fans bypassed the sentiment to question the authenticity of his abs.

Social media quickly lit up with speculation, memes, and accusations of “ab etching.” One user on X (formerly Twitter) commented, “Those might be the fakest abs I’ve ever seen.”

Despite the wave of skepticism, some fans defended the rapper’s dedication, linking the post to hints that he may be back in “album mode.” Regardless, the conversation has been dominated by his physique, not his words.

The moment underscores how public image can often eclipse intent — especially for someone as polarizing as Drake.
