Drake has playfully offered fans an intimate look into his nighttime regimen, following comments that his music is the perfect companion for a leisurely shopping trip at Target.
On Saturday (January 20), Drizzy took to Instagram where he joined the “tripod bro” trend — popular on social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram — where male content creators bring their followers along for the ride, offering glimpses into their daily routines, errands, and self-care rituals.

He soundtracked the video clip, with “Virginia Beach,” a soothing track from his recent album For All The Dogs, seemingly taking a dig at Yasiin Bey over remarks he made, alleging the Toronto native isn’t Hip Hop.
“@drewwalls10 you tweaking my boi…got me on my bullshit,” he captioned the vlog, tagging influencer Drew Walls who appears to frequently use Drake’s music for his content.
Earlier this month, Yasiin Bey stirred up online discussions following his candid thoughts about Drake’s music.
Featured on The Cutting Room Floor podcast, the rapper, formerly known as Mos Def, was questioned by host Recho Omondi about whether he viewed Drake as Hip Hop, Bey didn’t shy away from expressing his unfiltered opinions.
“Why are you doing this to me,” he said. “Drake is pop to me, in the sense like, if I was in Target in Houston and I heard a Drake song… it feels like a lot of his music is compatible with shopping. Or shopping with an edge in certain instances… It’s likable.”
He continued, adding a little color to his comments: “What happens when this thing collapses,” he said. “What happens when the columns start buckling? Are we not in some early stage of that at this present hour? Are we seeing the collapse of the empire? Buying and selling, where’s the message that I can use? What’s in it for your audience apart from banging the pom-poms?”

In response, Drake took to his Instagram Stories, sharing a video clip featuring a young Method Man explaining the essence of Hip Hop culture.
In his caption, Drake seems to address Bey directly, making a subtle reference to the song “Umi Says” from the MC’s 1999 album, Black On Both Sides.
