Drake Quotes “Not Like Us” on Instagram: ‘Sometimes You Gotta Pop Out’

Drake is no stranger to having lookalikes. However, using bars from “Not Like Us” to comment on their posts on Instagram is a bit new.

Over the weekend, Drake posted a clip of one of his fakes performing “Hotline Bling.” On his Instagram Story, he wrote, “Sometimes you gotta pop out,” a nod to the “Not Like Us” diss track aimed at him.

It’s good to see he takes the beef in stride.
