Drake Wasn’t Happy That Game Streamer IShowSpeed Called His Voice ‘Sexy’ On A FaceTime Call

Drake’s usually got a great sense of humor about all the jokes people make about him, but it turns out that even he has a limit.

The Toronto singer has been popping up on gaming streams a bunch lately, cozying up to Gen Z’s version of rap stars. This week, he surprised IShowSpeed, a streamer famous for his viral reactions to games, via a FaceTime call. The two talked about soccer a bit, including whether Drake was a bigger fan of Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi.

However, when things took a turn, Drake was apparently too flustered to continue the conversation.

As Drake told IShowSpeed how much he appreciated him, Speed made things a little too awkward by complimenting Drake’s voice. “You’re doing your thing,” Drake said. “I was talking about you the other day in the car … I’m proud of you, for real.”

Speed complimented him in return, saying, “Bro, your voice is so sexy. How is it so smooth like that? How your voice so smooth like that?” Immediately after that, the call dropped. Whether Drake meant to hang up due to the comment, lost service, or had some other pressing concern, it looks like the streamer felt like he blew his shot.

“He’s not gonna answer the phone again, bro,” he said. “I didn’t mean — I said it wrong, bruh. I meant to say his voice is smooth, but I said it wrong. On God, I said it bad.”

A reminder to the kids out there… sometimes, you just gotta touch grass.

Drake, meanwhile, is $1.4 million richer thanks to some Super Bowl bets he called “psychotic” in the moment.

Drake Hangs Up On YouTuber Who Calls His Voice “Sexy”

Drake hung up on iShowSpeed during a new video, in which the YouTuber compliments him on having a “sexy” voice. The interview was originally conducted as a live stream with around 50,000 viewers. At first, the two kept things to sports, discussing whether Ronaldo or Messi is better.

“Yo, Drake! What’s good, bruh? Oh my God. Yo Drake, what’s up dog? You look great right now. What’s up? Yo, you look good, bruh!” iShowSpeed said. “Damn, this is crazy, bruh. You gotta understand, for me, this is crazy, bruh. Drake, I’m a huge fan of you, bro.” From there, he continued: “Wait, Drake. I’ve always wanted to ask you this question, alright, please. Ronaldo or Messi?” As for Drake’s answer, he went with Ronaldo: “Oh man, that’s a sticky one. Probably for me, probably Ronaldo, to be honest. I know that’s probably not gonna go over well. I know it’s Messi’s moment right now but for me, I’ve always just been a Ronaldo fan. I’m like you.”

“You a Ronaldo fan too, bruh?! Damn, bruh. Fuck, bruh,” iShowSpeed responded. “Aye look, every time I meet everybody, they be like, ‘Yo, Messi better.’ But you, you bro, you are special bruh, you’re a special individual, bro. You are different.” Afterward, Drake showered the YouTuber in praise: “I got a lot of love for you, man. Like I said, I’m proud of you. You’re doing your thing, man. I was talking about you the other day in the car … I’m proud of you, for real.” In response, iShowSpeed remarked, “Bro, your voice is so sexy. Like, how is it so smooth like that? How your voice so smooth like that, bruh?” Drake quickly hung up the phone.

“He’s not gonna answer the phone again, bro,” iShowSpeed said. “I didn’t mean — I said it wrong, bruh. I meant to say his voice is smooth, but I said it wrong. On God, I said it bad.” This isn’t the first time a high-profile celeb has hung up on Speed. MrBeast also bailed on his interview with the YouTuber when he attempted to prank him back in October. Similarly, Speed had an over-the-top reaction to the incident.
