Drake Pokes Fun at Joe Budden, Blames Him for His Pouty Selfie Face

Drake recently took to Instagram to humorously blame Joe Budden for his signature pouty face in selfies. The Canadian rapper posted a mirror selfie with the caption: “I’m not aware of my picture or mirror face it’s a curse from birth and I’m influenced by what I see.” Alongside the selfie, Drake shared images of YouTube star Duke Dennis and a young Joe Budden, implying that they influenced his often-mocked pose.

The post sparked reactions from fans and celebrities alike, including Dennis, who commented with laughing emojis, and Drake responded, acknowledging his “mirror face” club membership. Other stars, like Ice Spice and Soulja Boy, also expressed their amusement at the post, while Lil Yachty playfully added that Ken Carson should be included in the group.

Drake and Joe Budden’s history has been filled with jabs and critiques over the years. The former Slaughterhouse rapper recently took shots at Drake, favoring Kendrick Lamar in their ongoing feud. On his podcast, Budden declared Kendrick the clear winner, praising his skill and preparation compared to Drake.
