Drake is being accused of not being able to ‘move on’ from ex-girlfriend Rihanna after he refused to sing their song at a recent concert.
The 37-year-old Grammy winner was recorded by a fan as he addressed an audience while his and the 35-year-old billionaire’s 2016 collaboration Work blared over the speakers.
He said into a microphone, ‘I don’t sing this song anymore. You can sing it for me.’
Drake and Rihanna are rumored to have had an on-off romance that lasted for several years before ending for good sometime in 2016.
The jab is the latest from Drake, who also slighted the Bajan songstress on his October 2023 album For The Dogs.

The concert footage showed the Canadian-raised star dressed in a full white outfit as he stood inside a white box set on the stage.
His dark, curly hair was braided in straight-back cornrows as he fiddled with a black prop.
Fans and critics quickly took to social media app X to weigh in on his behavior, labeling it ‘obsessive’ and ‘weird.’
One user simply stated: ‘He is so weird.’
Another added three clown emoji to the thread, and someone else added: ‘It’s giving “I’m hurt,”‘ with crying laughing emoji.
One analysis noted: ‘He gives desperate towards Rihanna and spiteful towards Nicki. Seems like none of the women on his level want him.’
There was also a reference to his six-year-old son Adonis as a RiRi supporter mused, ‘He really thought Rihanna was going to want to be with him after finding out he was hiding a whole 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 but still pursuing her.’
‘He will never move on,’ someone predicted.

Drake’s refusal to sing Work was also met with some support and empathy.
One X user chimed in, ‘Y’all talk like you would be able to move on from Rihanna,’ with laughing emoji.
Someone else agreed, ‘It’s Rihanna, who would be able to move on from Rihanna,’ while also laughing.
And yet another fan wrote, ‘Honestly, I don’t blame him.’
There was also a fan online who gladly accepted Drake’s invitation for the crowd to sing the song instead of him.
‘*Begins to sing and dance like EVERYBODY’S watching*’ the person wrote, adding, ‘Like cause he ain’t marry her, it’s no longer a bop. #ViveRihanna.’
Last fall Drake appeared to take multiple swipes at Rihanna in lyrics from the song Fear of Heights.
In one line he says: ‘Why they make it sound like I’m still hung up on you? That could never be.’
A Rihanna fan vowed to ‘sing and dance’ the tune ‘like everybody’s watching’
One fan used a meme to describe Drake’s behavior
Someone had no words, but used three crying laughing emoji
One person expressed disbelief, writing, ‘no way’ with a crying laughing face
He added: ‘Gyal can’t ruin me,’ a reference to Rihanna’s Caribbean accent.
As the song went on, he rapped ‘the 𝓈ℯ𝓍 was average with you’ — a callback to her song Sex With Me off the album Anti — and even seemed to take aim at her current relationship with A$AP Rocky.
‘Better him than me, better it’s not me,’ the song goes on to say. ‘Yeah, that man, he still with you. He can’t leave you. Y’all go on vacation, I bet it’s Antilles.’
In May 2018 Rihanna told Vogue: ‘We don’t have a friendship now, but we’re not enemies either.’
Rihanna has not responded publicly to Drake’s musical references.
