Drake joined parody rapper Snowd4y for a remix of his “Hey There Delilah” cover, “Wah Gwan Delilah.” Some thought it was AI, the Plain White T’s cringed, and the jokes have been nonstop.

As if he didn’t have enough to deal with amid his beef with Kendrick Lamar , Drake showed up on a remix of parody rapper Snowd4y’s cover of Plain White T’s “Hey There Delilah,” called “Wah Gwan Delilah,” that has everyone … perplexed? Annoyed? Laughing? Let’s walk through this together, it’s a mess. On Monday, a fresh remix of “Wah Gwan Delilah” showed up on Snowd4y’s SoundCloud.

Rap Twitter, as Billboard noted, had a field day “with the main perception being that after losing the battle to Kendrick, Drake is now just losing it in general” and “leaning into his Toronto-ness” for some image repair. Likely, this will have the opposite effect. While Drake Reddit is screaming that it’s satire and if people don’t get it, “the joke is probably on you,” other swaths of the internet remain unable to keep a straight face—or at least a non-cringing one.
