Drake found himself at the centre of online chatter after a bizarre encounter with a drone hovering near his penthouse in Sydney, Australia.
The rapper was caught on camera attempting to fend off the intrusive device in an unconventional manner—by hurling an orange Yeezy sandal at it.
In the short clip circulating on social media, Drake initially appears startled as he steps onto his balcony and notices the buzzing drone.
He briefly retreats inside before returning, armed with the designer slide, which he then flings in the general direction of the device.

However, his attempt at neutralizing the airborne intruder fell embarrassingly short, as the drone effortlessly evaded the throw.
The internet wasted no time dissecting the moment, with users on X (formerly Twitter) roasting Drake for what they deemed a feeble and unathletic effort.
Beyond the humour, some fans questioned whether the incident was staged.
Given Drake’s history of elaborate promotional stunts—such as his fake interviews and creative album rollouts—many speculated that the drone spectacle could be linked to his latest project, a joint album with PartyNextDoor.
