There is no indication as to why the YouTuber decided to troll the Canadian artist Drake on a Thursday night, other than maybe the release of new music and Fantano was trying to kill time until midnight.
After a few more trolling posts, Fantano shares this post after Drake reveals the REAL DMs between the two to his Instagram Story.
Drake responds to Anthony Fantano and exposes the REAL DMs he sent Anthony 😳

The trolling seemed to have the adverse effect that Fantano seemed to be going for as Drake fans took to Twitter to express how funny the real DM was and more embarrassing than the one Fantano used to get things started. But Fantano’s supporters felt as though his mission was accomplished since things seemed to bother Drake enough for him to post the real DMs. Here are some Twitter user reactions:
Fantano made a whole youtube video where he interviews a fake Drake and another video where he argues with a Drake fan about Drake’s music. Dude been obsessed with Drake. https://t.co/RsW6NW1nm5

fantano has been publicly hating on drake for 10+ years, calling his music ass, calling him a groomer, etc. Why are ppl calling drake corny for finally sending 3 dm’s 😭😭

Drake getting trolled by Anthony Fantano and somehow responding for some odd reason making the situation worse wasn’t on my 2022 bingo card.

Fantano rates albums on his YouTube channel and that verbage is how he rates them. “Light to decent 6”, “strong 8” etc. He notably doesn’t rate drake albums very high which prompted Drake to use this verbage
