PIC: Some people are upset with Drake after he didn’t give this Irish artist credit for her drawing of him

But she's thrilled

Maybe he’ll… ‘thank her later’, eh?

Dublin-based illustrator and artist Dee McDonnell is making a few ‘Headlines’ of her own after Drake posted her drawing of him to his Instagram earlier on today.

While there’s no disputing that the Toronto rapper is a ‘Legend’, a few commenters are a bit miffed that Drake hasn’t credited the artist.

give her credit.

As far as we can tell, Drake hasn’t said ‘Over My Dead Body’ to these requests yet and hopefully he’ll ‘Take Care’ of them later. For now, Dee McDonnell is clearly over the moon that her stellar work has been given the ultimate stamp of approval by one of music’s biggest names.

Incredibly, the drawing now has over 200,000 <3s on Instagram and that number is steadily rising. Even if Dee doesn’t get a job as a result of all this publicity, at least she can say it was great ‘Practice’.

And we’re out of Drake puns until he brings out Views From The 6.
