Drake Mocked After Dissing Serena Williams’ Husband on ‘Middle of the Ocean’
Rapper Drake took a shot at Serena Williams’ husband Alexis Ohanian in his new song “Middle of the Ocean,” but the punchline has clearly backfired. Many fans on social media are mocking Drake for the machismo in this particular lyric – along with the rest of his new album. Meanwhile, Ohanian himself seemed to take the mention in stride.
Drake’s new album is full of references to real-life people, but the dig aimed at Williams and Ohanian may be the most overt. He raps: “Sidebar, Serena, your husband a groupie / He claim we don’t got a problem, but / No, boo, it is like you coming for sushi / We might pop up on him at will like Suzuki.” The mention of sushi may be a reference to the meal Drake and Williams shared in 2015 when they were rumored to have a romance together, long before Ohanian was on the scene.

Even if it is, it doesn’t seem to bother Williams or Ohanian. The two got together in 2016 and married in 2017. They had a daughter in 2017. Ohanian was one of the founders of Reddit, and these days works as an investor while reserving lots of time to spend with his daughter and watch his wife play tennis.
After Drake’s song came out, Ohanian posted a photo of himself and his daughter in the stands watching Serena on the tennis court. He wrote: “The reason I stay winning is because I’m relentless about being the absolute best at whatever I do – including being the best groupie for my wife and daughter.” Williams responded with three smiling heart emojis.
Fans were already angry at Drake, but once Ohanian’s post went up, the exchange went viral. Here’s a look at how the conversation has played out this weekend.

Fans scoffed at the idea that Ohanian is a “groupie” when Drake himself has gone out of his way to spend time with athletes he admires.

Ignorant
Man got a lot of audacity calling someone husband a groupie like he ain’t get on stage and publicly announce his love for a woman who denied dating him. Lol
— BIG KN🦃X not the lil one. (@HardKN0XLife) November 5, 2022
Some felt that Drake was missing the point of an insult like “groupie” entirely. They felt that Ohanian is actually a great example of a supportive spouse, without any of the social climbing hints they felt Drake has exhibited.

— You So Icy 💋💋 (@Lesebaby1) November 4, 2022
As fans were quick to point out, Drake spent plenty of time in the stands at tennis matches when he was allegedly dating Williams.

Connections
Alexis Ohanian liked Megan Thee Stallion’s tweet in response to Drake’s album. Serena is besties with Beyoncé. Megan is signed with roc nation and worked with Beyoncé. Drake you will be dealt with at the next Roc Nation Brunch

Underage Scandals
drake should be less worried about what’s going on with megan and more concerned with going to therapy to figure out why he thought it was appropriate to text millie bobby brown at his big age
— cielo (@cielosplaylist) November 4, 2022
Remember when Drake was texting Millie Bobby Brown and Billie Eilish when they were still minors…Drake been a fucking loser.
— WAKANDA PUNK @ BLACK TRANS LIVES MATTER (@indiedynamo) November 5, 2022
Finally, with Drake back in the headlines, many people brought up the recent stories about him developing friendships with underage performers, including Millie Bobby Brown and Billie Eilish. Some remain suspicious of these correspondences.
