What has Drake said about viral fake abs accusations? 6ix9ine claims the rapper has got body enhancement surgery done

Drake has dismissed claims that he got a BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) amidst allegations by Tekashi 6ix9ine. The latter accused Drizzy and Gunna of using surgery to get abs and lose weight, respectively.

6ix9ine, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, appeared on DJ Akademiks' recent stream, as shared by No Jumper on Instagram on October 15. During the stream, the host asked Hernandez about how he thinks Gunna, whose real name is Sergio Giavanni Kitchens, lost so much weight.

6ix9ine responded:

"I think he got a BBL."

He then asked Akademiks:

"Drake's your favorite rapper right? You know Drake got abs right?"

DJ Akademiks, however, snubbed claims that Drizzy might have gotten surgery to get abs.

Drake, meanwhile, appeared on Bobbi Althoff's Not This Again podcast on September 2 this year. This came just a few months after a picture of him showing his well-defined abs went viral, with many accusing him of cosmetic surgery. When Althoff asked about it, the rapper answered:

"People also say that I got a BBL right? They call me 'BBL Drizzy.' I don't know if my wagon looked crazy when I walked in here, but did it?"

He explained that he did edit the picture, saying:

"I came from the gym, I was sweaty in that pic. Maybe I heightened the saturation or something on it. I think I hit it too hard. They don't look like that."

Metro Boomin had also released a diss track on May 5, 2024, titled BBL Drizzy, accusing the rapper of undergoing cosmetic procedures.

In an interview with XXL Magazine, published on April 15, 2024, Gunna opened up about his life after prison, including weight loss. The rapper was arrested in 2022 with his YSL colleagues, including Young Thug, regarding the racketeering case against the label. However, he took a plea deal and was released back then.

Since being released, Gunna has lost plenty of weight. When asked how he did it, the rapper answered:

"Less eating. Especially when I went to jail. I lost a lot of weight. Just like, cleansing. Detoxing. And when I got home, I started working out and just keeping it fit. And now, I’m on a year straight of all working out."

"Yes. I got a trainer. I work out six days a week. I eat better. I eat clean. And that’s something I’m disciplining myself to do every day. It’s something that I’m liking, though. I feel better when I work out," he added.

Gunna also released his sixth studio album, The Last Wun, on August 8, 2025.

Meanwhile, while he laid the BBL allegations on Gunna, 6ix9ine appeared to defend him in a new diss track against Young Thug titled Fax. It was released on October 14, and in it, 6ix9ine slams Thug for calling Gunna a rat. He points to the snitching allegations against Thug after he mentioned Pewee Roscoe during an interrogation during his time in jail.
