Drake has taken issue with the Playboi Cartiās filter on Instagram, calling it āracist.ā
The 6 God filmed himself using the filter, which superimposes a white horned hat on a userās face, while partying with friends in a nightclub on Sunday (February 25).

However, Drizzy seemed to believe that the filter only worked when he panned his camera onto lighter-skinned people, including himself.
āCarti, this filterās racist,ā Drake joked in a video posted to his Instagram Stories.

He also wrote in the caption: āUnusually bias Carti filter that detects light skins wtf kind of technology is this?!??ā
Carti has yet to respond to Drakeās comments about the filter.

Playboi Carti has had his own drama in recent days after getting confronted by a fan over the prospect of releasing new music.
A video emerged on social media last week showing a fan getting up close and personal with the rapper in a desperate plea for new music.

āPlease bruh, music, please, please,ā pleaded the male fan as he bumped foreheads with Carti.
The Atlanta native appeared largely unresponsive to the manās pleas as he shook hands with another fan.

Cartiās demeanor in the clip led to accusations that he was on drugs, with one fan commenting: āI know people claim that these rappers donāt do the drugs that they rappers, but heās living proof that heās snorting the lines.ā
Another said: āTake his ass to rehab smh.ā
Carti also recently addressed his bizarre appearance on Adin Rossā livestream where he stayed mostly silent after being given a bag of cash said to contain $2 million.
Appearing via phone on one of Rossā follow-up streams, Carti attempted to explain his brief cameo.
