Drake fans took aim at an upscale California country club after the rapper accused the staff of “racial profiling.”
The 30-year-old “Hotline Bling” rapper took to Instagram on Sunday to blast The Madison Club, a private golf resort in La Quinta.
“The most offensive place I have ever stayed at in my life with staff who pick and choose who they are going to accommodate based on racial profiling #Coachella,” Drake wrote.
And with that, fans of the self-proclaimed 6 God took to social media to criticize the club — and, naturally, they used Drake lyrics and song and album titles to do it.

Drake has a few things on his plate as he wraps up the year, from finishing his highly anticipated R&B mixtape to working on his sophomore album, Take Care.
With all of his success the past 12 months, however, the Toronto star is making sure his music remains relatable to his fans. That's the position he's taking for Take Care, as he explained during an appearance on Shade 45's morning show.
"Take Care is it's own mission," Drake told host Elliott Wilson. "I'm really going back to the So Far Gone where, first of all, as much as the label and people are fighting me, I'm not doing 14 songs, 'cause it doesn't give me enough. I want to do interludes, transitions and different moments. I have an overabundance.
