While numerous fans of the pop icon eagerly responded, fellow artists also chimed in, including Drake.
The 38-year-old rapper commented: “I DM’d but no reply.”
Despite Drake’s public comment, Bieber did not engage with his comment or with other artists who responded, such as Big Sean, Kehlani, Jaden Smith, and country musician Bailey Zimmerman, as reported by people.com.
The comment quickly gained traction on social media, receiving thousands of interactions and 41,900 likes.
