Abrams has not yet publicly responded to Drake's comments. Reps for Abrams didn't immediately respond to HuffPost's requests for comment.
Drake has sung praises for Abrams in the past.
In an Instagram Story in March, the five-time Grammy winner gushed over the singer's tune 'I Knew It, I Know You' from her second studio album 'The Secret of Us.'
″[goat emoji]'d beat switch on this,' Drake wrote of the song. 'Second half is [pleading face emoji, brain exploding emoji, blue heart emoji].'
Elsewhere on X, one user called Drake a 'stan' for Abrams after his repeated posts about her, while another poked fun at the '6 God' musician for posting about the singer again.

‘A damn good start': Grateful Dead reflect on 60th anniversary at Golden Gate Park
In the wake of a sold-out, three-night run in Golden Gate Park commemorating the Grateful Dead's 60th anniversary, the band's surviving members and collaborators took to social media to reflect on what may have been the group's final bow. 'Night 3 in Golden Gate Park... will be one we'll never forget,' guitarist John Mayer posted on Instagram on Tuesday, Aug. 5. The musician also recalled his first onstage collaboration with Phish's Trey Anastasio. 'The lock we had going was instant,' Mayer wrote. 'Trey's ear-to-fretboard data transfer time is unparalleled.' Mayer, who joined original Grateful Dead members Bob Weir, Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmann in 2015 to form Dead & Company, has long acknowledged the legacy he stepped into. 'I'll never come close to playing like Jerry Garcia,' he acknowledged. 'But if I can somehow get you closer to him... then I suppose I've done my job.' The anniversary shows on Friday-Sunday, Aug. 1–3, coinciding with what would have been Garcia's 83rd birthday. Each night featured entirely different setlists and a rotating cast of guest acts, including Billy Strings, Sturgill Simpson (performing as Johnny Blue Skies) and Anastasio. Though billed as a celebration, the weekend also carried a palpable sense of closure. Drummer Hart called the experience 'truly profound.' 'I saw 60,000 people sparking light, in love, (entertained) big time and coming our way,' he wrote in a post on Wednesday, Aug. 6. 'Different than applause after a song, it sounded more like an ahhhhhh. All the peace and love in proximity generated a collective energy that was shared by all. Very rare stuff indeed.' Hart also shared a surreal vision of lost bandmates, Garcia, Ron 'Pigpen' McKernan and most recently Phil Lesh. 'I saw Jerry and Phil and Pigpen hovering over the crowd smiling like Cheshire cats,' he wrote. 'All the peace and love in proximity generated a collective energy that was shared by all.' Hart continued, 'In the final moments of the weekend standing right next to Bob and feeling the raw emotion coming our way from our fans, I felt Bob's heartbeat, along with mine, and the deep connection we have with all of you. All the years combine. They melt into a dream.' Weir, the band's rhythm guitarist and one of two original members who performed this weekend, was characteristically succinct: '60 years… I'd say that's a damn good start.' Kreutzmann, who stepped away from touring in 2023, offered a message from afar. 'Thank you for celebrating 60 years of not just Grateful Dead music, but also Grateful Dead community, friendships and love,' he wrote Monday, Aug. 4. 'We will survive.' Though Dead & Company concluded its official farewell tour at Oracle Park in 2023, this weekend's homecoming — in the city where the band first took shape — felt like a more fitting epilogue. Tens of thousands of fans packed Golden Gate Park, flooding the surrounding streets in a celebration as much about the music as the enduring spirit it created. 'Happy 60th, Grateful Dead,' Mayer wrote. 'And long may you run.'

Story emerges of Sixers' Allen Iverson losing game of HORSE to rapper
Every basketball fan knows how prolific Allen Iverson was during his prime for the Philadelphia 76ers. The 6-foot guard from Georgetown was phenomenal with the ball in his hands, took home an MVP award, and lifted the Sixers to the finals in 2001. Overall, Iverson averaged 26.7 points, 6.2 assists, and 3.7 rebounds while being the smallest guy on the court more times than not. The man they called "The Answer" backed down from nobody and more often than not came out on top on the basketball court. However, even the greats take their losses. On the latest episode of The Wave's "7pm in Brooklyn", rapper Jermaine Dupri revealed that Iverson lost a game of HORSE against longtime rapper, Nelly: To his (Iverson's) defense, y'all be shooting the ball so high, and my ceiling ain't as high as the stadium. So unfortunately, a couple of times he shot the ball up it hit the Nelly was shooting like my gym was his gym. Iverson will never be able to live that down, but at the same time, losses do happen. One has to give credit to Nelly for coming out on top against one of the game's all-time greats.

Brad Pitt's mother Jane Pitt dies at 84, family mourns her loss
Brad Pitt 's mother, Jane Pitt, has died at the age of 84, the actor's niece, Sydney Pitt, announced this week. According to her obituary, Jane Pitt died on Tuesday, Aug. 5. She is survived by her husband William Alvin "Bill" Pitt and their children, Brad Pitt, Doug Pitt and Julie Neal (née Pitt). In an Instagram post on Wednesday, Sydney Pitt, Doug Pitt's daughter, wrote a touching tribute to her grandmother, celebrating her legacy and the love she gave to others. "My sweet Grammy, Jane Etta, we were not ready for you to go yet but knowing you are finally free to sing, dance, and paint again makes it a tad easier," she wrote in the caption alongside photos of Jane Pitt throughout her life. "If you knew Grammy, you knew she had the biggest heart. She cared deeply for everyone and everything, no questions asked," she continued. "She taught me how to paint, how to be strong, how to lead with kindness, to love Jesus through everything, and to find joy in the smallest things. She made up the silliest games just to make us laugh, and she believed in fairness, in putting others first, and doing good simply because it was the right thing to do." Sydney Pitt also recalled how every year before school, Jane would give each grandchild a "special day," filled with activities like banana splits, board games and rides at Silver Dollar City. "She could keep up with all 14 of us grandkids without missing a beat. There was no limit to the love she gave, and everyone who met her felt it," Sydney Pitt added. "I don't know how we move forward without her. But I know she's still here in every brushstroke, every kind gesture, every hummingbird. She was love in its purest form." "We were truly blessed to have her to love on growing up and I know she lives on through each of us ♥️🪽✨🦜," she concluded the post. Born in Memphis, Tennessee, Jane Pitt was a former elementary school teacher who raised Brad Pitt and her two other children with her husband, Bill Pitt, in Springfield, Missouri. While Jane Pitt and Bill typically avoided the spotlight, they occasionally accompanied their famous son on the red carpet, including at the 2012 Oscars and the 2014 premiere of Angelina Jolie's "Unbroken." Her obituary also highlights Jane Pitt's passion for art and her devoted role as a grandmother. "Jane was a gifted artist who expressed herself most vividly through painting," the obituary read. "Her love for art became a cherished bond between her and her grandchildren during craft sessions and painting lessons that created lasting memories." "Known affectionately as 'Grammy,' Jane found immense joy in celebrating each grandchild's uniqueness through one-on-one traditions lovingly known as 'Your Special Day,'" the note continued. "These treasured moments remain among the fondest memories for all fourteen of her grandchildren."
