- A Drake concertgoer "nearly had a heart attack" after being featured on the rapper's Instagram Stories earlier this week.
- A member of Drake's entourage had captured him serenading women outside of an afterparty, he said.
- Drake, who has 141 million Instagram followers, labeled the guys in the hilarious video "dialed in."
A Drake concertgoer said he nearly had a heart attack after discovering he was featured on the rapper's Instagram Stories the morning after the show, hilariously singing on the streets of Washington, DC, with drunken abandon.
The man, who goes by David Erwin on TikTok, recounted the stunning moment of "hangxiety," or having hangover anxiety, as his video has gone viral with nearly a million views since Monday.
In the video, Erwin shows a screen capture of Drake's Instagram Stories from the night prior, as he suddenly appears onscreen singing Zac Brown Band's "As She's Walking Away" with a friend. Erwin puts his head in his hand, wide-eyed and utterly speechless.
Drake, who has 141 million Instagram followers, captioned the video of the guys "Dialed In" – which fans have noted has become his way of paying a compliment.
Commenters were delighted by the unlikely chain of the events. Several said they'd seen the men on Drake's Stories and wanted to know what had happened behind-the-scenes. "Don't be sad, you've won," one commenter wrote. Another said: "Tik tok really came thru cuz I was deff wondering who you were when I saw you on his story."
In a follow-up video shared the next day, Erwin gave viewers the full storytime. After a Drake concert late last month in Washington, DC, he and some friends were outside of the bar where an afterpary was being hosted around 3:00 am. Drake walked out of the venue, Erwin recalled, as did several beautiful, "Drake-level girls."
"Somehow, we decide on Zac Brown Band to serenade them with as they're walking away," he said.
Erwin noted that the video wasn't filmed by Drake, but by a member of his crew who was "cracking up" at the guys and asked if he could take a video. He promptly jumped in a Suburban and drove away, Erwin said, leaving them wondering, "What are the chances Drake sees that video?"
When a friend alerted them the next morning that not only did the rapper see the video — but lampooned it to 141 million people — they were "nearly having heart attacks."
Commenters again cheered the serendipitous turn of events. "This is iconic," one wrote. "This would forever be my fun fact," another added.
Neither Erwin nor Drake's reps responded to Insider's requests for comment.
