Drake's Degrassi past and love for Harry Potter make him a certified nerd, but he's earning some serious cred for something he did at a recent show in Sydney.
During his afterparty set at the Marquee club, the Canadian rapper stopped mid-song to call out a creep in the crowd.
"Stop that shit," he said. "If you don't stop touching girls, I'm going to come out there and fuck you up. I'm not playing with you."
Watch fan-shot footage of the incident below.
The clip has gone viral, garnering plenty of praise from admirers on Twitter.
On the other hand, some have been quick to point out that it might be beneficial for Drake to take that same approach with the company he keeps; his long-time friend and collaborator Baka Not Nice has previously been charged with procuring prostitution and human trafficking, and convicted of assaulting a 22-year-old woman.
Of course, there are also the "it's all a marketing scheme" conspiracy theorists.
See a selection of all those reactions to Drake's onstage good deed below.

We need more men like Drake who will call out trash who objectify, harass and grope women.
