Major online backlash is forming against Canadian rapper Drake after a video resurfaced on social media that shows him kissing and fondling a 17-year-old girl at a concert.

In the video posted to Twitter on Jan. 4, Drake invites the girl onstage during a break at a concert.

After kissing her shoulder and hugging her from behind, Drake is heard asking the girl how old she is.

Upon hearing her answer, Drake makes a joke about the situation to cheers from the audience, saying: โ€œI canโ€™t go to jail yet.โ€

โ€œWhy do you look like that?โ€ Drake says in the video, which was first reported by the Daily Beast, a U.S.-based publication. โ€œWell look, I had fun,โ€ the Toronto musician continues. โ€œI donโ€™t know whether I should feel guilty or not, but I had fun. I like the way your breasts feel against my chest. I just want to thank you.โ€

He then appears to kiss her more on the face and lips before she heads back into the audience.

Drake was recently slammed for his โ€˜texting relationshipโ€™ with 14-year-old Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown.
