Drake Drops Iceman and Two Extra Albums After Kendrick Feud

On Friday, Drake released three studio albums simultaneously—Iceman, Maid of Honour, and Habibti—at midnight following his Iceman Episode 4 livestream.
Drake promoted the release using a massive ice block structure in Toronto, where streamer Kishka discovered the release date inside the installation and earned a $50,000 payday.
Iceman features 18 tracks with appearances by Future, Molly Santana, and 21 Savage, while Maid of Honour includes 14 songs with guests Central Cee and Popcaan; Habibti contains 11 new songs.
These projects serve as Drake's first studio releases since his 2024 and 2023 clash with Kendrick Lamar; his previous album, For all the Dogs, topped the Billboard 200 with 402,000 equivalent units.
Drake utilized livestreams on YouTube to tease the projects throughout the past year, with the Iceman Episode 4 stream concluding Thursday night and functioning as a full film with visuals for each song.
