Drake has returned with not just one, but three new albums with the releases of Iceman, Habibti and Maid of Honour.
The 39-year-old Toronto rapper spent nearly a year building toward the ICEMAN release with livestreams, frozen owl imagery, and a 25-foot ice sculpture downtown that fans attacked until streamer Kishka uncovered the release date buried inside. ICEMAN is the headliner and his official ninth studio album, stretching across 18 tracks and roughly 68 minutes of moody, aggressive production.
The features stay minimal, with only two guest spots across the whole 18-song run. Future and Molly Santana pop up on “Ran To Atlanta,” and 21 Savage shows back up on “B’s On The Table.”
Maid of Honour runs 14 tracks deep and pulls in a wider collaborator pool. Stunna Sandy shows up on “Outside Tweaking,” Sexyy Red links for “Cheetah Print,” Central Cee jumps on “Which One,” Popcaan rides “Amazing Shape,” and Iconic Savvy closes out the feature list on “True Bestie.”
Habibti is the slimmest of the three at 11 tracks and pushes into smoother, globally flavored production. PARTYNEXTDOOR pulls up on “Fortworth,” Sexyy Red comes back around on “Hurrr Nor Thurrr,” Qendresa lands on “Slap The City,” and Loe Shimmy rides “I’m Spent.” The bulk of the venom on ICEMAN lives in tracks like “Make Them Remember,” “Burning Bridges,” “What Did I Miss?”, and “Make Them Pay,” where Drake keeps prodding the 2024 fallout with Kendrick Lamar. This is Drizzy’s first solo album since 2023’s For All the Dogs and his biggest reset since the K. Dot fallout went global. Drake walked into release day with 90 million monthly Spotify listeners and 61 million daily streams, and Polymarket traders have his first-week haul projected near 520,000 equivalent units.
The next move is a rumoured 2026 world tour, teased with the “coming to a city near you” caption Drake attached to one of his ICEMAN clips.
