Overview
- Drake, who released the trio Friday, put out Iceman, Habibti and Maid of Honour with 43 songs and features from 21 Savage, Future and Molly Santana.
- Across multiple tracks he revives his clash with Kendrick Lamar, implying Lamar's streaming counts were padded and naming Universal Music Group in a claim of manipulated totals.
- The opener of Iceman turns inward with lines about his father Dennis Graham's cancer, pressure around the new music, aging and his role in his family.
- Early reviews from outlets like the BBC and The Independent call the 43-song sweep excessive, with some saying the set feels uneven.
- Billboard flags big stakes, noting a No. 1 would give Drake a record 15th chart-topping rap album and that simultaneous top-three debuts would be unprecedented.
