Drake’s ICEMAN rollout concludes with the surprise release of three new albums. The biggest name in hip-hop drops 43 new songs across three albums, titled ICEMAN, Habibti, and Maid of Honour. All three are released under OVO Sounds, with an exclusive license to Republic Records, an imprint of Universal Music Group.
Fans had spent months waiting for ICEMAN, a project Drake began teasing as far back as 2024. But during the closing moments of his “Iceman Episode 4” livestream, the Toronto superstar revealed a much bigger plan.
As the stream ended, a message flashed across the screen: “All 3 albums dropping at midnight from the biggest sound.”
Drake Surprises With Three New Albums: ‘ICEMAN,’ ‘Habibti,’ & ‘Maid of Honour’
The surprise release delivered a heavyweight lineup of collaborators. Future, 21 Savage, Sexyy Red, Central Cee, Popcaan and PARTYNEXTDOOR all appear across the trilogy.
Drake used his Iceman livestream series to preview tracks such as “What Did I Miss?,” “Which One” and “Dog House,” steadily building anticipation. In late April, he took the rollout to the streets of Toronto with giant blocks of ice concealing the project’s release date.
With ICEMAN, Maid of Honour and Habibti, Drake turned one of the year’s most anticipated albums into a three-part event. The move reinforces his knack for dominating hip-hop conversations and delivering releases on a blockbuster scale.
