Drake seems to not be holding back in his latest album releases.<\/p>\n
On early Friday morning, the Canadian rapper released three studio albums — \u201cIceman,\u201d \u201cHabibti,\u201d and \u201cMaid of Honour.\u201d The release marks his first solo album release since \u201cFor All The Dogs\u201d in 2023.<\/p>\n
Before the album\u2019s release, his song titled \u201cMake Them Remember\u201d was leaked on social media.<\/p>\n
In the song which is on the \u201cIceman\u201d album, Drake seemingly takes a couple of jabs at Los Angeles Lakers<\/a> star LeBron James<\/a> — on two different parts of the track.<\/p>\n \u201cI shouldn\u2019t even be shocked to see you in that arena. Because you always made your career for switching teams up. … Please stop asking what\u2019s going on with 23 and me, I\u2019m a real n—a and he\u2019s not,\u201d Drake rapped.<\/p>\n Drake, 39, and James, 41, have seemingly had tension since the Canadian rapper\u2019s feud with West Coast rapper Kendrick Lamar in 2024. After a nine-track spat between the two, Lamar hosted the concert \u201cThe Pop Out: Ken & Friends\u201d at the Kia Forum in Inglewood on June 19.<\/p>\n James was among many in attendance, along with Sacramento Kings<\/a> guards Russell Westbrook<\/a> and DeMar DeRozan<\/a>, who eventually appeared on stage with Lamar.<\/p>\n In January 2025, a track from Drake entitled \u201cFighting Irish Freestyle,\u201d surfaced, which is a reference to James\u2019 high school and also seemed to be a shot at James and DeRozan for attending Lamar\u2019s Juneteenth concert.<\/p>\n \u201cThe world fell in love with the gimmicks, even my brothers got tickets,\u201d he rapped.<\/p>\n Drake continued to stretch the tension with James in February 2025 when he changed the lyrics to his hit song \u201cNonstop\u201d from his \u201cScorpion\u201d album at a live performance in Perth. He rapped: \u201cHow I go from six to 23 but not LeBron, man.\u201d The lyrics from the original version said: \u201cHow I go from six to 23 like I\u2019m LeBron.\u201d<\/p>\n There hasn\u2019t always been tension between James and Drake, however. In 2018, Drake brought James on stage at a show in Los Angeles while performing his verse on Travis Scott\u2019s \u201cSicko Mode.\u201d He also walked out with LeBron and Bronny James<\/a> for his Los Angeles show of the \u201cIt\u2019s All a Blur Tour\u201d in 2023 after Bronny suffered a cardiac arrest earlier in the year.<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t know if you saw who walked me to the stage tonight, but the gentleman that walked me to the stage tonight is my brother. He goes by the name of LeBron James<\/a>. And in 2009, when nobody believed in anything I had going on, that same guy showed up to a release party for a mixtape called \u2018So Far, So Gone,\u2019\u201d Drake said during the show.The rapper previously had a tattoo of James\u2019 St. Vincent-St. Mary high school jersey on his left arm.<\/p>\n In July, Drake revealed he covered the tattoo with Oklahoma City Thunder<\/a> guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander<\/a>\u2019s No. 2 and \u201cThunder\u201d layered on top.<\/p>\n James commented on the status of his relationship with Drake in September during an appearance on the podcast \u201c360 With Speedy,\u201d but didn\u2019t go into detail.<\/p>\n \u201cAlways wish him the best obviously. … Different places right now, currently. He\u2019s doing his thing, I\u2019m doing mine, but it\u2019s always love for sure,\u201d James said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Drake seems to not be holding back in his latest album releases.
