\n\tAs Drake\u2019s<\/a> now-enemy LeBron James once said at his memorable opening press conference<\/a> when he joined the Miami Heat in the summer of 2010: \u201cNot one, not two, not three\u2026.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tBut yes, while fans expected one album, Iceman,<\/a> to arrive on Friday (May 15), Drake pulled a rabbit out of his hat and released three LPs as Habibti<\/a> and Maid of Honour<\/a> joined Iceman for a sprawling 43 tracks combined. <\/p>\n

\n\tPrior to the albums\u2019 arrival, Drake hosted episode 4 of his Iceman livestream<\/a> on his YouTube channel, which played out more as a visual album for Iceman lasting about 75 minutes Thursday night (May 14). <\/p>\n

\n\tShot across Toronto, Drake recruited some friends to make cameos, including comedian Shane Gillis, DJ Akademiks and his son, Adonis. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe stream kicks off with Iceman\u2018s introspective opener \u201cMake Them Cry,\u201d which finds Drake wasting no time addressing the scars from 2024\u2019s battle with Kendrick Lamar. <\/a><\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWhat died back in 2024 was a big piece\/ So it\u2019s like this s\u2013t is me, but it isn\u2019t me\/ Y\u2019all keep on asking what it did to me\/ That\u2019s what it did to me,\u201d he raps as an Iceman truck cruises down the highway. <\/p>\n

\n\tLater on in the track, Drake also revealed that his father, Dennis Graham, is currently battling cancer. \u201cMy dad got cancer right now\/ We battling stages\/ Trust me when I say there\u2019s things I\u2019d rather be facing,\u201d he admits. <\/p>\n

\n\tDJ Akademiks enters the picture, hosting a radio show and making all sorts of claims backing up Drake. It\u2019s pretty similar to what you\u2019d hear from him on his own stream, saying Drake takes up all five slots of his top five and so on. <\/p>\n

\n\tAligning with the 6 God paid off for Ak, who starred in the livestream and picked up an iced-out OVO owl chain <\/a>courtesy of Drake. <\/p>\n

\n\tMoving through Iceman, Shane Gillis <\/a>makes an appearance as a police officer with Adonis, Drake is shown as a mob boss with his crew in front of a government building, then walking through the snow, as bloodshed is left in his wake.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe First Lady of Toronto Chromazz <\/a>joins Drizzy as part of the visual album, while Drake also shows off his fleet of exotic cherry red sports cars. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe reunion everyone hoped to see, as Drake and his What a Time to Be Alive running mate, Future<\/a>, put their issues aside to reconcile. They join forces alongside emerging rapper Molly Santana \u2014 or the new Hannah Montana \u2014 for \u201cRan to Atlanta\u201d (a possible nod to Kendrick\u2019s lyrics on \u201cNot Like Us\u201d) and the music video appears on the stream. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cMe and Hendrix back by popular demand,\u201d Drake raps. Military Hummers and strippers using poles surround Drizzy. The clip continues to flicker between neon-blue light and thermal effects and back to normal. <\/p>\n

\n\tDrake throws a party for his OVO crew as \u201cBurning Bridges\u201d plays, which appears to find him jabbing at A$AP Rocky. \u201cYour baby momma ain\u2019t even post a single, damn, where she at,\u201d he raps, before later adding. \u201cYou saw my brother, you was tryna fix it, now you drop your album and you back dissing.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThere\u2019s plenty of smoke to go around on the menacing \u201cMake Them Pay,\u201d which finds Rick Ross<\/a> and DJ Khaled<\/a> in his crosshairs, who Drake addresses by name. He also seemingly calls out J. Cole<\/a> and says \u201cf\u2013k a big three.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cDog, I was aiding Ross with streams before Adin Ross had ever streamed,\u201d Drake fires at Rozay, who has had plenty to say about Drake on his book tour this week. <\/p>\n

\n\tDJ Khaled and Drake also had a falling out dating back to 2024, and Drizzy lands a haymaker, putting Khaled on blast for not speaking up about Palestine. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cAnd Khaled, you know what I mean\/ The beef was fully live, you went halal, and got on your deen\/ And your people are still waitin\u2019 for a Free Palestine\/ But apparently, everything isn\u2019t black and white and red and green,\u201d he spews. <\/p>\n

\n\tPrevious leaks such as \u201cNational Treasures,\u201d sans Pressa and \u201c1 AM in Albany,\u201d which has been renamed to \u201cMake Them Remember,\u201d make the cut on Iceman. 2025\u2019s \u201cWhat Did I Miss?\u201d also stuck around, and the music video finds Drake on the back of an Iceman 18-wheeler transporting blocks of ice, while he rocks a Chrome Hearts trapper hat. <\/p>\n

\n\tNeophyte New York rapper Stunna Sandy gets a look in the stream as part of the \u201cPlot Twist\u201d visual, as she rides in a dune buggy and hangs with Drizzy. <\/p>\n

\n\tA potential bop comes next with \u201c2 Hard 4 Radio,\u201d which would be an ironic title if the track picks up commercial steam and ends up becoming a radio smash. The West Coast-influenced song finds Drake having fun while incorporating Mac Dre bars.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe next scenes head to the top of the CN Tower in the heart of Toronto, a strip club and inside a government building that houses the mayoral office. Drake closes up shop at an ice hockey rink and then flees to the studio. But for his final act, in a possible shot at Kendrick Lamar, Drizzy sets a streaming farm ablaze. <\/p>\n

\n\tWhile all of the aforementioned visuals were pre-taped, the livestream becomes current with fireworks lighting up the Toronto sky and Drake watching on in real time. He shocks the OVO faithful with an announcement that two additional albums are on the way, dropping in an hour at midnight. With 43 tracks and three LPs, a Drizzy summer is on the horizon. <\/p>\n
