It’s been two years since Kendrick Lamar took down Drake with a series of spectacular disses: a feature on Future’s “Like That,” followed by “Euphoria,” “Meet the Grahams” and the multiple-Grammy-winning “Not Like Us.” Kendrick was already one of the GOATs, but his takedown of Drake was career-defining for Kendrick and career-ending for Drake. Drake has never been the same. And what’s even funnier is that Drake has telegraphed for two years that Kendrick really hit him where it hurts. Drake tried to sue over the disses, he tried to pull various stunts, he tried to do anything but address Kendrick’s accusations and grow as a person and an artist.

Speaking of, Drake has spent months “teasing” his new album, Iceman. Because he’s made of ice, get it? Because Kendrick can’t make the “Iceman” cry. Well, Drake dropped Iceman last night… alongside two other surprise albums. Apparently, the songs are like 90% awful. And the lyrics are all about Drake trying to respond to Kendrick TWO YEARS LATER.

The world was waiting for one Drake album. Along came three.The rapper’s dropped his anticipated solo record, Iceman, plus two more – Habibti and Maid of Honour – with 43 songs in total. They include collaborations with artists including Central Cee, 21 Savage and PARTYNEXTDOOR.

They are the first albums the Canadian has dropped since his beef with US rapper Kendrick Lamar escalated in 2024. And, yes, he does bring it up on the new record.

The big question about the heavily hyped new release was whether Drake would use his new music to reignite his bitter feud with Lamar. He appears to take aim at his rival with some lyrics, accusing him of using his birthplace of Compton, Los Angeles as a backdrop for acts of charity, while escaping to a celebrity life elsewhere.

“Handin’ out turkeys on camera inside of your hood, then you go back to the hills,” he raps on one track.

And on Iceman album opener, Make Them Cry, it looks like Drake has given a glimpse into his feelings at the height of the rap beef.

“Tell us how it felt to meet the grim reaper / This album better have some big features / Well, sorry to burst your bubble, but I’m all alone for my mental [health],” he raps.

Drake also appears to call out other rappers and stars who were seen to take Lamar’s side. On one track, he appears to target LA Lakers basketballer LeBron James, who attended a Lamar gig when the beef was at its peak.

According to ESPN, the song “Make Them Remember” is about LeBron, and Drake says: “I shouldn’t even be shocked to see you in that arena. Because you always made your career for switching teams up. … Please stop asking what’s going on with 23 and me, I’m a real n—a and he’s not.” The “arena” reference was about LeBron coming out for Kendrick’s Juneteenth Pop-Out concert. LeBron didn’t appear on stage with Kendrick, but Bron was there, and he loved every minute of Kendrick’s concert. Billboard had an even more extensive breakdown of all of the people Drake references and cries about on these three albums. He tries to diss J.Cole too, even though Cole was like “I’m out” before the beef really started. Anyway, I’m living for all of the tweets. Drake really thought he was doing something.

Just finished listening to Iceman, currently lost for words man, crying real tears drake bro, this is quite possibly, quite literally, sincerely, the worst possible music I have ever heard. My ears are dripping with blood, currently on my way to the emergency room on May 15th.
