Drake stuns fans with triple album drop

Drake has released three albums in one go

Drake has pulled off one of the wildest moves of his career - dropping three albums at the same time.

The rapper unleashed Iceman, Habibti and Maid of Honour in a surprise triple‑release in the early hours of Friday (15.05.26), each stacked with big‑name features including Future, Sexyy Red, Molly Santana, Loe Shimmy and 21 Savage.

Production comes from heavy hitters like Ovrkast, Riot, Boi‑1da and DJ Frisco954.

On the opening track on Iceman, Drake reveals his father, Dennis Graham, 71, is battling cancer.

He raps on Make Them Cry : “My dad got cancer right now, we battlin' stages. Trust me when I say there's plenty things I'd rather be facing (For real)/And this time, ask me to dig deeper, I'll gladly explain it."

The epic drop follows months of teasing through Drake’s chaotic Iceman livestream series, where he first hinted he’d be releasing “back‑to‑back‑to‑back” albums.

The latest episode premiered several new videos filmed around Toronto, with appearances from Shane Gillis, DJ Akademiks, and even Drake’s son Adonis.

Drake first kicked off this era back in July 2025 when he launched the original Iceman livestream and previewed early tracks like What Did I Miss? Two more episodes followed, spawning the singles Which One with Central Cee and Dog House featuring July Wolf and Yeat.

But the wildest moment came in April.

Drake's team put a huge ice block tower - estimated to be around 15ft high, 20ft long, and 15ft wide - in a car park in downtown Toronto, and he told fans the release date was inside.

He wrote on Instagram: "Release Date Inside. 81 BOND STREET DOWNTOWN TORONTO (sic)"

According to Rolling Stone magazine, some climbed onto the huge block and attempted to gain access to the Iceman release date by using sledgehammers, and one supporter even used a blowtorch.

Several signs near to the structure read: "Danger Do Not Touch. This ice structure may break or collapse without warning, and falling ice or sharp fragments may cause serious injury or death.

"Do not touch or interact with the structure. Any contact with the structure is at your own risk."

The triple release marks Drake’s first solo studio efforts since 2023’s For All the Dogs.
