Who had three on their bingo card?
ICEMAN, Habibti, and Maid of Honour all dropped simultaneously at midnight. Forty-three songs. DSP only. No warning.
On ICEMAN Drake is taking it personal from track one. "Make Them Cry" opens the album with him revealing his father Dennis Graham is battling cancer. He is not deflecting. He is not performing. He is in it.
The triple drop came with visuals for nearly every track. Plot Twist, National Treasures, Dust, Burning Bridges, Ran To Atlanta with Future and Molly Santana. It is a full project in every sense.
While everyone is in the numbers, we went back to the crate. Room for Improvement. Comeback Season. So Far Gone. The mixtapes that built the man who just shut down streaming platforms at midnight.
The full piece is on the site now, with all three albums embedded.
From the Crate
"Maybe I don't have to be the next Ye or I don't have to be the next Wayne. I could just be the first Drake."
Drake, 2009. Twenty-two years old. So Far Gone just dropped.
One More Thing
Drake did not just drop three albums. He dropped the visuals too. Plot Twist, National Treasures, Dust, Make Them Pay, Little Birdie, Burning Bridges, Make Them Remember, Janice STFU, Slap The City. Nearly every track across ICEMAN, Habibti, and Maid of Honour has a video. All of it is on his YouTube channel now. Clear your afternoon.
