TLDR: Drake just dropped three albums in one day — Iceman, Habibti, and Maid of Honour — fuelling deep speculation it could be a play to fulfill his Universal deal obligations, though nothing has been officially confirmed. We’ve reached out to the OVO camp to see if we can get verification.
Today, May 15, 2026, Drake released three new projects at once: Iceman, Habibti, and Maid of Honour. While Iceman had been teased for months, the other two arrived with little warning, turning what looked like a standard rollout into a much bigger release.
Iceman stands as the centrepiece. At 18 tracks, it’s the largest and most production-heavy of the three, pulling from a wide network of collaborators. Some of the Canadian producers involved include Noah “40” Shebib, Boi-1da, DRTWRK, MannyManhattan, Maneesh, London Cyr, Nasamadeit, 9Jay, rl, ap.melodies among others.
Additional contributors include Conductor Williams, Tay Keith, Wheezy, Southside, OZ, and FNZ, supported by a long list of other producers. The guest list is more focused by comparison, with appearances from 21 Savage, Future, and Molly Santana spread across the project.
Habibti takes a different approach. At 11 tracks and under 37 minutes, it leans more into slower, R&B-leaning production. The producer list is tighter here, with 40, Ambezza, Foreign Teck, Smash David, and others shaping a more restrained sound. Features from PARTYNEXTDOOR, Sexyy Red, Loe Shimmy, and Qendresa give the project a more intimate, curated feel.
Maid of Honour lands somewhere in between.The 14-track project blends melodic rap with global, rhythm-driven production, leaning heavily into dancehall-inspired sounds. Contributors like OZ, Nico Baran, apmelodies, and Whiskerprince help shape that sound, while the feature list opens up to include Central Cee, Popcaan, Sexyy Red, Iconic Savvy, and Stunna Sandy.
Each project fills its own lane. Iceman carries the weight of expectation, Habibti slows things down, and Maid of Honour stretches into a more global sound. Released together, they feel less like separate albums and more like different sides of the same moment.
