Drake is currently fresh off the release of his surprise new single “What Did I Miss,” which brought with it a tease that Iceman, presumably the title to a new album, was “coming soon.” The album, though potentially arriving just months after his and PARTYNEXTDOOR’s $ome $exy $ongs 4 U, will mark Drake’s first solo full-length since 2003’s For All the Dogs.
While not much is known about the project as of this writing, keep reading for more on what’s been revealed so far.
When is Drake releasing his new album Iceman?
Expectedly, fans haven’t been given a firm release date just yet. An Instagram update from Drake in June, however, saw him teasing a 2025 release date for the album.
What is the meaning of Drake’s Iceman album title?
Again, nothing is confirmed here, though Drake himself has offered plenty of clues. An image of retired NBA player George Gervin, notably, found its way onto Drake’s IG in May. Gervin, of course, was often referred to as “The Iceman.
There’s also a chance Drake has turned to the 1986 Tom Cruise-starring classic Top Gun, which boasts a classic Val Kilmer performance as Tom “Iceman” Kazansky. Kilmer, who died earlier this year at the age of 65, returned to the role in the 2022 megahit Top Gun: Maverick.
Another option here is Iceman, the Marvel Comics character.
What can we expect from Drake’s new album Iceman?
In March, then fresh off the No. 1 debut of his and PND’s $$$4U project, Drake opted for the cryptic route when teasing his “next chapter” in a note to fans.
“I understand that this next chapter may leave you feeling uneasy, but I hope you see my honesty as clarity not charity,” Drake said on IG at the time.
The winkingly titled “What Did I Miss” found Drake seemingly referencing Kendrick Lamar’s Pop Out event, generating no shortage of media attention in the process. Fans speculated that a line in the second verse, specifically “I saw bro went to Pop Out with them, but been dick-riding gang since ‘Headlines,’” may be about LeBron James.. A sense of perceived betrayal runs throughout the track, which isn’t the only new music Drake has given fans in recent days.
And no, that’s not The Weeknd you’re hearing. It’s Evîn. The song isn’t the only new music Drake has given fans in recent days. Another potential album track, possibly titled “Supermax,” included an apparent nod to Taylor Rooks.
