While everyone was expecting one album last night, Drake dropped two that nobody saw coming. Alongside the long-anticipated Iceman, Drake quietly released Habibti and Maid of Honour simultaneously at midnight, catching even his most dedicated fans completely off guard.
Both projects are out now on all major streaming platforms. Here is a full breakdown of what is on each album, who features on them, and what makes them different from each other and from Iceman.
What Is Drake’s Habibti Album?
Habibti is the most sonically diverse of the three projects Drake dropped last night. Where Iceman leans into rap and personal reflection, Habibti pulls in influences from UK rap, Caribbean sounds, and club-ready production. The title itself is Arabic for “my love” or “my darling,” a term of endearment widely used across the Middle East and North Africa, which fits the warmer, more playful tone running through the project.
The feature list confirms the international direction. Central Cee representing the UK, Popcaan bringing Caribbean energy, and Sexyy Red adding the kind of chaotic fun that made her one of the most talked-about artists of 2024 and 2025.

Standout early picks: “Cheetah Print” featuring Sexyy Red is the most talked-about cut on social media since the drop. “Amazing Shape” with Popcaan is generating strong early buzz from fans of Drake’s more melodic work. “Which One” with Central Cee had already been previewed during the Iceman rollout episodes, but hearing it in context of Habibti reframes it completely as a summer record rather than a rap statement.

What Is Drake’s Maid of Honour Album?
Maid of Honour is the most unexpected of the three projects and arguably the most personal. Early listener reactions describe it as Drake at his most introspective, a slow-burning R&B-leaning record that strips away the bravado and leans into vulnerability and reflection.
The title carries obvious weight given the themes of fractured friendships and loyalty that have run through Drake’s public statements and the Iceman livestream episodes over the past year. A “maid of honour” is the person closest to you, the one standing beside you when everything counts. Framing an album around that concept after one of the most public falling-outs in rap history is a deliberate choice.
Drake Maid of Honour Full Tracklist
The complete tracklist for Maid of Honour is still being confirmed across music outlets as of publishing. What has been verified so far points to a shorter, more focused project compared to Habibti and Iceman, with a feature list that skews toward R&B artists rather than rap collaborators.

How Are Habibti and Maid of Honour Different from Iceman?
The three projects appear to have been designed to serve three completely different moods and audiences, which is likely part of why Drake chose to release them together rather than stagger them.
Iceman is the statement record. It is the one responding to the Kendrick Lamar beef, establishing legacy, and speaking directly to the rap conversation. That is the album that contains “B’s On The Table” with 21 Savage and “Ran To Atlanta” with Future.
Habibti is the party record. It is built for streaming, playlists, and summer, with a deliberately broad sonic palette and features that cross genre and geography. It is the album most likely to produce a crossover hit.
Maid of Honour is the intimate record. It appears designed for the listener who wants Drake without the armor, something closer to Take Care in tone than Certified Lover Boy in execution.
Releasing all three at once means Drake controls the entire conversation simultaneously rather than letting any single album define the narrative of his comeback.
