Drake released “ICEMAN” on Friday, May 15, 2026, adding a new full-length project to his catalog after days of online speculation about the album’s arrival. Apple Music lists the release as an 18-song set with a runtime of 1 hour and 8 minutes, and credits it to OVO under exclusive license to Republic Records, a division of UMG Recordings. (music.apple.com) Apple Music’s album page gave the clearest early public confirmation of the rollout, showing the project live on May 15 with a full track list and guest credits. (music.apple.com) The page identifies Drake by his legal name, Aubrey Graham, and places the album in the Hip-Hop/Rap category. (drakerelated.com) ### What is on “ICEMAN”? Apple Music lists 18 tracks on “ICEMAN,” beginning with “Make Them Cry” and ending with “Make Them Know.” The service shows songs including “Dust,” “Whisper My Name,” “Janice STFU,” “Shabang,” “Burning Bridges,” “What Did I Miss?” and “2 Hard 4 The Radio.” (music.apple.com) The same listing puts the album’s total length at 68 minutes. The track order and durations were visible at launch, suggesting the release went live as a complete album rather than as a staggered upload of singles. That last point is an inference based on the platform listing. (music.apple.com) ### Which artists appear with Drake on the album? Apple Music credits Future and Molly Santana on “Ran To Atlanta.” The service also credits 21 Savage on “B’s On The Table.” Those are the featured artists visible on the album page that was publicly available on May 15. (music.apple.com) No additional performers are named in the Apple Music listing that was reviewed for this report. ### Who released it, and under what label? The Apple Music page says “ICEMAN” is a 2026 release from OVO, under exclusive license to Republic Records, a division of UMG Recordings. (music.apple.com) That matches Drake’s longstanding ties to OVO and Republic’s parent company Universal Music Group. May 15, 2026, appears as the release date on the service’s U.S. and international album pages. (music.apple.com) The mirrored metadata across those pages indicates the release information was standardized across markets at launch. That is an inference from the matching public listings. ### Where could listeners find the album first? Apple Music had a live album page available on Friday with all 18 songs listed. The page also notes that the project is available in the iTunes Store. Streaming-platform availability is often the first verifiable sign of a music release going public, especially when artist-owned sites are used more for merchandise, branding and tour updates than for complete metadata. (music.apple.com) Drake’s official website, Drake Related, was accessible on Friday and links fans to albums, projects and tour information. ### What comes next after the release day rollout? Drake’s official tour page lists July 20 in Birmingham, England, at Utilita Arena as the next dated stop on his published schedule. The same page shows additional July, August and September dates across Europe, including Manchester, Amsterdam, Paris and Berlin. (music.apple.com) Those dates give the next concrete marker after the album’s May 15 release. As of Friday, the publicly available tour page did not show a separate “ICEMAN” release event or launch performance tied directly to the album. (drakerelated.com 1) (drakerelated.com 2)
