Overview

• Leaked audio circulating on social platforms features Drake rapping, “Talk about Drake and you get a whole lot, talk about Drake and you get you some streams.”
• Another bar about a “day one” testifying is being linked by listeners to A$AP Relli’s case involving A$AP Rocky and questions of loyalty within A$AP Mob.
• Outlets frame the clip as Drake’s first substantial musical move following the court’s dismissal of his defamation claim tied to Kendrick Lamar’s Not Like Us.
• Reports note Drake initially accused UMG of inflating streams for the Lamar track before pivoting to a defamation argument that the judge rejected.
• A$AP Rocky has criticized Drake’s legal approach in an ELLE interview, and ICEMAN is described as Drake’s ninth solo album with no release date, with a November timeframe only speculated alongside previews of Which One, What Did I Miss? and DOG HOUSE.
