Drake Takes Shots at Kendrick Lamar Throughout Iceman
Kendrick Lamar bears the brunt of Drake’s anger on the new album. The Toronto rapper mocks Kendrick’s physical stature, claiming he’s even more amazed than watching 5-foot-3 NBA legend Muggsy Bogues dunk. On Make Them Remember, Drake directly references Kendrick’s height in a cutting lyric.
Drake also attacks Kendrick’s credibility, suggesting his fanbase consists only of white listeners who listen out of guilt. The lyric from Janice STFU states, “White kids listen to you cause they feel some guilt and that’s how your soul gets fulfilled.” This jab extends to Kendrick’s community work, with Drake mocking him for handling out turkeys on camera before retreating to luxury homes.

JAY-Z Faces Disses on Multiple Iceman Tracks
The legendary entrepreneur JAY-Z didn’t escape Drake’s wrath on the new project. On Janice STFU, Drake criticizes JAY-Z and other veteran artists for refusing to embrace the new generation. Drake raps, “We know how you OGs rocking already, my n***a, the jig is up.”
Drake also references a famous social media debate about choosing between a $500,000 payment or having dinner with JAY-Z. On Whisper My Name, Drake makes clear his stance, declaring he’d take the cash over any mentorship opportunity. These disses suggest Drake feels abandoned by the Roc Nation founder during his feud with Kendrick.

LeBron James Gets Blasted Over Team Switching
NBA superstar LeBron James faces unexpected heat from Drake on the track 1 AM In Albany. Despite their years-long friendship, Drake directly criticizes LeBron for his career of switching teams. Drake raps, “I shouldn’t even be shocked to see you in that arena, because you always made your career off of switching teams up.”
Drake also references the DNA test controversy, making a crude comparison about authenticity. The diss appears to stem from LeBron’s alleged silence during Drake’s feud with Kendrick. Sources suggest former collaborators like LeBron didn’t publicly support Drake when the beef escalated, leading to these brutal disses on his latest project.
How Does Iceman Compare to Drake’s Most Aggressive Albums?
Iceman marks Drake’s angriest project in years, surpassing even his 2025 responses to Kendrick’s Not Like Us. The ninth studio album features thinly veiled subliminals and vicious sneak disses across multiple tracks. Drake targets not just fellow rappers, but also extends shots at Pharrell Williams, Pusha T, A$AP Rocky, Rick Ross, DJ Khaled, Travis Scott, and Mustard.
The project’s intensity suggests this could be the final escalation in Drake’s Kendrick feud, or it could spark immediate responses. Music industry insiders are already analyzing lyrics frame by frame, and social media reactions show divided opinions on whether Drake landed effectively or crossed lines with these disses.
