Drake is currently the focal point of global music conversations following the surprise release of his three new albums: Iceman, Maid of Honour, and Habibti. Each project offers a distinct sonic identity, and fans are already diving deep into the discography to determine their favorites. The commercial impact has been immediate, with all three albums currently occupying the top three spots on Apple Music.
The momentum extends to individual tracks as well. His song ‘Make Them Cry’ has officially set a new record for the biggest streaming day for a hip-hop track on Spotify, successfully surpassing Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’.
Industry analysts have now provided the first-week sales projections for the trio of projects. According to reports from HDD, Iceman is on track to move between 480,000 and 520,000 units in its opening week. This performance is expected to secure the number one spot on the Billboard 200 and potentially challenge the record for the biggest debut for a rap album since his own Certified Lover Boy.
Meanwhile, Maid of Honour is projected to shift between 115,000 and 135,000 units, while Habibti is expected to land in the 110,000 to 130,000 range. As the industry watches these figures closely, fans await the final Billboard tallies arriving next week.
