Drake: The Toronto icon is a true Genius God, too with ICEMAN freezing the competition
It’s still ICEMAN season and not even a full week since the project released - but my goodness, getting a look at just how much Drake has taken over since putting out three albums when the entire world expected just one? Holy smokes.
Drake’s Genius stats are pure mind-blowing and history-making
The rap heavyweight always delivers with the anthems but getting three mind-blowing albums - ICEMAN, HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR - has put all eyes on him over at Genius. Peep the deets.
As coverage around Drake’s surprise-heavy Friday rollout continues, Genius pulled platform data around the releases of ICEMAN, HABIBTI, and MAID OF HONOUR.
The three releases drove 21.2M total Genius site views on release day, marking Drake’s biggest release-day traffic ever on the platform and surpassing all prior Drake drops. Graphic below for comparison to previous releases.
ICEMAN is now the #1 album on Genius in 2026, ahead of Harry Styles’ Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally.
The release also pushed Drake to #1 artist spot on Genius across the 7 days since launch, last 30 days, and year-to-date rankings.
