Drake released three albums at once, crashing Spotify and Apple Music with traffic. But after listening to the albums, rappers and some fans have expressed disappointment.

Rick Ross was dissed in the album, and he is one of many rappers who have condemned everything.

Who else is on the list?

Drake’s hit list. Every name he came for.

Rick Ross caught a vicious swing on Make Them Pay in Drake’s new album.

Drake referenced their feud history, particularly Ross’ champagne moments dissed during the Kendrick War with the cutting line, “Dog, I was Aiden Ross with streams before Aiden Ross had ever streamed.”

Taking credit for Ross’ streaming numbers while pulling in a streamer culture jab in the same breath.

In response, Rick Ross dropped a series of roasts directly attacking the album and calling it mid.

He did this whole going through comments and reactions of fans.

Damn.

Say three albums are trash albums, two years too late.

What? What site is this? Uh, complex.

He didn’t stop there. He asked Drake to wrap up his music career.

He did it. He dropped three M projects.

Hey man, it was fun while it lasted. You’re washed.

Once people actually pressed play on Ice Man, the conversation shifted on a dime.

Because what listeners realized very quickly was that this wasn’t a vacation record, a love album, or a softy reflection of where Drake was in his life.

This was a hit list set to 808s and gleaming frostbitten production.

The most obvious target was Kendrick Lamar himself, and Drake unloaded on him across multiple tracks with the kind of pent-up venom that had clearly been stewing for nearly 2 years.

On Make Them Pay, he rapped, “Damn, who is this guy for real? I guess a magician.”

100 million streams vanished. No one got questions for Nominez.

A direct knife-twisting continuation of his Universal Music Group lawsuit, claiming that Kendrick’s Not Like Us had its streams artificially inflated.

On Make Them Remember, he went after Kendrick’s height with the now infamous Mugsy Bogues reference, comparing Kendrick to the 5’3 NBA legend.

On Janice STFU, he aimed straight at Kendrick’s fan base.

White kids listen to you because they feel some guilt and that’s how your soul gets fulfilled.

And that’s how your soul gets fulfilled.

Then he went after Kendrick’s community work, mocking him for handing out turkeys on camera inside of your hood, then you go back to the hills.

If Kendrick was the headliner of Drake’s hit list, ASAP Rocky was right there in the co-feature slot.

Rocky had dropped his album Don’t Be Dumb earlier in 2026.

And on a track called Stole Your Flow, he’d already lobbed his own grenades at Drake.

Drake hit back hard.

On Burning Bridges, he aimed straight at Rocky’s relationship with Rihanna.

Your baby mama ain’t even post your single.

Damn, where she at?

A brutal surgical jab implying even Rihanna wasn’t supporting Rocky’s music.

Then on Firm Friends, he came in with the line that immediately set off alarm bells across social media.

Ky SAP P. That’s some that you could do for me.

Initials that spelled out Rocky’s name alongside a phrase nobody wanted to interpret too literally.

Jay-Z was next on the chopping block, and the shots were unmistakable.

Drake apparently felt the Roc Nation founder had completely abandoned him during the Kendrick feud.

On Janice STFU, he rapped, “We know how you OG’s rocking already. Man, the jig is up.”

Then on Whisper My Name, he made his stance unmistakable, referencing the viral social media debate about whether you’d take $500,000 cash or a dinner with Jay-Z.

His answer: I’ll take $500,000, not the dinner.

I never could learn from none of y’all.

A direct refusal of the mentorship pedestal hip-hop usually reserves for the Roc Nation boss.

LeBron James. Drake came for him, too.

On 1:00 a.m. in Albany, he called out LeBron’s well-documented history of jumping franchises.

I shouldn’t even be shocked to see you in that arena because you always made your career off of switching teams up.

A swipe at one of the most decorated basketball careers in human history.

Tucked into a song most casual fans would have scrolled right past.

DJ Khaled, longtime collaborator, architect of I’m On One, grease pop star.

No New Friends got the cold shoulder turned into a verbal ice pick.

On Make Them Pay, Drake delivered probably the most personally cutting bar of the entire project.

Khaled, you know what I mean? The beef was fully live.

You went halal and got on your deen.

And your people are still waiting for a free Palestine.

A targeted critique of Khaled’s silence on Palestine after his very public conversion to Islam.

Playboi Carti caught a verbal red dot to the forehead.

Next on Whisper My Name, Drake apparently took aim at Carti for allegedly running his mouth to a third party.

He rapped, “Baby boy, please. I heard what you said to Lil Bro about me.”

Yeah. And when you run into the Ice Man, what you going to do except freeze?

You not about to squeeze. You not in the streets.

A direct in-your-face challenge to Carti’s street credibility.

And the entire line was apparently inspired by Carti’s own track from his music album.

J. Cole got it indirectly but unmistakably.

On Make Them Pay, Drake apparently took a shot with the line, “I could have fell back like the married rapper, but we engaged.”

A clear reference to Cole’s decision to bow out of the Kendrick War early with that Might Delete Later apology.

Travis Scott, Pharrell Williams, Pusha T, Mustard — all of them apparently caught strays at various points across the three projects.

According to Complex’s full breakdown, Drake left almost no former associates untouched.

As Rolling Stone summed it up, Drake unloads his pent-up frustration at everyone from Lamar and ASAP Rocky to Universal Music Group CEO Lucian Grainge.

So when content creators called the project diss-heavy, they weren’t being dramatic about it.

Across 43 songs, Drake had personally taken aim at what felt like every name that had crossed him over the last two years.

Which raises a question worth pausing on.

If Drake himself was the one going for this many people on his own album, who exactly was doing the alleged jumping?

The narrative was about to flip in a way nobody had fully clocked yet.

The responses that came — and the silence that came louder.

If Drake had laid out the table for retaliation by personally naming this many people, the logical expectation was immediate devastating public response.

Diss tracks within 24 hours.

Aggrieved rappers logging onto Instagram Live in fury.

A flood of subliminal tweets from every Roc Nation affiliate, every Compton transplant, every name from Atlanta who had ever broken bread with the targets.

What actually happened was almost the opposite.

The closest thing to a meaningful rapper response came from ASAP Rocky, and it came months before Iceman ever dropped.

Rocky’s Don’t Be Dumb had hit shelves earlier in 2026, and on Stole Your Flow he’d already aimed at Drake.

Stole my flow so I stole your B.

Rocky rapped, “If you stole my style, I need at least like 10%.”

Charlamagne tha God had publicly predicted Rocky would be a Drake target on a pre-Iceman episode of The Breakfast Club, and he turned out to be exactly right.

But outside of Rocky’s preemptive jab, the silence from Drake’s actual targets was loud enough to ring through stadiums.

Kendrick Lamar said nothing publicly.

Jay-Z said nothing.

Travis Scott said nothing.

Pharrell said nothing.

The biggest names called out by name on the album.

The names with the loudest microphones, the deepest pockets, the most fearless catalogs mostly just refused to engage.

The closest thing to a Kendrick response came in the form of an oddly timed coincidence.

Around the same week Iceman dropped, somebody on Twitter noticed Kendrick’s GNX and Not Like Us had been temporarily pulled from streaming services.

The Twitter sleuths in Toronto immediately seized on it.

Same week as Iceman.

But a brief streaming hiccup is hardly a clapback.

Then there was DJ Khaled.

After Drake’s Free Palestine line went viral, a streamer apparently cornered Khaled and asked him point blank if he’d say “Free Palestine” on camera.

He refused.

The clip ricocheted across timelines and only made Drake’s bar on Make Them Pay hit 10 times harder than the original line had on its own.

Joe Budden, a man who spent years dissecting Drake’s catalog from his podcast platform, caught a scrapped reference too.

On his show, Budden had publicly bet he wouldn’t appear on the final track list.

After the album dropped, he claimed somebody that I can’t say publicly had informed him about a scrapped song that mentioned him by name.

As Budden told it on the podcast:

“I was so happy that that wasn’t coming out.”

Not a clapback. More of a sigh of relief.

LeBron James almost completely silent.

He didn’t tweet through it.

He didn’t address it in any postgame interview.

The closest thing to a response was him liking and unliking various posts that fans tried to read tea leaves into.

And as for Drake’s biggest target by an enormous margin, Kendrick Lamar himself — total deafening silence.

Not a tweet.

Not a story.

Not a freestyle.

Not a single indirect subliminal.

Nothing.

But the silence didn’t mean nobody was paying attention.

It meant the rappers who had every option in the world were quietly choosing not to take them.
