With ICEMAN just a few hours away, there’s still major speculation about who will appear on the album. A few names have popped up in the rumor mill, including Lil Baby and Karol G but perhaps the most significant artist Drake may have collaborated with recently is Future. As you’re fully aware, Future and Metro Boomin’s album, We Don’t Trust You, is what effectively set off the mass anti-Drake campaign that persists today with “Like That,” the single that included a fiery and combative verse from Kendrick Lamar.
However, Drake and Future might be back on good terms–weird but kind of expected. But how they got back on good terms remains the question lingering on everyone’s mind. According to Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda, it would not have happened without the assistance of some of Atlanta’s finest, namely 21 Savage and Big Bank.
“Drake supposedly shot a video with Future and Big Bank and 21 Savage is the reason that beef is squashed,” Yayo said before being the latest voice to fuel rumors of an ICEMAN collab. “Future will be on the Drake album. I told y’all n***as, ICEMAN is back. Stand up f*cking Canada.”
Tony Yayo Shares Why Kendrick’s Music Was Removed From DSPs Briefly
On the topic of the recent Kendrick Lamar songs being removed from platforms briefly, Yayo explained that both Drake and Kendrick are bigger than the machine. “Sometimes when you go against the machine, the machine goes against you,” he added. “We don’t know what it is but we know that he’s going to do numbers. When we hear the Future and Drake record, it’s going to be one of them. The video is going to be crazy.”
With only a few hours to go, Drake plans to launch the final episode of the ICEMAN livestream series at 9:45 p.m. EST tonight. Fans will be able to tune in via YouTube. So far, a few songs that are supposedly on the project have been leaked so we’ll see if tracks like “1AM In Albany” appear on the final tracklist.” Check out Tony Yayo’s comments above.
