Drake strikes back.
The rapper shocked fans on Friday by releasing three new albums, âIceman,â âHabibtiâ and âMaid of Honour,â with plenty of digs at other celebrities, including his long-time rival, Kendrick Lamar.
After the pair threw jabs at each other with diss tracks like âNot Like Usâ and âFamily Matters,â Drake, 39, escalated the feud by making multiple scathing comments about Lamar, 38, in his new music.
Fans decoded Drakeâs lyrics on social media and pointed out all the shots he took at other celebs.
Here are all the celebrities Drake dissed on his new albums.
Kendrick Lamar
In his song âMake Them Payâ, Drake sings about how he filed a lawsuit against his own record label, UMG, in 2025, accusing it of defamation for releasing âNot Like Us,â in which Lamar calls Drake a âpedophile.â
In the now-dismissed lawsuit, Drake claimed UMG illegally boosted the songâs popularity.
âDamn, who is this guy for real/ I guess a magician/ 100 million streams vanished, no one got questions,â Drake raps in âMake Them Pay.â
In âMake Them Remember,â Drake mocks Lamarâs height by mentioning 5-foot-3 NBA star Muggsy Bogues.
âAnd Muggsy Bogues dunked for once, even Iâm a bit amazed,â he says.
Drake also goes after Lamarâs public image on his âIcemanâ album, singing, âWhite kids listen to you cuzâ they feel some guilt, and thatâs how your soul get fulfilled.â
And on âDust,â Drake raps about forgetting Lamarâs diss tracks, âWhat was the year you said you had slaps, cause I donât remember it going like that, I donât remember one word of your raps.â
J. Cole
J. Cole catches a stray on âMake Them Payâ with a diss at the âBig 3â of modern rap, which includes the former, Drake and Lamar.
âFâk a big three anyway, there was too many chefs in the kitchen, it was a mess to begin with,â Drake says.
Elsewhere in the song, Drake appears to allude to J. Cole not taking his side in his drama with Lamar.
âI stood 10 Ts and accepted the mission, âcause Iâd much rather death than submission,â Drake sings. âHow can you press the ignition and let some memories of the past affect your decision?â
Jay-Z
Drake disses Jay-Z on multiple songs, including âJanice STFU,â where he calls out the Roc Nation founder and other veteran artists for not embracing the new guard.
âWe know how you OGs rocking already, my nâa, the jig is up,â Drake raps.
On âWhisper My Name,â Drake alludes to the social media debate over whether someone would rather have dinner with Jay-Z or get $500K in cash.
ââll take $500K, not the dinner, I never could learn sât from none of yâall,â Drake sings.
DJ Khaled
On âMake Them Play,â Drake calls out DJ Khaled for not joining him in speaking out in support of Palestine.
âKhaled you know what I mean, the beef was fully live, you went halal⊠and your people are still waiting for a âFree Palestineâ but apparently everything isnât black and white and red and green. Iâm seeing everyoneâs true colours,â Drake raps.
A$AP Rocky and Rihanna
On âBurning Bridges,â Drake seems to diss Rihanna, whom he dated on and off from 2009 to 2016, and her partner, A$AP Rocky, for her not releasing new music in a decade.
âYo baby mama ainât even post your single, where she at?â the lyrics state.
Rick Ross
âMake Them Payâ also includes an apparent diss at Rick Ross, with the line, âDog, I was aiding Ross with streams before Adin Ross had ever streamed.â
Before the three albums came out, Page Six exclusively asked Ross, 50, where he stands with Drake, to which he replied, âItâs nothing.â
Ross also teased that there will be diss tracks on his 12th studio album, âSet in Stone,â which comes out next month.
âItâs always diss tracks,â he told us. âIt wouldnât be fun if it wasnât. That competitive spirit, to me, is what made Hip Hop what it was. It has to be competitive.â
Dr. Dre
On â1 AM In Albany,â Drake seemingly suggests Dr. Dre should be in jail.
âIf Drake took out the AK, maybe heâd be in jail, just based off the name that it spells,â he raps.
Pharrell Williams
On âMake Them Pay,â Drake brags about owning jewelry that belonged to Virginia Beach native Pharrell Williams.
âI got all the chains that they ever repped in Virginia/ I got nâasâ prized possessions, I get possessive on nâas,â Drake sings.
LeBron James
Drake takes a direct shot at LeBron James â despite their years-long friendship â on â1 AM In Albany.â
âI shouldnât even be shocked to see you in that arena, because you always made your career off of switching teams up,â Drake says.
âPlease stop asking whatâs going on with 23 & me, Iâm a real nâa, and heâs not, itâs in my DNA.â
