The Canadian rap superstar Aubrey Drake Graham, A.K.A. Drake has once again rewritten the musical history books. His highly anticipated eleventh studio album, ICEMAN, which was unleashed to the world on 15 May 2026, has officially achieved platinum status in a mere three weeks.
The record continues to comfortably hold its ground at the number-one spot on the charts, proving that the Toronto-born artist remains an immovable force in the global music industry.
ICEMAN made an explosive entrance onto the music scene, debuting at number one after moving a staggering 463,000 equivalent album units in its first week alone.
The majority of these figures were driven by large streaming numbers. Drake’s momentum showed few signs of slowing down in the subsequent weeks, as the album pulled in an impressive 225,000 units in its second week, followed by another 171,000 units in the third.

However, the commercial triumph does not stop there. In an unprecedented move that left the industry stunned, Drake achieved what no other artiste has managed since Billboard’s weekly charts first began in 1956.
By simultaneously dropping two surprise companion projects, HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR, alongside ICEMAN, the hip-hop titan claimed the top three consecutive spots on the charts at the exact same time.
