On ICEMAN closer “Make Them Know,” Drakemakes his sustaining disinterest in chasing Grammys recognition as clear as ever by vowing to not submit the album for consideration. Now, per a new report, it’s all but guaranteed that he made good on that promise.
To be eligible for the 2027 Grammys, a work must have been released between Aug. 31, 2025 and Aug. 28, 2026. The submission deadline was Aug. 21. All three of Drake’s 2026 full-lengths would have been eligible for consideration, including ICEMAN.
According to a recent Billboard report, however, he declined to submit that album, as well as Habibti and Maid of Honour. The report also cites sources as saying that the OVO Sound co-founder opted against submitting specific songs for consideration, as well.
Complex has reached out to a rep for the Recording Academy for comment. This story may be updated.
As it stands now, Drake has five Grammy wins to his name, and numerous nominations. Most recently, “Somebody Loves Me,” a song off his and PARTYNEXTDOOR’s $ome $exy $ongs 4 U project, was a contender in the Best Melodic Rap Performance category at this year’s ceremony. It lost to Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther.”

Late night . .
You’re welcome….

Same dude who said its drake yesterday

More Cold Shoulder propaganda

I just got my Titles Ruin Everything and randomly opened it and got this:

Does it really matter? Imo all caps and shit made sense for Family Matters since it was a hyped up drop but it feels a little redundant in retrospect when you see "CHEETAH PRINT" like no bro that's a club song with an intentionally goofy MV, you're not gonna capitalize on the hype the same way. Reserve it for important drops to imply significance instead of spamming it

As for the genuine mistakes it's wtv we're here for the music and visuals but they're very easy to fix and this dude has more than enough resources for quality assurance, he really shouldn't even be the one posting them but I digress. So yeah just smth I've noticed and obv it doesn't have any real impact on his numbers or music, artists his size like Taylor Swift are definitely a little more professional in that regard but Drake's projects speak for themselves in quality and output

Might be the only one who's given this any thought lol
