During 'Episode 4' of his ICEMAN livestream series on May 14, 2026, Canadian rapper Drake took aim at DJ Khaled, criticizing him for his silence on Palestine. This remark comes amid their ongoing feud, which reportedly began after Khaled claimed Drake would feature on his album Aalam of God, a claim Drake denied. In the preview of a new song titled 'Make Them Pay,' Drake rapped about Khaled's heritage, stating, "Khaled you know what I mean, the beef was fully live, you went halal... and your people are still waiting for a 'Free Palestine.'" Khaled, who has worked with Drake in the past, chose to stay neutral during Drake's 2024 rap battle with Kendrick Lamar, emphasizing his loyalty to all artists involved. He described the conflict as stemming from misunderstandings and expressed a willingness to help mend relationships. Additionally, Drake addressed the concept of a 'big three' in rap, dismissing it as a flawed notion. The full ICEMAN project was released on May 15, 2026, alongside two surprise albums.
