Every Drake album comes equipped with special guests who take the experience to the next level. But after the Civil Rap War of 2024, we have no idea where everyone stands. We know a few of his frequent collaborators, like 21 Savage and PND, are still on his side. That said, do we have any surprises in store?
We made a list of 10 features we want to see on ICEMAN when it drops on May 15 and ranked them because No. 1 is probably the biggest question mark, and also the feature everyone wants the most.
10. Lil Durk
Although he’s currently incarcerated, Durk has stated that he wants to continue being an artist when the opportunity presents itself. He and Drizzy have linked up before on “Laugh Now Cry Later” and “In The Bible,” so we’re sure it would go crazy. It’s also safe to assume that their two collaborations are not the only music they’ve worked on together, and there are some verses in the vault. Plus, you know Drake loves a good “free the guys ’till it’s backwards” tribute.
9. Quavo and Offset (Migos)
Drake and the Migos go wayyy back to the “Versace” days, so it’s always a great time to hear them link back up. While the Migos technically aren’t still together—R.I.P. Takeoff—Set and Quavo have been seen in the studio together recently. A verse from either would be great, BUT their first song together since the Migos split as a feature on Drake’s album? That would go stupid. Drake’s always had strong ATL ties, and given the heavy publicity the rollout has generated so far, he knows it would make waves to give the world a Migos reunion. Plus, let’s be honest, Aubrey & the Two Migos would hit harder than just the two of them alone.
8. Lil Baby
Drake and Lil Baby have a few collaborative bangers under their belt, and by the looks of their social media interactions, they might have another one the way. Lil Baby announced that he “already picked his side” via Instagram, and Drake liked the post.
Would we take another track from those two? “Yes Indeed.”
7. PartyNextDoor
After the success of ‘$ome $exy $ongs 4 U,’ it wouldn’t be a surprise if they spin back for a few more tunes for your headtop. While “NOKIA”—a solo Drake joint—is the biggest hit from the project, “SOMEBODY LOVES ME” and “DIE TRYING” get mad love as well.
6. Travis Scott
Yet another artist where it’s kind of hard to tell what their relationship is like, Travis Scott and Drake have made undeniable hits. Also, Trav is, somehow, an even bigger star now than he was during their “SICKO MODE” era. Travis hasn’t appeared on a Drake album since 2022’s Her Loss, but Iceman feels like the perfect time to “MELTDOWN” the rumors and remind everyone why every time they link, it becomes one of the coldest moments on the album.
5. Lil Wayne
Weezy and Drake have a complicated relationship, but Wayne has been supporting him since day one. Regardless of what happens between them, we love it when Drizzy taps in with his OG for one of their classics. They have more than a few tracks together that will live “Forever.”
4. 21 Savage
This one is practically a lock. 21 Savage has been part of Drake’s last 4 albums, and took his side during the Kendrick Lamar beef. ‘Her Loss’ is one of the street’s favorite collab albums, and the 21 Savage/Drake pairing somehow just always works. We’ll see what Jimmy cooks up, but it would be surprising for him not to show up for this one.
3. Young Thug
Even when Thug was locked up, Drizzy held it down. He reportedly gave Thugger $1 million in cash as soon as he got out. They have a long history of collaborations, dating back to 2017. From “Way 2 Sexy” and “D4L,” to “Oh U Went” from Thug’s Business Is Business project while he was behind bars, the two always show up for each other and make good music. Now that Thug’s back on the scene, another hit seems inevitable. But, we’ll have to see when the “Ice Melts” on May 15.
2. Yeat
We know that Yeat is supposedly on the album more than once, with one of those tracks being the “DOG HOUSE” single from September 2025. From when Drake first co-signed Yeat back in 2021 to now, Yeat’s become a peer, and one that Drake seems to like collaborating with. Yeat was one of the few guests who made a cameo in Drake’s ICEMAN livestreams, which was followed by the “DOG HOUSE” release, but if they have even more music in the cut? We’re all for it.
1. Future
While their fallout is well-known, it still isn’t entirely clear why it happened. On “Family Matters,” Drizzy even explains that he and Future never really had any known problems, so he was shocked by the events that unfolded. Meanwhile, Future, being his usual nonchalant self, said, “There was a beef?” with a smirk when asked about the events of 2024 in a GQ interview.
That being said, they have an entire catalog of bangers together, and out of all of Drake’s frequent collaborators whose status remains unknown, this is the one people want to hear again the most. Recently, Future dropped a quick visual of himself in the studio, dripped in Drake’s NOCTA brand. If whatever happened is simple enough to be water under the bridge, then “Life Is Good,” and you can count on more than a few ‘What A Time To Be Alive’ tweets appearing if Pluto drops a verse on May 15th.
