With Iceman landing at No. 1, Maid of Honour at No. 6, and Habibti at No. 7 on Friday (May 22), he becomes the first artist to debut three studio albums inside the top 10 of the U.K.’s Official Albums Chart simultaneously.
The last artist to achieve a similar feat was Prince, who debuted three compilation records (The Hits/The B-Sides, The Hits 1 and The Hits 2) inside the top 10 back in 1993.
While Drizzy teased Iceman with an array of attention-grabbing stunts, Maid of Honour and Habibti were dropped with no prior warning. “Janice STFU” and “National Treasures” from Iceman land at No. 2 and No. 3, respectively, on the U.K.’s Official Singles Chart.
In a ranking of Drake’s 20 projects so far by Billboard staff, Iceman was considered his sixth-best LP, with Maid of Honour at No. 12, and Habibti at No. 17.
Drake now boasts seven U.K. No. 1 albums overall with Iceman joining Views (2016), Scorpio (2018), Dark Lane Demo Tapes (2020), Certified Lover Boy (2021), Her Loss (2022) For All the Dogs (2023).
Michael Jackson‘s The Essential compilation falls just one place to No. 2, having spent the past two weeks at the summit. Another of MJ’s catalog lands in the top five with Thriller closing at No. 4, and Bad (No. 8) and Off The Wall (No. 37) also performing well.
Olivia Dean’s The Art of Loving continues to endure and finishes at No. 3, with Noah Kahan’s The Great Divide at No. 5.
