The chain is far more than a simple accessory; it’s a physical representation of the creative direction Drake is taking for his next project. Drake recently took to a livestream to reveal the jewelry, giving fans a first glimpse of the chain. For months, the rapper has been building a cinematic universe around the ICEMAN concept, using a series of promotional livestreams and singles to set the stage. Amongst the events including, Drake livestreaming from an ICEMAN-branded truck in his hometown interacting with fans while driving. The rollout, which began with his “ICEMAN Episode 1” livestream, saw Drake deliver his first single, “What Did I Miss?”
The album, also titled Iceman, is reportedly Drake’s first full-length solo release since 2023’s For All the Dogs. While plot details and a specific release date remain under wraps, the new jewelry piece confirms that the ICEMAN theme is not just a passing fancy but a central pillar of the album’s identity. As fans continue to dissect every clue, the new chain is a powerful statement of intent, signaling that the album’s frosty, meticulously crafted world is coming to life. While details of the chain’s make have not been confirmed, the diamond-encrusted piece features all-white diamonds along with red ones. Shown on Eric the Jeweler’s Instagram, the piece appears to have functioning doors and can hold pieces of ice inside, if The Boy chooses to. On the back of the piece is the phrase, “Everyone Wants To Be The Big Dog Until It’s Time To Do Big Dog Shit” is seen above the Mavani branding.
