Drake took a moment to reflect on karma and longevity during a recent stop on his and PARTYNEXTDOOR’s $ome $pecial $hows 4 UK EU tour, reminding fans that he’s gotten this far “by being good to people.”
In a fan-shot video from what appears to be the Iceman rapper’s first of three Amsterdam shows, Drake can be seen encouraging the crowd to “never give up” on going after what they want in life.
“I hope you get everything you want,” Drake told the crowd. “Never give up. Keep going, not even on some preachy shit. This might be the moment that you need to hear it. And the biggest thing I would say to you is I didn’t get here by being a piece of shit. I didn’t get here by being a snake. I didn’t get here by being a dickhead. I got here by being good to people, being nice to people, and my karma is straight.”
Drake went on to say, “That’s why I’m still on stage in 2025, trust me. And I appreciate you always supporting me, always being there for me. I love y’all. I don’t have no jokes tonight. I usually tell a joke or some shit but tonight it’s no jokes. It’s just love. I appreciate you so much. I’m working on this album for y’all, Iceman. We got a lot to talk about.”
The latest Iceman tease follows similar comments Drake made during his stop in Birmingham, and it comes shortly after he dropped two new tracks: “What Did I Miss?” and “Which One.” The latter features Central Cee, who’s also set to perform at ComplexCon in Las Vegas this October.
While there’s still no official release date for Iceman, it’s widely expected to arrive before the end of the year. Check here for more details on what’s known about the highly anticipated follow-up to For All the Dogs so far.
