Drake Just Previewed a Track Sampling Fairouz and It’s a Moment

9 September 2025

When Drake meets Fairouz, you know it’s about to be legendary.

Drake knows how to shake up the internet, but this time he didn’t need a flashy collab or wild stunt. All it took was Fairouz. While previewing tracks from his upcoming album Iceman on stream, he dropped a brand new cut built on her legendary song Wahdon. And honestly? It felt iconic.

Fairouz isn’t just an artist; she’s the soundtrack of the Arab world, the voice every household knows. To hear her paired with one of the biggest names in global music is a crossover no one saw coming — but everyone instantly understood the weight of it. With Noah “OVO 40” Shebib, Drake’s Lebanese right-hand producer, in the mix, the choice feels like more than a sample — it feels like a tribute.

Why It’s Huge
This isn’t just another Western artist dipping into Arab music. It’s Fairouz (the most untouchable icon) finding new life in a global arena. It’s culture meeting culture, history meeting the present, and it hits on every level.

The Album Hype
Iceman is already shaping up to be Drake’s boldest era. Between collabs with Yeat and Cash Cobain and this jaw-dropping Fairouz moment, the anticipation is sky-high. There’s no confirmed release date yet beyond 2025, but one thing’s clear: this album is already unforgettable.
