Many listeners might not say it out loud, but Drake’s ICEMAN has undeniably delivered some strong records. “Janice STFU” managed to hold the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for two consecutive weeks, with early reactions suggesting it could easily become one of the defining songs of the summer. Still, if social media momentum is any indication of what’s next, another track from the album, “Shabang,” is starting to emerge as a serious contender for that same spotlight.
The track has already drawn significant attention, particularly for Toronto producer Maneesh On The Beat, who has previously collaborated with Drake. Its rising popularity on platforms like Instagram and TikTok has also sparked a new viral challenge.
Produced by Maneesh On The Beat alongside 40, the song reached No. 4 on the Hot 100 last week and appears to still be gaining traction. The challenge itself features users editing visuals, often making objects such as drinks appear seemingly out of nowhere during the hook, where Drake delivers the line, “Maneesh on the beat, shabang/ All of my opps, they dead.” The trend has even caught the attention of celebrities including Summer Walker and Joe Jonas.
Drake Scores Third Week On Top Of The Charts
Clearly, Drake is once again positioning himself at the center of the summer conversation. ICEMAN has secured the top album spot for three straight weeks, reinforcing its commercial strength. While MAID OF HONOUR and HABIBTI have since moved down the charts, there is still speculation that either project could see renewed attention as the season continues.
A collection of fan videos participating in the “Shabang” challenge is circulating widely online, further fueling the track’s momentum as it continues to grow in popularity.
