Eddie Griffin Dismisses Drake’s ‘ICEMAN’ Album While Criticizing LeBron James Diss
Comedian Eddie Griffin has weighed in on Drake’s latest album ICEMAN, saying he refuses to even listen to the project while criticizing the rapper for what he sees as unnecessary shots at LeBron James.
Speaking on his NNN Show on YouTube, Griffin took aim at Drake’s recent lyrical choices, particularly the references believed to be directed at LeBron following the NBA star’s public support for Kendrick Lamar during his rap battle with Drake.
Griffin began by joking about broader cultural reactions to the album, before shifting into a direct critique of the Toronto rapper’s mindset and perceived sensitivity in the ongoing feud.
“I haven’t heard the album because I refuse to buy garbage,” Griffin said around the 8:12 mark. “But he’s said to have a song clowning LeBron James because LeBron took a picture with Kendrick Lamar after taking one with Drake. You’re so sensitive… that sounds like a b***h to me.”
He went on to mock Drake’s reaction to the situation, suggesting the rapper was taking the perceived slight too personally and should move on from the ongoing rivalry narrative.
Drake’s issues with LeBron James reportedly stem from the NBA star’s support of Kendrick Lamar during their high-profile rap feud, including attending Lamar’s “Pop Out” concert and publicly enjoying Not Like Us. Since then, Drake has appeared to reference LeBron in multiple tracks, with fans pointing to lines on ICEMAN—particularly the song Make Them Remember—as the most direct shots.
In those lyrics, Drake appears to question loyalty and switching allegiances, rapping lines that many interpreted as targeting LeBron’s support for Kendrick.
Despite the tension, LeBron has previously downplayed any serious fallout, stating in an interview that there is still mutual respect between him and Drake, even if they are currently in different spaces professionally and personally.
As speculation continues around ICEMAN, reactions from public figures like Eddie Griffin add another layer to the ongoing conversation surrounding Drake’s recent lyrical direction and his high-profile rap rivalries.
