Massive Ice Sculpture in Downtown Toronto Teases Drake’s New Album
A massive frozen sculpture set up in downtown Toronto is expected to unveil the release date of Drake’s new album. The 39-year-old Canadian rapper announced on social media that the release date for his next project, dubbed *ICE MAN*, will appear once the structure melts.
The sculpture, which appears to be made up of large ice blocks, is located at 81 Bond Street. According to CityNews meteorologist Jessie Uppal, based on the current forecast, it may take at least a few days for the ice blocks to melt. Overnight temperatures in Toronto are expected to hit -3°C, but it is expected to get warmer toward the end of the week, with highs of 15°C on Wednesday and 17°C on Thursday.
Controversial Video Shoot Precedes Ice Sculpture Stunt
The ice sculpture stunt follows a large explosion seen Thursday night at Downsview Park in connection with the shooting of a video starring Drake. Flyers notifying residents of the planned explosion were circulated beforehand, and Downsview Park stated it shared advance notifications about the filming through its website and social media channels.
Downsview Park later apologized to neighbors and the surrounding community for the distress caused by the late-night film shoot, which included a blast effect and loud noises. The apology acknowledged the impact of the third-party production on residents.
