Drake surprised his fans with a variety of new tracks in his highly anticipated “not so short film” released on Tuesday night. The rapper had previously hinted at the project on Instagram, delivering on his promise with an hour-long film streamed on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Music. Titled “Fear of Missing Out (FOMO),” the film showcased Drake’s summer experiences and luxurious lifestyle, featuring scenes of him dancing in his lavish Toronto mansion, spending time with his mom and friends, and cruising on his lime-green luxury speedboat against the Toronto skyline.
Filled with Toronto and Canada references and surprises, the video included Drake and fellow rapper Loe Shimmy donning $150,000 Iron Man suits at the Canadian National Exhibition. The star-studded film also boasted appearances from notable figures like SexyyRed, Stunna Sandy, Winnie Harlow, Kevin Durant, Lena the Plug, and more.
In a similar fashion to his previous livestream event “ICEMAN,” Drake integrated new music collaborations with artists like Don Toliver, PartyNextDoor, and Yeat into the “FOMO” film, unveiling a total of nine fresh tracks, including a highly anticipated remix of Ella Langley’s hit song “Choosin’ Texas.”
During the Toronto premiere of “FOMO,” Drake revealed plans for a world tour in 2027, exciting his fans with the prospect of upcoming shows. Despite the film being made private on YouTube shortly after its debut, reactions from viewers were mixed, with some expressing disappointment while others praised the film as a testament to Drake’s enduring career and dedication to his craft.
Jamaican artist Spice congratulated Drake on the film’s success on Instagram, commending his hard work and passion. The rapper, known as Aubrey Graham in real life, had teased the release of “FOMO” in the weeks leading up to the premiere, generating anticipation with cryptic social media posts. Describing the film as a story of seizing opportunities and making the most of life, Drake shared motivational messages with his audience, urging them to take action and embrace new experiences.
