Drake Unleashes 'FOMO' Short Film, Featuring Explosive Star Collaborations!

Drake's highly anticipated short film, "FOMO" (Fear of Missing Out), has officially been restored to his YouTube channel, much to the relief of fans. The hour-long visual experience was initially removed shortly after its premiere on Tuesday, September 15, but made its triumphant return for public viewing on Thursday, September 17, ensuring wider access to the artist's latest cinematic endeavor.

"FOMO" is a rich tapestry of visuals drawn from Drake’s acclaimed albums, "HABIBTI" and "MAID OF HONOUR." Beyond showcasing existing work, the film also features exciting new collaborations with prominent artists such as Yeat, PartyNextDoor, and Don Toliver, weaving fresh musical narratives into its fabric. Drake himself described the project as "self funded surrealism," presenting "A story about making the absolute most of it all in one summer."

Accompanying the film, Drake shared profound life advice, emphasizing personal agency and relationships. "Nobody is coming to save you," he wrote, encouraging viewers to "use each day to decipher who you love and trust and march forward with them." He hoped the film would serve as motivation for significant life choices, ranging from making a crucial call or taking a trip, to dropping a song, opening a shop, visiting parents, or navigating romantic relationships. Drake also reaffirmed his unwavering commitment to his genre, stating, "They keep saying our genre is dying Videos don’t matter Nobody is watching nobody is listening I still care. As much as I did on the set of Best I Ever Had. So be kind and rewind."

The short film is replete with notable guest appearances, adding another layer of intrigue and star power. Audiences will spot cameos from figures like Sexyy Red, Stunna Sandy, Sandra Graham, NBA superstar Kevin Durant, model Winnie Harlow, Lena the Plug, and his "goth baddie," among others, creating a diverse and engaging visual experience.

Musically, "FOMO" also served as a platform for new premieres. Drake unveiled his interpolation of Ella Langley’s 22-week Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit, “Choosin’ Texas,” featuring Don Toliver. Furthermore, the track “Miss My Dawgs” is slated to be the first of the film's unreleased cuts to hit streaming services, appearing on Yeat’s "COCOON" EP, which was scheduled for release on Friday, September 18.

Beyond the film's release, Drake used a post-premiere interview to reveal future plans, announcing an expansive 2027 world tour. This tour will mark his first North American trek since 2023, signaling a major return to the global stage. He stated, “Obviously, tour is coming and there’s other things on the horizon, some big shows. We’ll be out 2027 to see everybody again across the world… We’ll see you on tour soon.”

"FOMO" follows closely on the heels of a monumental period for Drake, who in May released a trifecta of albums: "ICEMAN," "HABIBTI," and "MAID OF HONOUR." This unprecedented achievement made Drizzy the first artist in history to simultaneously occupy the top three slots of the Billboard 200, cementing his status as a dominant force in the music industry. The return of "FOMO" further solidifies his ongoing creative output and engagement with his fanbase.
