Canadian rap superstar Drake has officially unveiled “FOMO,” a new visual project taking a different route from the traditional album format. The film arrived on Tuesday, September 15, 2026, and Drake calls it a “not so short film.”
So “FOMO” pulls music, storytelling and visuals into one piece, but the title itself stands for “Fear of Missing Out.” The film explores friendship, taking risks and making the most of a memorable summer. Drake has described the self-funded project as a piece of surrealism, using its story to examine the different directions life can take.
At the heart of “FOMO” sits a contrast between a life shaped by fear and one driven by the courage to take chances. Drake also encouraged viewers to embrace opportunities, make important calls, take trips and pursue their creative ideas. While some critics have questioned the place of traditional music videos in modern hip-hop, he used the rollout to reaffirm his connection to the format, recalling the creative energy around the video for his 2009 breakout hit “Best I Ever Had.”
