Drake Confirms 'FOMO' Is a 'Not So Short Film'

The trailer signals a visual-first rollout built on Drake’s YouTube premiere strategy with no confirmed new music.

Overview

  • Drake released a 25-second trailer on Saturday that labels FOMO as “a not so short film directed and scored by the family” and shows him on a neon green speedboat with a female narrator.
  • The artist set a single-platform YouTube premiere for Tuesday, September 15 at 9 p.m. ET, saying the film will debut there live.
  • Coverage and fans have widely speculated about musical content but no soundtrack, album listing, or confirmed new songs have been announced by Drake or his team.
  • The FOMO rollout began in August with family-photo posts, a CD-style image reading “FEAR OF MISSING OUT,” and location sightings in Toronto that fueled fan theories about the project’s form.
  • The move leans on Drake’s prior TV and film work and his recent spectacle-driven rollouts, making the premiere a cultural event to watch for how he blends cinematic storytelling with music promotion.
