Drake has officially lifted the curtain on 'Fear of Missing Out', an ambitious visual project capturing a summer of music, family, luxury and life in his hometown of Toronto. The Canadian superstar premiered the hour-long film on Tuesday night following weeks of speculation surrounding the mysterious project. Fans had originally expected the livestream to begin at 9pm ET, though a series of delays meant viewers had to wait a little longer before 'Fear of Missing Out' finally arrived.


Once the film began, audiences were given an extensive look inside Drake’s world. From dancing around his sprawling home to cruising across the water with Toronto’s skyline providing the backdrop, the project blends extravagant moments with more personal scenes.

One sequence features Drake’s mother, Sandi Graham, spending time in conversation with close friends, while another sees the rapper showing off two Iron Man suits reportedly valued at $150,000 each. Music remains at the heart of the project throughout. 'Fear of Missing Out' features material connected to Drake’s recent releases 'Maid of Honour', 'Habibti' and 'ICEMAN', alongside visuals for songs including 'WNBA', 'Road Trips' and 'Hoe Phase'.


There are also several surprises for fans, with previously unheard music appearing throughout the film. Don Toliver features prominently, including on a slowed-down reworking of Ella Langley’s hit 'Choosin’ Texas', while further unreleased collaborations involving Toliver and Yeat are also previewed.


Sexyy Red is among the familiar faces appearing across the project, with Winnie Harlow, Lena the Plug and Loe Shimmy also making appearances. Toronto itself plays a major role in the film. Locations and landmarks including Casa Loma and the Canadian National Exhibition help provide the setting for a collection of summer memories, giving the project the feel of both a music film and a visual diary of Drake’s life in the city.

Directed by Theo Skudra, Liam Macrae, Jake Schreier, Zong Li and Glenn Michael, the film was described by Drake ahead of its premiere as an exercise in “self-funded surrealism.” The rapper explained that the project was built around the idea of squeezing as much as possible out of a single summer. In a message shared ahead of its release, he encouraged people to be intentional about who they trust, how they spend their time and which opportunities they choose to pursue.


His message also touched on taking chances that might otherwise be delayed or ignored - whether that means travelling somewhere new, releasing music, launching a business, reconnecting with family or making an important decision about a relationship.


Hints surrounding 'Fear of Missing Out' first began appearing weeks before the premiere. Drake initially shared family photographs accompanied by the words 'FOMO 2026', before later posting artwork resembling a CD cover bearing the project’s full title. A day before its arrival, he offered the clearest indication yet of what fans could expect, referring to the release as a “not so short film” while sharing another teaser across social media. The premiere also brought news about what could be Drake’s next major chapter.


Speaking to Etalk Canada ahead of the film’s debut, the Toronto artist confirmed that plans are being developed for a global tour in 2027. Further information surrounding dates, cities and venues has yet to be announced. The announcement potentially positions 'Fear of Missing Out' as a bridge between Drake’s recent run of music and his return to stages around the world next year.


Rather than presenting the project as a conventional collection of music videos, Drake uses the hour-long format to bring together new songs, existing releases, cinematic scenes and glimpses into his personal life. Following its initial YouTube premiere, the stream was switched to private, making its first showing a limited moment for those who tuned in.


With unreleased collaborations, scenes from across Toronto and confirmation that another international tour is being prepared, 'Fear of Missing Out' offers fans an early look at where Drake could be heading next.
