Drake's 'not so short film' features the full version of his and Toliver's R&B remix of Ella Langley's No. 1 hit "Choosin' Texas," plus several new music videos for tracks on Habibti and Maid of Honour.
Drake is hard to miss this year.
After a delayed start, the 6 God's FOMO livestream arrived to YouTube on Tuesday night (Sept. 15), kicking off shortly after 10:30 pm. The hour-long ‘not so short film’ is an ode to his illustrious summer full of events and surprise appearances in Toronto and it features several snippets of new music, as well as a handful of music videos for various tracks on his albums Maid of Honour and Habibti
One of several unreleased songs debuted during the livestream is a Don Toliver collaboration presumably titled “Cold Shoulder,” a melodic rap cut that features warm gospel vocals. In the video for the song, Drake rents out the Canada’s Wonderland amusement park for himself and enjoys several rides including the Behemoth roller coaster and the spinning Wilde Knight Mares. It’s one of the two first-ever collaborations between the two mega-rappers.
The other is Drake’s R&B rendition of Ella Langley’s record-setting Billboard No. 1 hit “Choosin’ Texas,” which was first previewed at a Toronto club and includes a verse by Toliver. Its music video features clips of Drake backstage at Ella Langley’s recent Arkansas concert, where he sang her smash hit single on the jumbotron, and Don Toliver’s Toronto show on Aug. 31, where he made a surprise appearance and played Iceman songs live for the first time. The livestream also features a new R&B track, which Drake performs while riding a boat on Lake Ontario, on the Toronto waterfront.
Drake also debuted a new Yeat collaboration near the stream’s end seemingly titled “Miss My Dawgs,” a melancholic song with bright strings that features an animated verse from Drake’s “IDGAF” collaborator. The video for the song is a walk down memory lane featuring several landmarks from Drake’s most recognizable music videos and album covers, including Joso’s, the Yorkville restaurant featured on the artwork forTake Care, the Miami beach where he gave out money in the “God’s Plan” music video, the pharmacy from “Started From the Bottom,” the colourful set from "Hotline Bling" and many more.
The rest of the livestream is largely dedicated to full-length or short music videos from tracks on Habibti and Maid of Honour, which formed Drake’s surprise album trilogy along with Iceman in May. Drake’s recent appearance at the CNE wearing an Iron Man suit turned out to be for the video for “I’m Spent,” his collaboration with Loe Shimmy, who also appears in a superhero suit, with both outfits costing $150,000 in total according to a voice note from Drake’s accountant that prefaced the song.
The video for “True Bestie” follows Drizzy’s mother Sandra Graham and her friends on a night out to dinner at Toronto’s Harbour 60 restaurant, and even showcases her new “ICEMOM” tattoo. “H-e Phase” includes footage from Drake’s recent appearance at Gordo’s recent DJ set at Port Lands in Toronto, the Habibti track “Classic” receives an extended version and “Princess” sees Drake rocking an emo look after a trip to Hot Topic with Pinkchyu, the “goth baddie” and winner of his 20 v. 1 dating challenge during his anniversary livestream with Stake.
Drake also held a private premiere for the film, where he revealed that he is set to take his albums on the road next year. “We’ll be out, 2027, to see everybody again across the world,” he told Tyrone "T-Rex" Edwards at the event. It would mark his first headline tour since his Some Special Shows 4U trek in the U.K. and Europe last summer, where he first confirmed the Iceman album title.
