DRAKE'S FOMO SONGS ARRIVED AS A HABIBTI DELUXE

Drake's FOMO is not on Apple Music as an album, because it was never released as one. The film streamed live there on September 15, 2026 and then left, and its songs reached streaming on October 2 as four added tracks inside HABIBTI, titled HABIBTI (FOMO).

A Livestream Is Not a Release

Apple Music announced the FOMO livestream as "happening now" on September 15, alongside the YouTube and Spotify streams, which began at 9 p.m. Eastern. Once the livestream ended, the film could not be replayed on those services, and Drake later put the full one hour film on his YouTube channel. Nothing from that night was filed as an album, so a search for FOMO on Apple Music has no record to return.

The rollout never promised one. Drake first posted a CD jewel case stamped FOMO on August 21, then announced on September 12 "a not so short film directed and scored by the family." That is the trailer and date announcement, and it called the project a film. The premiere night itself opened on a shirtless balcony scene, and fans in the chat went looking for tracklists afterward. There was none to find.

"Not All of Them, but Enough of Them"

Songs were coming, and Drake said so himself. On a Kick livestream he told viewers that "not all of them, but enough of them" would reach streaming services, pointing to a Thursday. Outlets including XXL and Billboard Canada ran the news on that basis.

The songs landed a day later than that expectation. Rolling Stone Canada reports they arrived on Friday, October 2, 2026, as an expansion of HABIBTI that lifts it from 11 tracks to 15. The four additions are "Quebec," "Cold Shoulder" with Don Toliver and Yebba, "Classic PT2," and "Solar Eclipse," a Don Toliver collaboration built on Ella Langley's "Choosin' Texas." Stereogum had flagged the Choosin' Texas remake when the film first aired, so the song was heard on September 15 and sat unreleased for seventeen days.

Where the Songs Live Now

On Apple Music, the four tracks sit on the HABIBTI page, not on a FOMO page. HotNewHipHop's listening guide points fans to Drake's artist page on Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal and Amazon Music, and the deluxe carries the FOMO name in parentheses only. I could not open Apple Music's own listing from here, so the track placement on that service rests on those reports and on the album's standard deluxe packaging.

Anything else from the film that did not make the four stays unreleased. "Not all of them" meant what it said. TikTok and Facebook posts promise zip downloads you can import into Apple Music, but those are unofficial uploads, not releases, and they are not worth the risk of a takedown or a bad file.

Why a Deluxe Instead of a New Album

Putting the songs under HABIBTI rather than a fresh FOMO album did one measurable thing: it pointed all the new streams at an existing chart entry. HABIBTI had been sitting at No. 116 on the Billboard 200. After the October 2 expansion it debuted at No. 2 with 71,000 units, according to HotNewHipHop, a climb of 114 spots. The same outlet reports the four new songs pulled about 8.96 million Spotify streams on their first full day, with "Solar Eclipse" leading at roughly 3.3 million. Both numbers are secondhand trade figures, not Billboard's own release, so treat them as reported.

The reason is a reading, not a statement from Drake, but the arithmetic supports it. HABIBTI is one of the three albums Drake released together on May 15, when ICEMAN, MAID OF HONOUR and HABIBTI arrived at midnight. That night, 43 of the top 50 spots on the U.S. Apple Music chart belonged to those albums, with HABIBTI holding the No. 3 album slot behind ICEMAN and MAID OF HONOUR. Rebuilding a catalog album with fresh songs revives a chart position that already exists, which a standalone film soundtrack could not do on day one.

A Self Funded Film With Catalog Distribution

There is a tension worth naming. Drake framed FOMO as self funded surrealism credited to nobody but the members, the one project that carried no outside balance sheet. Its songs reached listeners the usual way, through an album page on every major service. The film stayed his, on his channel. The music went to the catalog.

For anyone asking why FOMO is not on Apple Music: the film was a one night livestream there, the album never existed, and the songs are on the HABIBTI page, dated October 2, 2026. Open that page and look for the four titles.
