Drake has been teasing some sort of project called FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out), and the artist continues to drop some hints.

Drake knows how to drum up hype for his projects, even when they're shrouded in mystery. That is certainly the case with his most recent endeavor, "FOMO," also known as "Fear Of Missing Out."

Just a few weeks ago, Drake posted a CD cover that said "Fear Of Missing Out" on the front. This subsequently led to other posts in which Drake used the acronym "FOMO." It has not been confirmed whether "FOMO" is an album or some kind of tour. However, fans are holding out hope that it is the former.

On Monday evening, a letter Drake wrote to a man named Matt started circulating online. In this letter, Drake writes: "To Matt, Two truth tellers! Love and respect my g. 6'er. ICE. 2026 FOMO."

Drake Is Giving Fans FOMO

This letter suggests that "FOMO" is coming this year. Once again, it is unclear whether or not this is actually an album or some other project. The speculation has been mounting, and Drake has no qualms about leaning into the hype.

If he does drop another album later this year, that will be his fourth of 2026. Of course, back on May 15, he shocked the hip-hop world by announcing three new albums. In addition to ICEMAN, he also dropped HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR.

ICEMAN has gone on to be a monstrous commercial success. He even went number one with songs like "Janice STFU." For many, the album was a true return to form after a rough 2024.

Drake recently unveiled a remix of the song "Choosin Texas" by Ella Langley. This suggests the artist wants to get into his country bag. Whether or not that has anything to do with "FOMO" remains to be seen.
