There’s been no official word from Drake about what exactly was being filmed, but the timing has fans paying close attention.
Just days earlier, the rapper posted a photo on social media showing the back of a CD case with the words “Fear of Missing Out” written across it. The cryptic post quickly sparked speculation that Drake could be teasing another project.
If Drake is planning to release new music anytime soon, it would come as a surprise to fans who are still taking in his unusually busy year.
In May, Drake dropped Iceman, which was accompanied by two companion albums, Habiti and Maid of Honour. The releases followed months of teasing and speculation surrounding the project.
The lead-up to Iceman was a spectacle in its own right. Drake placed a massive 25-foot-tall ice sculpture made up of 3,500 blocks of ice in a Toronto parking lot, with the sculpture featuring the album’s release date.
The rapper has continued to keep fans guessing since then, using cryptic social media posts and unexpected appearances to fuel speculation about what could be coming next.
Now, his appearance at the CNE is already generating a similar buzz, and if those cameras were rolling for a new music video, it looks like Drake may have another surprise in store for Toronto.
