Drake released the official video for Cold Shoulder with Don Toliver and Yebba on October 6, 2026. The song itself arrived on streaming on October 2 as part of the expanded HABIBTI (FOMO) edition, and the standalone video gives the collaboration its own moment.
The timeline matters here, because Cold Shoulder did not start life as a standard single. It first appeared inside FOMO, the film that premiered online on September 15, before joining three other songs on the expanded album. The video release is the third step in that rollout, and it is the step that lets the record stand on its own.
From the FOMO Film to Streaming
Cold Shoulder was one of four songs added to HABIBTI through the FOMO edition, alongside Solar Eclipse, Quebec and Classic PT2. Together they turned the original project into a 24 track release, with the new material drawn directly from the film that introduced it in September.
That structure explains why the song already felt familiar when it reached streaming platforms on October 2. Listeners who watched the film had heard it in context weeks earlier. Listeners who waited for the album got it as part of a larger package. The October 6 video upload on Drake’s official YouTube channel is the first time the record has been presented simply as itself, with its own title, its own thumbnail and its own run in the recommendations feed.
Solar Eclipse, the other Drake and Don Toliver collaboration from the expansion, received the same treatment. Releasing the two videos as a pair underlines how central Toliver is to this chapter of the project, appearing across both of the expansion’s featured records.
A Canada’s Wonderland Setting
The visual was filmed at Canada’s Wonderland, the Vaughan amusement park north of Toronto, and it builds its story around an empty park and a date that never arrives. Drake moves through the grounds alone after being stood up, and the setting does most of the storytelling work.
It is a direct visual translation of the song. Cold Shoulder is about a relationship that has gone distant, with Drake asking for another chance while pride and old habits keep getting in the way. Placing that story in a park built for crowds, and then emptying it out, turns a familiar lyric theme into something you can see in a single frame.
The location also keeps the rollout rooted at home. HABIBTI (FOMO) is a global streaming story, but its most shared visual was shot at a landmark every Toronto area listener knows. That local detail has been part of Drake’s approach for years, and it gives Canadian viewers a specific reason to pass this video around.
Three Voices on One Record
The collaboration is built in layers. Yebba handles the intro and chorus, bringing the soulful tone she first brought to Drake’s world on Yebba’s Heartbreak and later on DIE TRYING with PARTYNEXTDOOR. Drake and Don Toliver split the verses, each returning to the same failing connection from a slightly different angle.
Toliver’s verse leans into loneliness and confusion about who is really at fault, while Drake’s sections mix pleading with frustration. The song runs 3 minutes and 54 seconds, and it uses that time to rotate perspectives rather than repeat a single hook until it sticks.
Drake has now earned more than 17 billion Spotify streams in 2026 across all credits, according to figures reported by Hip Hop All Day and covered by DancehallMag on October 15.
That streaming context is part of why a deluxe video still matters for this project. The expanded HABIBTI jumped from No. 116 to No. 2 on the Billboard 200 after the FOMO edition arrived, and it returned to No. 1 on the Top R and B and Hip Hop Albums chart, giving Drake his 18th career leader there. In Canada, the album also topped the Billboard Canadian Albums chart, extending his record to 17 No. 1 projects on that chart.
Why the Video Still Matters
Deluxe editions can feel like chart strategy, and the numbers above show the strategy worked. But a video filmed at Canada’s Wonderland, built around a simple and relatable story, is the part of the rollout that lives beyond the first week numbers.
For new listeners, Cold Shoulder is the most accessible entry point into the FOMO expansion. It has the clearest story, the most distinct setting and a three artist lineup that covers three different audiences at once. For longtime listeners, it is another chapter in the Drake and Yebba connection, and another sign that the Drake and Don Toliver pairing is becoming a regular one.
Cold Shoulder is available now on HABIBTI (FOMO) on all streaming platforms, and the official video is streaming on Drake’s YouTube channel.
