Solar Eclipse Drake AI is a 15-second video in which one person, you, raps into the lens in a dark club in front of a glowing blue wall. It has nothing to do with a real eclipse: the name comes from the Drake and Don Toliver song Solar Eclipse, and videosi makes the clip from one photo of you.
Key takeaways
- The trend is named after a song, not the sky. No eclipse appears in the picture.
- One photo gives you the face, hair and clothes. There is no outfit picker.
- The mouth moves loosely as if rapping. It does not lip-sync the song.
- A 15-second Standard 720p video is 13 credits, and your first video never costs more than 10.
- The song's rights belong to the rights holders, so a platform may mute the sound.

Where does the name come from?
It comes straight from the song title. Solar Eclipse is a track by Drake featuring Don Toliver, and people on TikTok began putting themselves into its blue-wall club scene. The word "eclipse" describes the song, not what you see. If you search for it hoping for a sky event, you will land on music and AI edits instead.
That is worth knowing because the phrase is easy to misread. The page on Solar Eclipse Drake AI is about a character swap in a club, and the only light in the picture is a blue LED wall.
What do we know about the song?
Press coverage gives a clear picture. Whiskey Riff reports that the track came out on October 2, 2026, as part of Drake's HABIBIT (FOMO) project, and that it debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100, his 91st top 10 hit. The same piece says it reworks Ella Langley's Choosin' Texas, which sat at No. 2 that week.
Complex adds that the songs belong to a reissued edition of Drake's Habibti album, and that the album jumped to No. 2 on the Billboard 200. You can read the original reports at Whiskey Riff and Complex.
Is the club scene from an official video?
The trend borrows its look from Drake's video for the song. Complex reported on October 6, 2026 that Drake uploaded official videos for Solar Eclipse and Cold Shoulder to YouTube, and that both songs first appeared in his FOMO short film. The article does not describe the visuals, so we do not claim more about the scene from it. The details of the scene on this page come from our own breakdown of the clip. See the report at Complex.
Our own record of the trend is more modest. The earliest high-view club clip we checked is dated October 3, 2026, one day after release, and the AI swap tutorials we found start on October 24. No original AI creator is confirmed, so we do not name one.
What exactly happens in the 15 seconds?
The clip follows the club scene shot for shot, with a handheld camera held close to the lens. In order, the person:
- tilts their head and starts rapping in front of the blue wall;
- looks up in profile with one finger raised, then brings a hand to the chin;
- turns aside and leans back as the camera drifts;
- pushes a hand right up to the lens, then leans in;
- holds a fist at the chest, then does a finger-gun point with a small grin;
- finishes with a low open hand, a straight look into the camera and an arm swung out to the side.
The dark club, the glowing blue wall and the carved ceiling stay as they are. Only the people change.
Which photo works best?
Use one sharp photo of one adult, with the face and upper body in view. The shots stay close to the lens, so the model needs a clear face, shoulders and chest. Soft front light, such as daylight from a window, helps keep your real skin tone once the blue wall lights the scene.
Avoid a cropped face, heavy shadow, a hat, sunglasses or a second person in frame. A second face can blend into yours. If you want the full walkthrough, the steps are on the Solar Eclipse Drake AI page.
How do I control what I wear?
You control it through the photo, because there is no outfit picker. Your clothes, hair, build and skin tone all come from the picture you upload, and the original man's jacket, chain and braids are not carried over unless your photo shows something similar.
Some examples on the page show jerseys and a leather jacket. Those people wore that look in their own photos. If you want a dark jacket over a jersey, upload a photo of yourself in one.
Will my mouth match the words?
No. The mouth moves loosely, as if you were rapping along, but it does not follow the lyrics. This is a performance clip, not a lip-sync. That is a deliberate choice in the recipe, and it is also why the video works at arm's length: the viewer reads the head tilts, the pointing and the lean toward the lens.
If you need exact word matching, this format is not the right tool. If you want the gestures and the mood of the club, it is.
What happens to the people behind me?
Everyone else in the room is replaced. Each background person becomes a different anonymous adult in plain dark clothes, kept soft and dim, so no face from the original remains anywhere in the frame. This matters because, with a vague setup, background people often keep their original faces.
The result is one clear main person in front of a dim, anonymous crowd. It is also why we ask for one adult in the photo and not a group.
Can I post it with the song?
The finished MP4 comes with 15 seconds of the song lined up with the moves, and it has no watermark. The recording is Drake's, so posting it carries the usual music rights risk. A platform may mute or flag it. If that happens, add a licensed sound from the platform's own library.
Label the clip as AI-generated when you post, and check that the sound plays on the platform before you share it widely. Use your own photo or one you have permission to use, and do not use the video to impersonate anyone. videosi is independent and not affiliated with Drake.
What does a try cost?
A 15-second Standard 720p video is 13 credits, and the first video on an account never costs more than 10. Credit packs start at $6.99 for 10 credits and do not expire, and plans start at $29.90 a month. Better models cost more, and a failed render returns its credits.
Because each render takes several minutes and uses credits, it pays to get the photo right before you press Generate. You can start from the Solar Eclipse Drake AI page, choose 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9, and the club and prompt are already built in.
What goes wrong most often?
Four things come up again and again:
- The hand pushed toward the lens is where extra fingers and warped palms can appear.
- Likeness can drift when a hand passes the camera or the head turns sideways.
- Blue light from the wall can tint skin and hide face detail.
- A weak photo, such as a cropped face or heavy shadow, gives the weakest likeness.
Likeness is not guaranteed, so treat the first render as a test. A sharper, evenly lit photo is the most reliable fix, and it costs nothing to retake before you try again.
