Although Lil Uzi Vert released Eternal Atake 2 in November, fans are already eager for more music. On December 29, a fan commented on Uzi’s Instagram, “Twin, drop some music [tear-drop face emoji].” Uzi replied in his typical fashion, “K. I love y’all a lot [white heart emoji],” sparking mixed reactions online.
Some fans criticized the request, with one user saying, “Asking for new music when he just dropped an entire album is so damn greedy omg lmao.” Others defended Uzi, arguing, “EA2 got undeserved hate and that shi just dropped. Let it breathe.” Comparisons to Playboi Carti’s slower release schedule also emerged, with one fan noting, “Uzi saving the year bc Carti wanna be mysterious.”
While Eternal Atake 2 has received praise from loyal fans, it has struggled to match the impact of its predecessor. One standout moment on the album is “The Rush,” featuring a cameo from Big Time Rush, where the boy band humorously tells Uzi, “Dude, you’re not Big Time Rush.” Despite such highlights, some listeners feel the album lacks the interstellar vibe of the original, sparking debates about Uzi’s evolving style and whether longtime fans are moving on.
In related news, Uzi’s girlfriend JT debuted her album City Cinderella in 2024, supported by a tour. The album includes features from Jeezy, DJ Khaled, Stunna Girl, and CLIP. Fans continue to hope for a collaboration between Lil Uzi Vert and JT, a long-standing request since their relationship began.
