When will Lil Uzi Vert drop ‘Pink Tape’? Rapper was quick to delete hint on Instagram

The 26-year-old rapper’s new mixtape is a follow-up to his second album ‘Eternal Atake’ that was released in March 2020

Fans of Lil Uzi Vert went berserk on Thanksgiving Day after the rapper dropped a subtle hint about his new mixtape, aptly called the ‘Pik Tape’ on Instagram but deleted it soon after. Since then, hip-hop fans on social media platforms have bombarded the Philadelphia native with questions about the release date and tracklist of the highly-anticipated mixtape. Lil Uzi Vert enjoys close to 16 million followers on Instagram and so him dropping a cryptic hint and then deleting it has left fans beyond curious.

Lil Uzi Vert had dropped a single called ‘Demon High’ in the last week of October, just so fans would have an easier time being patient while he geared up for his new ambitious project. The track proved to be a perfect early Halloween gift for his fans as it caught the attention of music lovers despite other new releases in the same week. The 26-year-old rapper’s new mixtape is a follow-up to his second album ‘Eternal Atake’ which was released in March 2020. Uzi had announced his ‘Pink Tape’ during his Instagram Live session in December 2020.
