Lil Uzi Vert teases 'Eternal Atake' album with cover art full of Heaven's Gate cult imagery

Lil Uzi Vert also changed his profile picture on Instagram to a screenshot of Marshall Applewhite, the founder of Heaven's Gate, a cult whose members committed mass suicide in 1997

Lil Uzi Vert has been teasing the phrase 'Eternal Atake' all summer, and fans have speculated that it's the title of a follow-up project to his debut album 'Luv Is Rage 2'. On Tuesday (July 31), the rapper wiped all his posts from Instagram, leaving just two posts: one with his viral dance routine from June and the other featuring possible cover art for 'Eternal Atake'.

The album art is set against a colorful cosmic background with art-style that's reminiscent of typical tacky late 90s websites and has the words 'Eternal Atake', with 'Atake' appearing inside a keyhole. As fans were quick to notice, oddly enough, the imagery is a blatant reference to the logo of Heaven's Gate, the infamous Californian cult that participated in a mass suicide in 1997 believing that a UFO would come to liberate their souls.
