They won't stop! This one's more of a rage-flavored cut harkening to his Yeat collabs.

They're just going to keep teasing us until it drops, but that doesn't make the slew of snippets any less exciting. Moreover, Lil Uzi Vert has been on an absolute social media rampage as of late, sharing more information and snippets their upcoming and highly anticipated album, The Pink Tape. While previous teases were more within the Philly star's established lane, this newest one shared via Instagram Live on Monday (June 19) is a bit different. Furthermore, it sounds like a more rage-inspired cut, not unlike collab tracks with Yeat like "Flawless," "3G," and "Big tonka." Regardless, it still contains some of what makes Uzi such a beloved artist.

For one, there's the strained and falsetto vocal delivery that they play with about halfway throughout the snippet. Lil Uzi Vert is known for often displaying unique vocals with fast, yet melodic flows. Even though this snippet is no different, what makes it stand out is its buzzy synths and compressed snares that give it a rage feel. Some fans might want Uzi to stick to their guns, but it's always exciting to see artists at least try to catch up with newer sounds.

Lil Uzi Vert's Latest Snippet

Of course, we doubt that the 27-year-old will have much difficulty riding a beat like that with ease by the time The Pink Tape drops. Regardless, in addition to these new snippets, Lil Uzi Vert gave us some details on the album. One of those is that they continued to hint at a possible feature from Playboi Carti, one of the most requested team-ups (or rather reunions) right now. "Not that many features but the features that everybody thinks I should have… basically, where I started at is where I'ma finish," they expressed on Instagram Live.

Meanwhile, they said that the album is less than two weeks away, meaning that it should come out at least on June 30. They also confirmed that a Ken Carson-produced cut will make the tracklist. Overall, fans can't wait to see what Uzi cooked up for them, and each new song adds to that excitement. For the latest updates and news on Lil Uzi Vert, stay logged into HNHH.
