Those who have heard the clip before have likened Uzi’s teased track to Lil Wayne stylistically speaking, and judging by the legend of Lil Uzi Vert, maybe that was his plan from the start. “HYFR [bat emoji] [coffin emoji] [star emoji] [fire emoji] TuN3 $ “, the Luv is the rage the artist wrote under his since deleted post.

Further down in the caption, Uzi also teases the “Pink Tape”. He previously said that the title of his next project would be The real Uzi 2, but maybe the Philadelphia rapper completely changed the subject and started working on another project. Either way, listen to the quickly released and deleted Lil Uzi Vert snippet below.

As previously mentioned, many fans listening to Uzi’s preview immediately noticed that the Philadelphia rapper looked like Lil Wayne. Here are some of their reactions to the audio clip of the comments.
