Lil Uzi Vert has some recommendation for his or her social media followers: by no means fall in love.
That’s what they instructed followers on Instagram on Wednesday (September 27), when the rapper posted a teaser for an upcoming music video to the platform.
The track, Uzi mentioned, can be known as “NFL” or “By no means Fall In Luv.” A video is “on the best way.”
The IG submit confirmed what seem like stills of the upcoming video and a brief, soundless video of what seems to be like somebody modifying the clip. A snippet of the monitor surfaced on-line simply hours after Uzi made his submit.
The announcement of “NFL”‘s impending launch comes just some weeks after Uzi put out their Pink Tape: Boss Battle EP. Their subsequent introduced full challenge is the Barter 16 mixtape. The rapper just lately instructed followers that the challenge could be launched by the third week of September, however that deadline got here and went.
The unreleased challenge has confronted some issues. In August, a number of Barter 16 tracks have been leaked on-line of their entirety.
Uzi’s final studio album, June’s Pink Tape, was reviewed by HipHopDX’s Isaac Fontes, who gave it a 3.1 out of 5.
“Pink Tape proves as soon as once more that the strain ends in a sprawling, unfocused providing from an artist who evidently possesses the potential to ship attractive music, however struggles to bundle it collectively,” Fontes wrote. “[O]nly a portion of Pink Tape is profitable in proving Uzi’s potential because the groundbreaking artist they got down to be.”
“Throughout Pink Tape’s 26 tracks, Uzi pulls from a big selection of influences, together with nu-metal (“CS”), rage (“Aye”), futuristic entice (“Suicide Doorways”) and even pop (“Countless Style,” “Mama, I’m Sorry”), however the result’s an overwhelmingly sprawling providing that lacks cohesion and construction,” Fontes continued, calling it a “bloated providing from one in all Hip Hop’s most complex but formidable firestarters.”
