While Lil Uzi Vert teased parts of The Pink Tape in 2022, they seem to be sharing its full power sometime next month.
On Monday (Jan. 2), Uzi hopped on the r/liluzivert Reddit to chat it up with fans, as the Philly rapper sparred those who didn’t believe that their long-awaited album was coming this year. “Shit ain’t dropping,” an r/user posted. “If [you] don’t drop before [your] tour, [you’re] an idiot,” another commented.
Uzi quickly retorted with an eye-opening reply: “That’s why I’m dropping in February… new shit, new sound, no mid.”

Ahead of their 20-date headlining tour in March, it’s only fitting that Uzi’s seeing Pink in their immediate future. Set to kick off on March 3-5 at Rolling Loud Los Angeles, the remainder of the tour’s information will be unveiled “soon.” Pink Tape’s forthcoming release follows Uzi’s July teaser tape RED & WHITE as well as their instantly viral Jersey Club record “Just Wanna Rock” in November 2022.
It’s been nearly three years since Uzi’s last solo outing, as Eternal Atake and his collab album with Future, Pluto X Baby Pluto, have become newfound staples in their discography. It remains to be seen if “Just Wanna Rock,” “Demon High” or any of the tracks off RED & WHITE will appear on The Pink Tape.
Nevertheless, the Generation Now rockstar is streaking towards a big year ahead.
This story will be updated.
