#Lil uzi eternal atake album cover custom full
He dropped two enthralling singles – “Futsal Shuffle 2020” and “That Way” – that all but supplemented his ever-increasing and unmistakably signature singles catalog he led a Kanye-esque Twitter saga where he teased this release more than he had ever done in the past (and that is indeed saying something) he even went full ARG-mode and let the fans dictate certain aspects of the album’s release, such as letting them vote on the final album cover out of three different designs by three different artists. Uzi sprinted into 2020 guns absolutely blazing. And somehow, someway, the hip-hop world found itself finally subjected to this enigma of an album (a week earlier than originally intended, believe it or not). These delays ranged from label disputes, concept changes, and even Uzi’s at one point shocking “retirement” at the dawn of 2019. Month by month and year by year, Uzi continued to tease the simple idea of this album dropping yet with each and every announcement made, they were each proceeded by a respective delay. To say that this project – even by name alone, mind you – has held nothing less than the tightest of vice grips over the hip-hop world is arguably the biggest understatement any contemporary music fan could ever make. This anecdote is being presented for an immensely important reason right now, as not too dissimilar to the likes of The Life of Pablo by Kanye West and Frank Ocean’s Blonde, the release of Lil Uzi Vert’s Eternal Atake entails everything that this scenario represents from a critical standpoint. This suspense places such an unruly amount of weight and influence on that very project once it finally drops, that it can convincingly cloud even the most stoic of critics’ first impression upon hearing it. There is nothing, absolutely nothing like finally receiving an album that has been teased, built up, and/or repeatedly delayed for a ridiculously substantial amount of time.
