Lil Uzi Vert has always been known for their unique sound and style, but with their latest project, Eternal Atake 2, they have taken it back to their roots. The influential rapper recently sat down for an interview to discuss the inspiration behind the album, their love for their fans, and the importance of staying true to oneself.
When asked about the concept behind Eternal Atake 2, Lil Uzi Vert explained that it was a return to their original sound and style. They wanted to pay homage to their early days in the music industry and show their growth as an artist. “I wanted to go back to my roots and show my fans where I came from and how I’ve evolved as an artist,” they said.
One of the standout tracks on the album is a collaboration with the popular boy band, Big Time Rush. Lil Uzi Vert revealed that the unexpected collaboration came about after they ran into the band at a Guitar Center. “I was just browsing for some new equipment and I saw the guys from Big Time Rush. We started talking and they mentioned they were fans of my music. It was a no-brainer to have them on the album,” they shared.
But it’s not just chance encounters that show Lil Uzi Vert’s love for their fans. They also make a conscious effort to connect with them through their music. “I always try to make music that my fans can relate to and feel connected to. They are the reason I am where I am today and I never want to lose that connection,” they said.
In a music industry that can often be focused on image and trends, Lil Uzi Vert stays true to themselves and their art. They emphasized the importance of being honest with oneself and not conforming to fit a certain mold. “It’s important to stay true to who you are and not let anyone else dictate your art. I always try to be honest with myself and my fans through my music,” they stated.
Eternal Atake 2 is not just a return to Lil Uzi Vert’s roots, but also a testament to their growth and evolution as an artist. With their unique sound and unwavering authenticity, they continue to make a mark in the music industry and connect with fans on a deeper level. As they continue to push boundaries and break barriers, Lil Uzi Vert remains a force to be reckoned with in the world of hip hop.
