It seems that rollout season might really be upon us. Like a Batman signal to the sky, Lil Uzi Vert has returned to the scene when we all needed him most. While rumors of Eternal Atake 2 have been swirling for months, a teaser of what’s to come finally dropped on October 23—with no features from Uzi at all.
Uzi the Earthling is in his ‘Eternal Atake 2’ era
The track “Uzi the Earthling! (TV Show Theme)” is reminiscent of theme songs like The Jetsons or The Flintstones. While the track discussed his style and how “he is the one to see,” it didn’t mention anything about EA2. However, fans began noticing that the logo from the theme song was now covering every album on Uzi’s Apple Music page.
Besides the new song and updated album covers, Uzi remained silent until hours later.
He dropped the album cover for EA2 with his official return to social media after months of being off the grid. With a scheduled release date of November 1, Uzi also dropped the out-of-this-world album trailer.
The theories have already started rolling in about what this era means for Uzi and the symbolism behind the cover and trailer.
“The Eternal Atake had approximately 15-20 minutes worth of “skit” material Uzi had to cut down to around a few minutes for the album…Could EA2 and the TV show along with it be Uzi’s original vision for the album? The TV show could go along with the album,” X user Lol (Uzi Vert) said in an October 23 post.
Regardless, the hip-hop community is just happy to have the new project drop and finally hear what Uzi has had in store this whole time.
