In a since-deleted Instagram Story, Lil Uzi Vert posted a picture teasing their tracklist to their upcoming album Eternal Atake 2. Most of the songs were purposely obstructed by two Roc-A-Fella chains and a watch, but track 15 tentatively entitled “Chill Ebro” was not.
A few weeks back, footage surfaced of Hot 97 and Apple Music host Ebro Darden speaking on a panel in 2022 where the Philly rapper was brought up. “I love Uzi Vert. I feel like he still hasn’t become the rockstar he said he would become, though. I’m still waiting,” the Ebro said referring to their 2016 interview in which Uzi said they were a “rockstar” and refused to rap over older hip-hop beats.
“Maybe I took it literal, the rockstars that I know, they were selling out MetLife Stadium. They could sell out Madison Square Garden eight, 10 times. They got hits on the radio, everywhere. Songs is everywhere. He told me he was gonna become a rockstar… Most people that come up to me and talk to me about Uzi Vert now was probably like 10 years old at that time. They was tight, they was mad that I did that to Uzi Vert. Like I said before, time will tell. Adding, “Where you at, my guy? Uzi, where you at, bro? Didn’t he just retire, too? Wasn’t he just like, ‘Yo, I’m tired, I’m done.’ Come on, son. You supposed to be a rockstar. What happened?”
Uzi recently announced the sequel to their critically acclaimed album Eternal Atake which was released in 2020. They revealed the artwork, release date, and a trailer.
