Akademiks Claims Lil Uzi Vert’s “Real Album” Is Coming Soon


I knew something was off about that damn album.

One of the more puzzling moments in hip-hop this year was the release of Lil Uzi Vert’s Eternal Atake 2. Uzi is typically known for crafting solid projects, but this album felt disjointed, rushed, and slightly off-kilter. Even the promotional rollout raised eyebrows, featuring a strange teaser video styled like a rogue 1970s TV game show.

Speculation swirled that Eternal Atake 2 was merely a contractual obligation to fulfill Uzi’s deal with Atlantic Records, potentially explaining its lack of cohesion and polish. DJ Akademiks later claimed that this wasn’t Uzi’s “real album” and hinted that a more refined and impactful project is on the way, promising it will set the bar much higher.



I wouldn’t be surprised if this type of situation happens more often than fans realize. Do I like it? Not really. However, for artists to create their best work, they need the freedom to express themselves without feeling boxed in. If Atlantic was limiting Uzi creatively, I can’t blame him for wanting out. Sometimes, you have to prioritize your artistry over pleasing a label. That said, Uzi’s next album has to hit harder than that Mac and Cheese from Thanksgiving a few days ago.
