Lil Uzi Vert surprised fans with a new EP, 'Maverick Almost Forever', just hours after their scheduled Lollapalooza performance was cancelled over the weekend. The Philadelphia rapper's set, planned for Friday, July 31, was scrapped due to severe weather issues that affected several other performances at the Chicago event.
Despite the cancellation, Lil Uzi Vert made an appearance at the festival, joining Major Lazer on Perry's Stage to perform their 2022 track 'Just Wanna Rock'. The surprise EP marks their first project since 2024's 'Eternal Atake 2' and was released on their 31st birthday, 10 years after 'The Perfect LUV Tape'.
