Here comes Lil Uzi Vert with a worthy distraction from the coronavirus: The one-week-old Eternal Atake has already doubled in length.
A deluxe edition of the album arrived on streaming services Friday morning (March 13), with an entirely new second side, including guest spots from Future, Young Thug, Gunna, Lil Durk, Young Nudy, NAV, and Chief Keef, who produced “Chrome Heart Tags” on the standard edition of the album. “Myron,” the opener, has been floating around in snippet form for over a year. Collectively, the new tracks are being billed as a sequel to Uzi’s 2016 tape LUV vs. The World.
The past week also gave us new releases from Niall Horan, Blueface, Jay Electronica, Lil Yachty (plus Drake and DaBaby), and The Killers. Hear it all on this week’s First Stream Live podcast, below.
And why not enjoy some great music that didn’t make it into this week’s podcast, such as Dogleg’s blistering Melee, Porridge Radio’s lovely, intricate Every Bad, or Four Tet‘s pristine Sixteen Oceans? A whole world to explore, from the comfort of our fast-contracting apartments.
