Although Lil Uzι Vert is accustomed to playing the retirement card, it appears that this time they meаn it, judging from the earnest remarks the rapper made during a recent Pink Tape Tour stop in Chicago.

“I reached this conclusion not too long ago,” Uzι declares to the cheering crowd, who appear to be hoping for good news—like the release of Luv Is Rage 3 early. “I was going to wait until later to announce this, but I’m releasing Luv Is Rage 3 and it will be my last album,” the artist said.

“Soothe, it’s all right,” they reassure the disgruntled crowd. “I suppose I’ll embark on another tour for Luv Is Rage 3 following Luv Is Rage 3. After that, though, I’d like to attempt leading a typical life. I appreciate all of your help and your encouragement of my choice. This time, I’ll make sure to give it everything I’ve got for Luv Is Rage 3 because we need to continue the legacy. I’m grateful.

Uzι did not mention Barter 16’s release or follow up on their statements from the Chicago show.
