A release date for Lil Uzi Vert’s highly-anticipated Pink Tape album has officially been announced.

Uzi announced that their forthcoming project is scheduled to release on June 30 and arrives with a trailer helmed by Gibson Hazard. The four-minute visual is a mixture of live-action and anime, with the artist as the main character, and sees an anime version of Uzi battle against an enemy who pulls off their famous $24 million USD forehead diamond and sends them into the live-action world. They end up on the streets of an Uzi-fied Tokyo (which also features a billboard for their world tour) and go on a journey to reclaim the diamond from the enemy, ending with an outro similar to anime shows.

Pink Tape has been in the works as early as 2020 when they announced it during an Instagram Live session. The next few years heard Uzi give mild updates on the project, but it wasn’t until earlier this month did they confirm a release window.

Watch the full trailer above. Lil Uzi Vert’s Pink Tape drops June 30.

Elsewhere in music, Doja Cat has announced her first North American arena tour.
