Lil Uzi Vert Unveils Birthday EP Maverick “Almost Forever”

Lil Uzi Vert marked their birthday with the surprise drop of the eight-track EP Maverick “Almost Forever,” now available on all platforms through Roc Nation Distribution. This marks the Philadelphia native’s first new music of 2026 and builds directly on the momentum of 2025’s ‘What You Saying’, a track that locked in No. 1 positions on Billboard’s Hot Rap Songs, R&B/Hip-Hop Streaming Songs, and Rap Streaming Songs charts. The accompanying video, which premiered via Vogue, pulled in appearances from Adriana Lima, Law Roach, Lola Leon, Marc Jacobs, and Martin from Slushy Noobz, eventually clearing 33 million views. The project also lands after the rollout of Uzi’s own label Cor(e), a fan-centered setup built around exclusive content, experiences, and direct community interaction.

The EP’s tracklist includes ‘London’, a cut Uzi first played out during a headlining set at Lyrical Lemonade’s Summer Smash earlier in the summer. That same track sits among the eight songs that make up the full release, which arrives on the exact day Uzi is set to take the stage at Lollapalooza 2026 in Chicago.

Cor(e) positions the EP as more than a standard rollout, framing it as the first major release under a label designed to keep fans closer to the process. With ‘What You Saying’ still holding space from the previous year and the new project hitting platforms the same day as a major festival appearance, Lil Uzi Vert keeps the focus on his ever growing career, refusing to take a back seat in the industry.
