On Friday, stormy weather forced the cancellation of Lil Uzi Vert's Lollapalooza set. “Due to weather issues, Lil Uzi Vert will no longer be performing,” was festival’s Instagram statement, although an onstage announcement referenced “travel complications.” It was shaping up to be a major performance, especially as it coincided with the rapper's 31st birthday.
Despite the setback, Vert still made an appearance at the Chicago festival, surprising fans by crashing Major Lazer's set to perform "Just Wanna Rock." He also marked the occasion by surprise-releasing the EP Maverick "Almost Forever," his first project since 2024's Eternal Atake 2. It was ten years to the day since he released The Perfect LUV Tape.
