Future and Lil Uzi Vert are about to release… something. The “Too Much Sauce” duo have been teasing a collaboration between them for the past several months, putting out bread crumbs such as their double release of singles “Over Your Head” and “Patek.” Their fans believe they’re working on a joint mixtape but their moods were dampened when the project didn’t materialize on its rumored release date.
Now, however, it appears as if those fans’ thirst for this release may be quenched in some fashion this Friday. Both Uzi and Future shared an intriguing trailer for what appears to be a Hype Williams-directed music video. Whether that video will be for one of their previously released singles or accompany a full project remains to be seen. Both artists love to build hype while remaining as mysterious as possible — see Uzi’s out-of-the-blue drop for the deluxe version of Eternal Atake or Future’s Drake-featuring “Life Is Good” video from way back in the pre-COVID times.
The two rappers had already released the video for “Wassup” in May, so it’s likely they do have more songs recorded. We’ll have to wait a few hours to find out what they’re serving up next.
Lil Uzi Vert is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

MIVA unveils a soft texture with an unexpected grit on latest release “Do You”
“Do You,” an alternative R&B track, evokes a compelling sense of motion, MIVA, one that finds itself comfortably between familiar textures and surprising production choices. The Montreal-based artist, producer, songwriter, and visual artist considers music part of a larger world where sound, fashion, and cinematic storytelling converge.
The production doesn’t want to stay still, not least through the saxophone, which gradually mutates into something like an electric guitar. It’s an odd detail that gives the arrangement an evolving character without detracting from its alternative R&B foundation. Vocal fry adds an unexpected metal influence to the track, adding some grit and tension below the softer textures.
MIVA allows different influences to coexist in the same space rather than being defined by a single, obvious musical direction. The result is a very identity-driven track, with a hypnotic rhythm, expressive vocals, and production choices that keep the listener on their toes throughout. “Do You” is a showcase of MIVA as an artist who is unafraid to explore the space between softness and intensity, offering an alternative R&B experience with its own character.
