Lil Uzi Vert‘s Grammy nomination has thrilled them to no end, and they’ve shared their excitement with their fans.
In an undated concert video which went viral on Monday (November 20), the Philadelphia native revealed that he’d been nominated for a Grammy, and thanked the audience for their support.

“I got nominated for a Grammy this year,” he told the audience, to loud cheers. “And I don’t really get nominated often, so this really means a lot to me.”
He then went into a performance of “Just Wanna Rock,” which was nominated for Best Rap Song at this year’s Grammys. Check it out below.
While Lil Uzi Vert was grateful for their Grammy nomination, they weren’t grateful for the recent Rolling Loud California 2024 mixup, where they were added to the lineup as a headliner, much to their surprise.
The popular festival rolled out an updated lineup on November 15, just one day after its initial announcement – and Uzi’s subsequent reaction to it.

“I never said I was doing rolling loud,” Uzi wrote after the lineup was first revealed, naming them as a headliner as well as Nicki Minaj and Post Malone. “Don’t understand why my name is on here @rollingloud.”
Now Future and Metro will hold down the big slot on night three of the festival in March – and they will apparently drop their previously-teased joint album before then, according to Rolling Loud.
“NEW ALBUM FUTURE x METRO BOOMIN BEFORE ROLLING LOUD,” they wrote in the comments of their new lineup announcement.
Scheduled to take place from March 15–17 at the Hollywood Park Grounds in Inglewood, the roster for next year’s Rolling Loud California is packed with all-stars.

In addition to the aforementioned names, the event will also feature heavyweights such as Big Sean, Don Toliver, YG & Tyga, Summer Walker and Sexyy Red, among countless others. Additionally, one of the late-evening spots on Saturday has been blurred out, and will most-likely be a last-minute surprise reveal.
Metro Boomin first confirmed the yet-to-be-named album with Future back in March, while still riding the wave of success from his Heroes & Villains album, which also features Future on tracks like “Too Many Nights” and “Superhero (Heroes & Villains).”

“Definitely. I would bet on it,” he said of the chances of the joint LP making landfall in the calendar year. “I would definitely bet on it.”
