JT Corrects Herself In A Tweet Regarding Lil Uzi Vert Changes Pronouns From “He’s” To “They”

Recently Lil Uzi Vert took to Instagram to change his pronouns to “they/them.” It’s clear that his long-time girlfriend, city girl member JT, is riding with them. The City Girl rapper quoted a tweet on Wednesday, July, 21st correcting herself referring to Uzi as “They.”

According to Hot New Hip Hop, JT took to Twitter to make a joke about her man Lil Uzi, saying, “My man said all I do is get my nails & lashes done, damn he’s catching on ….who’s hiring?” She then later came back, quoting her tweet to correct herself adding, “THEY*.”

Twitter has mixed reactions toward Uzi’s choice of pronouns.

About a week ago, on July 16th, Uzi dropped a single called “Space Cadet.” The release lead to a surprise that shocked many fans as he changed his pronouns on Instagram to “they/them.” Since the “20 Min” rapper’s transition, Twitter has had mixed reactions towards the change. User @TanukiGirlMichi tweeted “lil uzi put a gem in their forehead and then started using they/them pronouns that mf is actually a steven universe character.” Another user @SoulDrainer_ stated, “Lil uzi fans getting mad at them being nonbinary funny as fuck cause how can u even look at uzi and not immediately know they’re some form of lgbt” @femmetanyl even said, “lil uzi use they/them pronouns now you’ll see a whole wave of young men be more respectful of pronouns fr thank u uzi.”

Lil Uzi Vert Dropping ‘Red & White’ EP Before Next Album

Fans have been awaiting Lil Uzi Vert’s upcoming album “The Pink Tapesince he announced it last summer. According to the Philadelphia native on Instagram, we’ll be getting an EP before the release of his next album titled “Red & White“. The title is an obvious reference to The Pink Tape & should probably be arriving sooner than later this year. His post from yesterday, July 12th, features cover art of old men in a room full of Uzi-themed paintings. Some fans have speculated that this unexpected announcement could mean that the EP will be available as soon as this week. Take a look at the potential cover art below:

 

Lil Uzi Vert’s Recent Performance Controversy

We’re excited about Uzi’s upcoming release just like everyone else, but not all news about him has been positive recently. During a performance at Wireless Festival earlier this month, the rapper accidentally injured a fan in the crowd with a cellphone he threw into the crowd. While that may sound malicious, it was actually in an attempt to clear the festival stage of phones that the crowd threw at him mid-performance. Luckily, the fan received medical attention & it was very clearly an unintentional mistake.

 

Expectations For The EP & Album

Lil Uzi Vert is read hot right & keeps putting on stellar performances this year. While he wasn’t able to tour his last album Eternal Atake, there should be no safety regulations preventing Uzi from touring his new music. Additionally, The Pink Tape should sell pretty well based on his previous first-week sales numbers. Eternal Atake sold 288,000 units in its first week & his debut album Luv Is Rage 2 sold 135,000 units in its first week. How much do you think Lil Uzi Vert will be able to sell with The Pink Tape? And who would you like to see him go on tour with? Read more of FM Hip-Hop’s featured articles today.
