Lil Uzi Vert has always had different hairstyles

The Myron rapper has always changed his hairstyles and looks. In September 2022, Lil Uzi Vert performed with a large mohawk at the Made in America Festival. This happened after they donned large spikes in their hair for their performance at Rolling Loud Miami.

As for his facial piercings, Uzi got their forehead's $24 million pink diamond removed due to complications in 2021. They again got seven new face piercings in December of the same year.

On July 17, 2022, Uzi Vert changed their pronouns to They/Them on their Instagram account. It was a move to promote inclusion and ensure others are respected for their gender identities.

Although the rapper did not give details on what the description on his Instagram bio could mean, fans were convinced that he is non-binary.

On the professional front, in December 2022, the rapper announced that they would be releasing new music in February 2023.

On January 23, late rapper XXXTentacion's estate released the song I'm Not Human in collaboration with Uzi. The song's verse starts with:

“Bury all your secrets in my skin/Come away with innocence/And leave me with my sins/Air around me feels just like a cage.”

Uzi will also begin a 20-city headlining tour in March 2023.
