Once again, Lil Uzi Vert has been chosen as the face of a new chapter in Marc Jacobs‘ story. This week, Uzi, set to perform at Summerfest in Milwaukee, appeared in a campaign supporting the label’s latest creation, the Stephen Sprouse medium tote. The limited-edition bag, priced at $550, sold out quickly, marking a full-circle moment in Sprouse’s luxury-meets-punk legacy.
Devoted fans of Uzi will recall his previous collaborations with Jacobs. Earlier this year, they partnered for a 40th-anniversary campaign, and back in 2022, they worked together for a Spring/Summer campaign. Their partnership has been notable for its innovative and boundary-pushing approach, blending Uzi’s unique style with Jacobs’ iconic aesthetic.
As Uzi’s album “Pink Tape” approaches its one-year anniversary, the rapper’s future projects remain uncertain. Uzi teased potential releases like “Barter 16” and “Luv Is Rage 3,” with the latter possibly marking his final album. Despite the uncertainty, his collaboration with Marc Jacobs continues to be a significant aspect of his career.
“After Luv Is Rage 3, I guess I will go on another tour. But after that, I wanna try to live a normal life,” Uzi revealed to fans last October. As Uzi’s career evolves, their collaborations with Marc Jacobs serve as a testament to their influence beyond music, marking a seamless blend of fashion and culture.
