Fans quickly pointed out two of the EP’s tracks feature guest appearances from Lil Uzi Vert. Uzi and Yeat’s chemistry has already proven to be high after the two joined forces for “Big Tonka” and “3G” from Yeat’s 2 Alivë (Geëk Pack) in April, a deluxe edition of the original 2 Alivë featuring nine new songs.
The original 2 Alivë dropped in February with guest verses from Gunna, Young Thug, Ken Car$on, SeptembersRich, Lancey Foux and more. The album sold roughly 35,000 total album-equivalent units in its first week and debuted at No. 6 on the Billboard 200.
Yeat Song Appears In Nike Ad For Dick’s Sporting Goods
Yeat’s time in the spotlight is starting to shift towards mainstream recognition, too. In May, his “Turban” single was featured in a Nike ad for Dick’s Sporting Goods. The company revealed it can be connected to anyone’s Nike’s membership to unlock exclusive rewards and other perks, an interesting twist considering Yeat’s penchant for rapping about drugs.
Additionally, Drake is firmly behind the Portland rapper. After the two were spotted last year together in Houston, Drake doubled up on the love by gifting him a pair of Nike Nocta’s in March.
