The Perfect LUV Tape

The Perfect LUV Tape is the fourth mixtape by American rapper Lil Uzi Vert.

The mixtape is considered a spiritual successor to Lil Uzi Vert vs. the World as it retains subtle references to the mixtape, as well as the graphic novel series Scott Pilgrim, on its cover art. The cover art was created by Eryck Sakutaro. The song "Do What I Want" has been featured in the soundtrack for the video game "NBA 2K18".
