The Perfect LUV Tape is the fourth mixtape by American rapper and singer Lil Uzi Vert. It was released through Generation Now and Atlantic Records on July 31, 2016.[1] The mixtape features guest appearances from American rappers Playboi Carti, Offset, and Future. The mixtape's production was handled by Don Cannon, DJ Drama, Cubeatz, Maaly Raw, Metro Boomin, Zaytoven, Nard & B, and among others. The mixtape is considered a spiritual successor to Lil Uzi Vert vs. the World (2016) 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".

The album was supported by two singles, "Seven Millions" and "Erase Your Social". The Perfect LUV Tape received mostly positive reviews from critics, debuting at number 55 on the US Billboard 200. In February 2018, the mixtape was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for combined sales, streaming, and track-sale equivalents of 500,000 units.[2]
