Pink Tape Trailer:
The trailer opens with an anime version of themself being attacked by a villain that removes a $24 million pink diamond they infamously got implanted in their forehead several years ago. (The diamond seems to contain special powers.)
The artist rides on a futuristic, Marvel-esque motorcycle before riding to a mysterious castle where they fight off a knight with a sword and make their way through the place — decorated in hot pink — as they attempt to capture their stolen pink diamond via a one-sided dance battle.
The four-minute video ends with Lil Uzi Vert shooting the villain and retrieving the lost pink stone, before placing it back on their forehead and retrieving its powers.
