    Lil Uzi Vert's made some seriously outlandish purchases over the years, and he's now got his eye on a jetpack, which makes sense for someone that's previously outlined his fascination with space and beyond. 

    Speaking to Twitch streamer Trainwreck, Uzi outlined that his next purchase might be his most out-there yet - and for someone that's had a diamond implanted in their forehead, that's a serious claim.

    Uzi explains, "To be honest, I’ve been on some other shit. I’m trying to buy this jet pack, right? This is serious. It’s not about the money ’cause I think maybe after everything [it’s] 700 grand or 600 grand … The one I’m trying to get, you got to take a class for like a year, I think."

    If he's successful in buying a jetpack, it'd be true to form - he released the track Team Rocket back in 2016, a reference to the Pokémon anime villains.

    While Team Rocket were known for blasting off into space after they were defeated in battle, we're imagining that Lil Uzi Vert would want his jetpack use to be a little more controlled - hence his commitment to getting a license.
