XXXTentacion Estate has released a new song called “I’m Not Human” featuring Lil Uzi Vert.
The song was released yesterday (January 23) on the day when the rapper would have turned 25. “A gift from Ja… Thank you,” says XXXTentacion (real name Jasey Onfroy) in an Instagram post.
The gentle acoustic ballad begins with a reference to Slipknot’s 2008 song “Snuff” from “All Hope Is Gone”: “Bury all your secrets in my skin / Go away with innocence and leave me with my sins.”
“Pain will come, I won’t cry / Leave your heart aside / I’m not a man, I’m not a man,” XXXTentacion sings before Lil Uzi Vert joins in the second verse.
Listen to the track below.
Back in November 2021, Lil Uzi Vert admitted during a fan Q&A that the idea of working on a posthumous track with the late rapper seemed “really strange.”
“Yes, I would like to write a song with him, but I feel very strange about such things. Don’t get me wrong, it took me a very long time to do this with another artist. I’m really weird because I understand that they don’t live here, and what if this isn’t the vision they really want? Especially if they really fucked me. What if it’s all wrong, I’d be angry if they did everything wrong and I’m not here. But you know, if it works, it will work,” he said.

XXXTentacion was shot dead in 2018 as he was leaving a motorcycle shop in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, when he was 20 years old.
Last year, a new film, “Look at Me: XXXTentacion,” directed by Sabah Folayan, was released, which details the turbulent life of the late controversial rapper.
It tells the story from his troubled childhood spent in South Florida to his sudden rise in the music industry — detailing allegations of domestic violence leveled against him by ex—girlfriend Geneva Ayala in 2016 -and his death in 2018 during an apparent robbery.
