The rapper Lil Uzi Vert is showing off an expensive diamond on his forehead. The unusual facial accessory is perfectly addressed by the Twitter account of Diablo , bringing many players to laughter.
What’s with the diamond? The US rapper Lil Uzi Vert has already achieved some success with his songs and albums, receiving double platinum for two singles in 2016 and reaching number 2 on the US charts with his latest album Pluto x Baby Pluto. He has now attracted attention on the internet because he implanted a pink diamond into his forehead.
The diamond is said to be worth 24 million dollars. “He has 10, almost 11 carats,” the rapper reveals on Twitter.
In another tweet , he explains that the stone would be worth more than all his cars (including Bugatti) and his house combined.
It’s clear that he stands out with such an expensive and unusual facial accessory. A video showcasing the forehead gem received a brilliant reaction from the Twitter account of Diablo 3, and many gamers celebrated the tweet.
The red soulstone!
This is what Diablo says: A video on Twitter showing Lil Uzi Vert with his stone in his forehead is commented on by Diablo as follows:
“GIVE BACK THE RED SOULSTONE, MORTAL. YOU CANNOT STOP THE LORD OF TERROR.”
What’s behind this? For those who are not quite familiar with the story of Diablo and do not understand what the tweet means, here’s a short explanation. The red soulstone that Diablo refers to is the gem on the rapper’s forehead.
In the world of Diablo, soulstones are artifacts that hold powerful beings. The blue soulstone contains Mephisto, and the yellow one holds Baal. Diablo, the Lord of Terror, is captured in the red soulstone.
In the lore of Diablo 3, we learn what the soulstone in the forehead has to do with:
In Diablo III it is revealed for the first time that Adria is Leah’s mother, conceived by Aidan after he had defeated Diablo and the soulstone was burned into his forehead.

With the red soulstone diamond in his forehead, the rapper fits perfectly into the lore of Diablo. Does Lil Uzi Vert now serve as a vessel for the Prime Evil? Hopefully not.
