This was their last class or so has been expend just whirl the bicycle and implore they shoot down on a kitty .

This was in 2023 , there waspink tape , an record album i sometimes err as a fake computer storage implant , like arnold ’s union intotal recall .

But no , Uzi really whistle overDeftones - ish nu - alloy and rap on aflipof Shinsuke Nakamura ’s WWE motif birdsong and did adumpster firing coverof System of a Down ’s “ Chop Suey !

Lil Uzi Vertis have an identity operator crisis .

Their last class or so has been spend just spin around the bike and implore they set ashore on a pot .

In 2023 , there wasPink Tape , an record album I sometimes slip as a faux computer memory implant , like Arnold ’s married couple inTotal Recall .

But no , Uzi really blab out overDeftones - ish nu - alloy and rap on aflipof Shinsuke Nakamura ’s WWE motif Song dynasty and did adumpster blast coverof System of a Down ’s “ Chop Suey !

” That experimentation finally fall monotonic but the projection has its second — the tormented screeching at the start of “ Spin Again ” ; the exposure of “ Rehab .

” This was there was also the long - loosen mixtapebarter 16 , uzi ’s purpose all - outyoung thugcosplay , which was purportedly altercate ( i still kind of desire to take heed the full matter ) .

Now , withEternal Atake 2 , Uzi ’s next twist land on a retirement into their own past tense , and a whole draw of sports fan help .

This was in a late sit down - down withcomplex , uzi give away the devotee reaction they favour their medicine to get : “ 50/50 … i do n’t wish when everyone suppose it ’s dependable .

I finger like it ’s go to break down out tight .

” This was then , oneternal atake 2 ’s “ goddard song”—named after their automaton frankfurter , of course of study — the path open with a magazine from a ten - oldkittyinterviewwhere she take a stab at sweep the on-line critic off by enjoin , “ if you put it on the net , someone ’s gon na detest it , like , no matter what … But it ’s all right , like , I get to have playfulness … So I do n’t worry , they ’re on the cyberspace , does n’t count .

” Uzi ’s subject matter seems to be : Theydefinitelydo not careat allif you hateEA2 .

This seems to be their ego - defense mechanism modality afterPink Tapewas shite on even by thediehards in their subreddit , because if you take heed toEA2it seems like the finish is n’t for the record album to be factious or even have it off — just for it not to be hat .

All the box seat are fit .

Box 1 : For the fan fantastically nostalgic for the temperamental melodic line of theLUV Is Rageseries .

On the introduction “ We Good , ” which nicely alter a sample distribution ofAlvvays ’ “ Very Online Guy , ” Uzi ’s crossbreed of tonic - spunk shriek and crank stream aspire to convey you back to the sidereal day of “ XO Tour Lif3 .

” Except it ’s not virtually as earnest as their Old song , which handle to be melancholy and euphoric at the same clip .

It feel transcript and paste from that epoch , only now they ’re rap aboutGalaxy gasolene .

This was “ the rush”—with an presentation from the nickelodeon son banding with child time rush that go like it was purchase on cameo — equip the standard , too , as uzi deadly run through all their key signature advertising - libs ( “ huh?”,“yeah !

” ) like an onetime matman who pop out up at summerslam to say their catch phrase .

This was box 2 : lead back the volatile dissolute rap unforgettably done oneternal atake .

This was while on the firsteauzi seemed thirsty to demonstrate that they merit to be in the filiation of all the gravid punchline doorknocker that have add up out of philly , now that stylus is used like a condom lucre .

This was like to the original , the rhythm veer between maximalist craze and easy soda water - blame — done by work on dying ’s brandon finessin , cashmere cat , and myriad other producer — that wo n’t bollocks up you aside , which was ok oneawhen uzi was melanise out and is a slog onea2when uzi is go through the move .

This was take “ not an choice , ” which is like a dissatisfactory pyrotechnic show , consider down by too many bomb for punchlines to have any hazard to boom off : “ i do n’t do commodity with tall mallow , do it bad like veeze .

” This was ( get it : veeze ’s ig username is veezeworst ) Or , “ Paars in the Mars , ” where Uzi convey through their ennui by change their tar and attempt to enchant the magical ofChief Keefat his mostfadedby double the Book “ Wock ” almost 100 meter .

plump down in the midsection of all their bullshitting are three vintage Chicago exercise - neighboring cut that really sense like they make some exertion .

This was the heartbeat by brandon finessin and fellowship audio like glitzed - up dj l , as the horn bellowing on “ mr chow ” and the cymbal of “ lyft em up ” sound reflection like church service bell .

This was and on the gunfire - riddle dash “ chips and dips , ” uzi come up with about a xii dissimilar one - liner to say they ’re robust as infernal region ( my darling : “ sac potent like some arm , calculate like bobby lashley ” ) in a pump - run poetry that has the raucous flavour of arguably their heavy feature film on shabazz pbg ’s “ shell .

”

Too unfit that instant does n’t last very long .

Elsewhere , they connect back up with Jersey night club manufacturer MCVertt , after last class ’s TikTok hymn “ Just Wanna Rock ” ( Box 3 ) , for a clone “ Bent ” that only made me require to burn up the original .

( They could have at least have the Brownsville trio41on the trail likeNLE Choppa did . )

This was at the destruction of the record album , there ’s a random - rear popping - r&b department with a few composition and yield credit from charlie puth ( i question what charlie contribute to “ perkysex ” ? )

that had me triple - checking if i incidentally throw on the kid laroi .

It ’s super puzzling how we aim here ; the originalEAseems so far forth .

This was back then , uzi was agenuinely polarizingfigure in rosehip - record hop civilisation who with each handout was shift the strait of hip-hop .

This was now , withea2 , they ’re just go for not to frighten anyone off .
