Overview

Lil Uzi Vert is a rapper from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Luv Is Rage 1.5 is hip hop with more serious singing than most of his music. He is a strange artist. He is very suburban friendly with a hood focus. He collabs almost exclusively with mainstream classic rap artists but all of his songs are designed with equality building complexity.
Defining Track
XO Tour LLif3 is a song about the unfulfilling side of success. The premise is the strain his indifference is putting on the women closest to him. It's a little abstract and he jumps around a bit but the vocals are pretty good.
Final Thoughts
Lil Uzi Vert is cool but his music isn't really the focal point of his hype. It's frustrating to listen to an artist so deeply submerged in the business side of his career try to approach emotion and ethics. Drake's hardest songs have more emotional range than Lil Uzi.
