Starting point is 00:00:00 Getting back into the dynamic of Little Uzi Verk, Destroyed Lonely, and Ken Carson, this track, which is track number 12, off of the album that's out now in all DSPs, called A Great Chaos. This specific track, though, is called Like This. So, I haven't listened to the track yet. If I'm looking at the lyrics, you can tell that they're getting into the repeating bag with, you know, saying the same word over and over and over, which obviously can fit their type of music style, right?
Starting point is 00:00:33 I'm just wondering, what is Little UziVirt doing behind the scenes that he's co-signing Ken Carson Destroyed Lonely so heavily in public? You know, it's almost to the point of, and I'm going to keep repeating this because I really think this is happening. I feel like Little UziVert is going to create some type of major label and try to sign these type of artists. because business-wise, it doesn't make sense to invest in something so heavily
Starting point is 00:00:59 when you don't have any recoup from it. Like, obviously, you can do something off the love, right? Uzi could just love Ken Carson destroy lonely just off the fact that they make good music. Or what I'm thinking is some type of financial aspect that he gets money, that, I forget, I completely blanked on what I was just about to say. There's a financial aspect to where he benefits from, right?
Starting point is 00:01:31 That's what I'm thinking with King Carson. Because what Ken Carson set to go on tour with Playboy Cardi, with his last album, X, getting covered by complex, pitchfork, hip-hop DX, and debuting on the Billboard 200, not saying that he does the biggest numbers, but King Carson is no slouch, right? So Louis Iuzeevert is not like bringing some nobody and giving him shine. But what I do want to highlight is the amount of shine that he keeps putting on him almost as if he's trying to sign him eventually when he makes his own major label.
Starting point is 00:02:02 Because if little Uzi-Virt created a major label, I believe he could get some of the hottest young artists to sign to him. Because I just believe once you achieve a certain amount in the game, especially when it comes to R IAA certification, like UziVirt with I Just Want to Rock and with, I think it was bad and bougie Which he made one of Migo's most successful tracks of all time With him being so pivotal
Starting point is 00:02:36 To success in the music industry I could see every hot artist Trying to sign to him Which is what a lot of different artists do With Toy Lanes, you have the umbrella With Drake you have OVO With The Weekend, you have Exo With Kanye West you have good music
Starting point is 00:02:54 like artists make their own major labels all the time well i say major make the own labels all the time specifically because it's so hard in this industry to pinpoint who's going to blow up but one of the more consistent variables in hip-hop is the cosine before the blow up Drake it was little Wayne um biggie and diddy came up together basically uh 50 cent it was emm cosign Eminem it was the dr drake cosine um Dr. Drake cosign a lot of people, but what else? You had, I think, did Dr. J. Cosson, Tupac?
Starting point is 00:03:36 Or am I tripping? I think he did. I don't know why I'm blanking on that. Basically, I say all that to say, oh, and of course, Nicky Minaj, the Lil Wayne co-sign. And the little Wayne with the whole Birdman co-signed as far as Monday night quarterbacking the entire operation. So I say that to say this.
Starting point is 00:03:56 I don't think there's no I don't think it's just out of the blue that Lil Uzi Verk is popping up Destroy Lonely and Ken Carson like this Nope, unintended
Starting point is 00:04:07 So that being said Click my link to you in my bio Let me know in one of my social medias What do you think about the specific track Between Little Uzi Destroy Lonely and Ken Carson titled like this And do you think it's fire
Starting point is 00:04:19 Or trash And also Do you think Lil Uzi is giving so much love the King Carson destroyed Lonely in the hopes of ultimately signing them to his label. He eventually creates one.
