Very unfortunate that all of this had to happen to Little Uzi Verk because Little UziVirt in his history with people leaking his music time and time again just brings up the ultimate point of how does music even leak in the first place? Because with technology nowadays, you would think there would be agencies set in place to track. down everybody whoever leaked music and give them some type of fine something so that they wouldn't do it again but with little uzivert it seems time and time again they keep illegally copying and distributing his music bootlegging if you want to go all the way back to the 90s 2000s if you want to go to the way that people i'm not gonna you know i'm not trying to be glad up here but you know there's a lot of sites, you know, shout out to LimeWire. I don't even know if to still up, but

that helped make copies accessible to people who may have not had the funds to purchase certain music. And then, of course, in the 2010s, well, in 2010, in 2010, you had the rise,

of course, Spotify, and the rise of Apple Music, and people still continue to pirate music. They even put it in the format of Spotify and Apple music to where you only had to subscribe. What was it? I forget how much, because I'm on a college plan. I'm not going to lie to you. So it's like 10 a month. But for other people, for the older people, I don't know how much they have to pay. I'm assuming

it's a little bit more than nine. Maybe let's just say 15. So 15 a month for all the music ever released on DSP history. Like you could go back to Biggie all the way. All the way up to the latest, well, little Uzi Virt album with the pink tape. So it's very interesting the way that people still go about hacking. I don't know if it's somebody

inside his team. I would think it's somebody inside his team, but of course there are hackers out there who specifically specialize and taking music from artists or labels, computers, and then releasing the unreleased music to the masses.

Also, there's data breaches can expose unreleased music to a lot of people who would otherwise not have access to that music and then of course social media for a lot of people sometimes a snippet will come out and

it's a lot of different ways they go about trying to acquire that music and obviously when we see a little Uzivert most times it's illegally and I don't know what Uzi can do about this maybe stop recording with a huge team around you but you don't really know who all is around that handles the music and who handles the hard drives

and who's producing on this album like you don't know who's leaking the music so for Uzi it's probably frustrating because you don't know who to trust when you're giving a studio sessions to certain producers and you don't know ever you might not know who uh everybody is in the room so the biggest thing while i'm even bringing this up is that nine songs have been leaked from the bar from bar to 16 and the album could be potentially canceled due to all of these leaks that has

happened for the album so usually for leaks and unreleased music i like to put it in a scripture box below allegedly, you know. But for a little Uzi Ver, I'm not going to lie. I do feel kind of bad for him because I've seen this happen to him way more than any other artists in the hip hop in hip hop history. Like I don't know what it is about Uzi and its recording pattern, but if it wasn't for Uzi, the amount of leek music we would receive would not be as much because I don't see any other artists having this amount of trouble with leaked music. I know A'sab Rocky came out

one day. I was like, hey, my whole album got leaked. That's why y'all haven't got music in a while, but nobody cared. So putting that to the side, Uzi is constantly getting his music leak to the point where I'm like, who else in the hip-hop industry and actually putting up the numbers that Uzi does in his first week sales is getting the music leak at a consistent rate like this? Because this is ridiculous. Obviously, if you didn't record this much, it wouldn't be as much music to leak, but when it comes to that, I don't see Chris Brown's music getting leaked all the time, and everybody knows he puts out albums at a 40 clip, so I'm like, I don't understand. So at the end of the day, that's what I wanted to report on is more of a condemning segment

for leakers and hackers and people who's just out there illegally distributing Uzi's music, And I would put this on Uzi because he did say he would give us what we really want in Bar to 16 if we got the pink tape to number one overall as far as first week sales. And that ended up happening. And then Bar the 16 was nowhere. Barter 16, my bad, was nowhere to be found. So, but it still doesn't excuse leaking music. It doesn't, it's really, it's really disrespectful for somebody to spend hours upon hours in the studio.

just to have their music leaked by fans who otherwise would would have purchased the music. So you take money out of an artist pocket that you seemingly are a fan of. So at this point, what choice does Uzi have other than to just completely scrap Bar to 16? Anyways, click my link to your in my bio. Let me know one of my social media is. What do you think about multiple songs from Bar to Six being leaked online? Do you care? At the end of day, do you think that Little Uzivert has the most leaked music of all time?
