Starting point is 00:00:00 The time has come to get into one of the most impactful artists in the SoundCloud generation. And I'm talking about none other than Little Uzi Verde himself as he has officially broken the hip-hop curse of not being able to get number one simply because this man, Morgan Wallen, doesn't want any hip-hop artist to eat. This man has been number one for 15. non-consecutive weeks, which means that he took a break from being number one, and then he came back to being number one. So now that the curse has been broken by none other than the SoundCloud King, Little UziVert, we have our first number one hip-hop album as far as first week sales of 2023. Now, that's a huge accomplishment in itself, and because of that, I took it upon myself
Starting point is 00:00:57 to bring one of my close friends onto the pod and discuss some of the things surrounding the album, some of his favorite tracks. And then I have a few questions in general because me and him go back and forth all the time, like off mic, about just different happenings in the music industry. So I'm glad to have him on the pod now
Starting point is 00:01:22 as this was a long time coming. I definitely wanted to have him on at some point. But I have none other than Jada and he's getting ready to start his own channel with his covering of leaked music. And, well, I'm going to let him speak for himself and kind of tell you what he's getting started. Well, what he's about to get started with. But yeah, none other than Jada is joining us on the pod.
Starting point is 00:01:54 So. Yeah, I'm making a tip to. soon. I started to make and start posting, you know what I'm going to be posting, like, all of the time about like a Rosh, Uzi, just a little chirorette,
Starting point is 00:02:15 like, and I'm not a right. But, yeah, that's, that's mostly what I'm doing. Hidden Elite Village, you know, from my Naruto fans, Hidden Leaf, but it's a hit in the League, you know, go ahead of me. Yeah, just to reiterate it,
Starting point is 00:02:30 it was breaking up just a little bit you said on tic-tok is hidden leak village yes sir hidden leak village so just in case uh you wanted to go follow him before he gets uh started up on that tic talk and he's be uh you're covering like everything from all like little uzy verse to the juice world leak music right like all the underground happenings that people may not may or may not be aware of just kind of getting a gauge of of what you're you I'll go in some like Drake, some more mainstream artists too. Yeah. So I think in general, like a lot of people will probably be informed on that channel because, you know, you said what?
Starting point is 00:03:24 Because in general, I feel like a lot of people don't are or just not knowledgeable of all of the music that's coming out in the underground as far as like all of the leaks. Because me and myself, even being what I call. a student at the game and knowing a lot of the behind the scenes works of what artists are doing even sometimes the leaks are too much for me so i know a channel dedicated to covering those leaks would definitely be informative for a lot of people and i think it's one of those type of things that um will be very interesting to see how it goes in the future but um besides that are you ready to get into little uzi verse pink tape man i'm ready man so So, of course, I know you're a little Uzi-Verts number one fan, but I have to ask you this.
Starting point is 00:04:19 And I just, you know, was Little Uzi-Verts pink tape a good or bad album? And also, what is your overall opinion on the album? Okay. So, to me, the album is a good album because there's a bunch of listeners. songs, right? And there's a couple of rock songs on there, which is Uzi being experimental, but he didn't do terrible on those songs. It's just not a lot of people's vibe. But if you can tap into the vibe that he's going for, I feel like he did great on the whole album. I'm not going to say it's one of his best albums, but it's definitely not a bad album. But it's just not what the people
Starting point is 00:05:13 were expecting. But to me, the album was good. He had a couple of his snippets that he previewed on there. Like, I got a ridiculous, as it was called before it came out. So that was fire to hear that. Pluto de Mars was on there. And that was a snippet. Mama, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:05:35 That was a snippet, too. So he dropped some snippets that some of his fans wanted. And I thought that was fire. Like, we've been waiting for those for a little bit. since like 2021, I'm pretty sure. So it was good to get those songs off on the album. So I think it was good. So what is the deal with Little Uzi Virt fans and all of the leaks and snippets?
Starting point is 00:05:58 Because I feel like does Little Uzi have the most leaks out of any artists? So I don't know if he has the most because Jusra has a bunch of leaks too. And Cardi and, yeah, a lot of people have a lot of leaks. But he does have a bunch of leaks. and he has like he'll like just randomly get on live or something or somebody would randomly just leak music out of nowhere or like a snippet will come out but he has so much snippets it's insane yeah that's that's kind of how i was perceiving it because from the outside looking in it's like this man can't make a song without it leaking the next day the following day it's like that would be frustrating for an artist i would assume but somehow he was able to give us, would you say it's mostly new music on his album? Yeah, I would say it is the most new music. Of course, well, weeks, of course, in Zoom.
Starting point is 00:07:04 But other than those I've said, I'm pretty sure read all the new. Okay, because that's what I was wondering. I was hoping, like, enough of his music was new enough to make it feel like a whole entire fresh body of work. But getting it to the overall album, the first week sales is kind of what I wanted to touch on from my side of things. As I know that he sold more in the past when it came to first week sales when back in 2017 with Love is Race 2. And then in 2020, of course, you know, you can't forget eternal a take and amount of sales that did. But I believe was that um oh okay no that that was the um i'm thinking of pluto and baby pluto so that did around
Starting point is 00:07:54 200,000 first week and i know love is race two and eternally take did was that around 280 to 300,000 first week because i think that was his highest selling albums of all time love race two and eternal a take so if i'm off with that just let me know but i'm pretty sure that's like correct. No, that's right. That's right. So it surprised a lot of, I don't know if it surprised you, but it surprised a lot of Uzi fans when this man put out a red and white EP and only sold 20,000 first week. But technically, it was an EP, but I think the 20,000 threw a lot of fans off to make
Starting point is 00:08:38 think. So a lot of people were saying after that that Uzi was quote unquote washed up because of the perception from fans. surrounding eternal a take as far as quality-wise. And then for him following that up, well, after the mixtape he did with Future, him following that up with the EP red and white. I don't know why artists like that put out an EP when they know if the numbers aren't there, disregarding the little amount of tracks that's on it.
Starting point is 00:09:09 People are going to look at their first week sales and they're just going to ignorantly say he like fell off or washed up. Did you ever, so you as a Uzi fan yourself, did you ever at any point of time think that Uzi may have been falling off in this, in this 2020 to 23 run? Me as a Uzi fan, no, because I'm in the underground. I'm getting all the leaks. I'm hearing his flow evolve. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:09:41 I'm in the back, like listening to all this. So I'm just seeing him go up while other people that are not listening to the leaks. which is most people that listen to music are saying he's falling off because he's not releasing music and then he releases this little throwaway little EP. So from my point of view, no. But yeah, to everybody else he is. Okay. Yeah, I always wonder about that because me, you know, I am a huge Drake fan, as you
Starting point is 00:10:08 definitely know, but, you know, my audience at this point has been conditioned to know that I think Drake is just the goat of music. and in every conversation I bring him up. But there's never been a point where I was just like, oh, Drake's falling off. And for little Uzi Ver, I feel like people are starting to say that and trying to point to the fact that he was going kind of a satanic marketing route. Maybe not personally, but as far as marketing, he was doing a lot of things as far as the upside down cross, the wearing the devil, like devil. having devilish imagery and just really playing off of the fact that he may be satanic as far as his marketing strategy. How did that affect you as an Uzi fan?
Starting point is 00:10:59 Honestly, if I wasn't as big as an Uzi fan as I am, that probably would have shook me anymore. But I feel like a lot of his music doesn't talk satanically. Like his image, yeah, is getting put satanically, but you can say the same thing for like Cardi or like, I feel like a lot of his newer gen artists have the satanic like advertisement, you know what I'm saying? So I didn't really take it too deeply, but if it starts converting into his music, then you might see a change. But as long as his music is still vivy and melodic, I'm cool. Yeah, so I was always wondering about that because if Drake started to do some weird stuff with like satanic type marketing, I may have started to actually think myself that he was falling off. Like currently, I know you've seen the picture of him painting his nails. And obviously, you know, he had a little, not no pun intended, but he had a little Yadi influence with that type of marketing strategy.
Starting point is 00:12:07 but I think that compared to like satanic type marketing strategies is a little it's a little different when it comes to the level of um the level of uh that's I don't even know the word but how desperate it looks on a marketing aspect it seems like you're trying to tap it to a audience in in a way that that's very unappealing to most people but anyways I just wanted to touch on that. So, what else out? Oh, so top five tracks. That's something I wanted to get into.
Starting point is 00:12:44 I will also give my top five tracks. I've been letting you get your opinion off because, you know, people hear me talking all the time on this platform. So I just want to let you get your opinions off. So what is your favorite, well, top five favorite tracks on the pink tape? All right. Top five. No order. No order, though.
Starting point is 00:13:09 It's still hard because I'm still listening to all this song. I'm still playing back a couple songs, but my top five would probably be flooded the face. Okay. Crush them up. No, crush them. Okay. I like rehab a lot. I was going to ask you about that.
Starting point is 00:13:31 Do you know any of the behind the scenes about that? Was that a real story or was he just making up something? I think it had to be because he was gone for like three years again, like back after he just came back from three years. So something has to be going on with his mental, mental, I don't know. So I think it's true. Yeah, I'm going to look into that because, well, sorry, I'm going to let you finish your list. But yeah, that was one of the ones I had questions about. So, yeah, rehab, I think was three, Sharday, four.
Starting point is 00:14:07 and I'm going to say all alone because I wasn't going to put any songs I already knew before but that's why I just gas so I'm put that in there. Yeah, all alone is pretty fire. So if I had to give my list, because I did listen to the album,
Starting point is 00:14:25 so I did listen to it and I've been listening to it continuously, I might say. Like, it's not one of those projects while I listen to it and it just left it. Like I actually enjoy a good amount of songs on this album. So I would say for me, my top five would be, I don't even know how to say this.
Starting point is 00:14:43 Is it Nakamura? I don't know to say that. Is that like anime, WWE? Like, what is that? That's a, he's a WWE fighter. I don't even know who that is honestly, but, hey, do you lose it? Yeah, what was your first, I don't know. So for me, that is my favorite song off of this album, like, by far.
Starting point is 00:15:05 So, like, what did you? think of that like specific song um honestly that wasn't my vibe but i like it because for other people it is a vibe because i'll see a lot of people that do like this song a lot so hey because for me yeah for me i'm imagining he's making this album under the pretense that i'ma perform this live like obviously every rap artist performs the music live but it seems like little uzi verse went into the studio with the mindset I'm going to perform this live and would knock a, I still can't say it.
Starting point is 00:15:45 It's Nakamura, I don't know to say that. But whatever, whatever is pronounced pronunciation. I feel like he made this song specifically to be performed live and I mean, I think the entire album he made to be performed live, but that tracks specifically, I think
Starting point is 00:16:01 meshed with the replay value and the quality in a way that I don't know for me, it just overtook the entire album. But all right so getting into my number two I would say that flooded the face simply because that's a great way to start off an album
Starting point is 00:16:16 like you know and I know and you know that I know that a little Uzibert young thug and Cardi and them are sometimes suspect in the way they dress so the way that he yeah so the way that he started off
Starting point is 00:16:32 his album and it just like addressed that off of the off of the bat like off the real like usually for an album yeah album intro you know maybe you get to something else he got straightened into the gay allegations and he was like first of all they're like how could you think looosey yeah he shut that down real quick and then the bars after that you know i can't say because it's a pg podcast but let's just say he went on a pretty nice flow and throughout the rest of that track it was just straight fire so that's my number two favorite track off the album and then number three
Starting point is 00:17:08 I would definitely have to say, Mama, I'm sorry. Because I think in general, it just sounds like more of old Uzi. I don't know why, but it gives me that vibe of old Uzi when I listen to that track, just the way it starts off. And just the pattern of it reminds me of, I won't say love is rage, but a little Uzi Verde versus the world. That's what it reminded me of. My mama, I'm sorry, kind of took me back to those OG days.
Starting point is 00:17:33 And then, oh, man, I'm at four. I like days come and go, I feel like you said what? Oh, you said, yeah. Yeah, so I think days come and go is, I don't know, that's more of a positive track for me. Like, I really enjoyed the, like, the amount of positivity that came from that track. Like, he was like, days come and go, but my love is here to stay. I was like, oh, look at Lil' who's you making a positive track, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:18:02 But honestly, I'm at to switch that out for Pluto to Mars, because I think that song is just straightfire. like Pluto to Mars is straight heat So that'll probably come in number four for me And then number five I would have to say rehab Because if this is a real Incident that happened in his life Like that takes a lot of like guts
Starting point is 00:18:22 To put this out on the album It kind of reminded me of when Drake Had that track off of Scorpion I forget what it was It was March something And he was basically talking about his kid And you know his kid coming to the world and stuff.
Starting point is 00:18:39 Oh yeah, March 14th is like the final track off of Scorpion. And it was kind of like that revelation of, oh, I have a kid now and I'm letting you know for the first time, even though, you know, technically Pusha did it. But that's another, hey, that's another segment for another day. But just the vulnerability to the amount of vulnerability in that track, I think made it, like made my, it's why it made my top five. list. Like, other than his vulnerability, I don't know if I would have that on my top five, but the stuff he was saying, if that really went on to open up about that stuff, because like mental health is no joke. So for him to open up about that and put it on the actual album, it's a, I'm not going to lie. It's pretty inspiring for most other artists out there to know that on this very commercialized, publicized album, you could put out this type of vulnerability. And that's what I say reminded me of. because, you know, Drake's notorious for telling us about his life on his album.
Starting point is 00:19:41 So, and, you know, that's one thing I always critique a lot with Uzi. And, you know, we talk about this behind the scenes all the time. But I'm always saying that Uzi doesn't say anything in his music. And I feel like you, I don't know if you disagreed or you said, like, didn't matter. I forget which one you said. But, yeah, that's just one of the things that I noticed. It was like, I'm not getting anything from Uzi's life from these albums. I don't know. What would you say about that?
Starting point is 00:20:11 Yeah. I would say that Uzi really does go more for a vibe. Like, that's how like the Cardi vibe, you know, the Cardi vibe, like the same words over and over kind of.
Starting point is 00:20:24 But Uzi was like a step above that. I feel like, like he would say something over, but then he could keep going and like, say different stuff. But he's not really trying to talk about his life in the sense. But I feel like if Uzi wanted too
Starting point is 00:20:40 like in rehab and yeah I feel like the frustrating thing about him like not really say anything is that we've seen
Starting point is 00:20:53 little Uzi freestyle and he's like actually good at rapping so when he does like you know the repetitive type of songs
Starting point is 00:21:03 and stuff it just throws me off on why we're not hearing more about his life because he can really freestyle yeah
Starting point is 00:21:13 yeah So I'm like, I don't know, that just... You said what? I was just trying to get his lit. Oh, yeah. I mean, yeah, I mean, basically, that's what the whole album is, kind of. And, yeah, I don't know, it just threw me off because I'm like, usually rappers who go that format, like a Playboy Cardi or whatever, I'm not going to say they can't rap, but I've
Starting point is 00:21:39 never seen him. With Uzi, I've seen him just freestyle with, like, random rappers, and he'll actually be flowing and coming up with like different double and triple entendre just by himself freestyle. So I'm like, how come he doesn't do that when he's making these albums? But obviously, you know, it's working for him. So, so, you know, I'm not judging or critiquing him. I've just always wondered that aspect of it. But one of the last things I was wanted to get into was, well, also, I forgot, was, so my top five was any track on there that
Starting point is 00:22:16 you was just like, why did you put that on there or no? Um. I can tell you my top five again if you want me to. Yeah. I remember the only one that I don't really like that you said was not far, but it's not a bad song. It's just not my top songs on the album. But you put it on Mars and, oh, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:22:44 My I'm sorry was like the song I wanted the most on the album. from all the snippets they released. So, that would be down there. That one is part. And Mars is part too. So, so yeah, your list was, yes was valid.
Starting point is 00:22:59 Appreciate it. I appreciate it. You know, I try to listen to Uzi. You know, it wasn't. I have one question. You said what? Oh, I got one question, though, for you.
Starting point is 00:23:08 All right, let me hear it. How did you feel about the features on the album? You know what's so funny. I had that as a little. one of my questions but um you already know what I'm gonna say you already know what I'm gonna say
Starting point is 00:23:25 where's Drake man where's the goat where's Aubrey Graham on this album we literally have a song on YouTube sitting on YouTube called At the Gates by Little Uzi Verk and Drake and this would have been the perfect album to put it on Uzi Uzi trying to work
Starting point is 00:23:47 but look Love is Race 3 he put that in his body he said if you get this album's number one he's dropping a new album so i'd really think drake could be on that album actually no joke you know what i think i think that he literally just said that so he could outsell that morgan walling guy because if you don't morgan wallen has been having uh unprecedented like a bad bunny type run on the charts like he's been number one for this whole entire let me see
Starting point is 00:24:22 for eight 12 15 for like four months straight well I said non consecutive so I guess one of the weeks he wasn't number one but he's been
Starting point is 00:24:31 number one every week besides that for 15 weeks so Uzi was probably panicking a little bit and he was like bro I got to get
Starting point is 00:24:41 because think about it this is the first number one that a hip hop album has had so Uzi I think he only said that because
Starting point is 00:24:50 he knew that Morgan Wallen could end up overtaking that number one spot because he still sold a lot. I would have to look at how much he sold, but he still so close to the pink tape. So I think he just told his fans that so he could get that number one first week sales as far as album. So I don't even think Love is Raged 3 is coming. So that's my personal opinion. Yeah, I think it is a little bit of that. But at the same thing, Tom, I feel like Uzi really did just drop a experimental, more experimental album. So, like, it's more of a performing album, like you said, like a concert album. So I feel like he has a lot of songs that the Uzi community does want and we thought we were getting.
Starting point is 00:25:41 So I think he is saving those for his radio. That's why he is kind of trying to promote love his race three now because he's saying, I'm going to give you all what y'all really want. So we will see. So you're on the side of he's actually going to drop another album. Yeah. Okay. He has so much more music.
Starting point is 00:26:04 It's crazy. I respect it. Yeah, because they said Morgan Wallen was projected to do around 120,000 first week. And think about it, this is like his 16th or 17th week since the album's been out. Like, this is actually insane, the amount of numbers he's doing. So, I mean, pink tape just is, yeah, pink tape is projected to do around 165,000 first week. So, yeah, it would clear that number. But, I mean, you know, 40,000 for Morgan Wallin, it could have easily caught up to it.
Starting point is 00:26:41 So that's probably why Uzi was like, let's put a little bit more of a gap between those two albums. So he could officially have that number one. but we'll see hopefully he drops the album um i don't think him and drake are like beefing but at this point like where is the drake and uzi music like like i talked about it in a previous segment but for uzi and drake to be at the top of the respective games like you know drake's more of the lyrical side uzi's more of the soundcloud error side and they're both like kings of that error specific like genre i guess but but or subgenre.
Starting point is 00:27:22 But why have they never came together? Because even Drake and Playboy Cardi came together, I believe. But I think that song was like, okay. But I don't know. I just think if Drake and Uzi made the track, it would just be fire. And, I mean, at the gates show me that. So I don't know. But I don't want to stick too much on that topic.
Starting point is 00:27:39 Because you ask about the features specifically on this album, right? Yeah. So, you all right know how I feel about Travis Scott. You know, every time I talk about him, I'm definitely bringing up the Astro World situation because I'm not letting that go. And until the, because I know he was just cleared of charges
Starting point is 00:28:01 as far as being charged for it, the incident. But, you know, for me personally, the way I've covered, or just seeing his career go throughout the whole his touring and the way that he just promotes his crowds to do certain things. Like, you can see this happening.
Starting point is 00:28:20 But anyway, that's besides the point. I don't want to harp on Travis Scott. So I'm not. that track um i'm not going to review but the niki minage one i will say is that or the don't tolliver one for me because the other to bring me the horizon and baby metal features on here i think it's more of the experimental lane that's ultimately not for me like i'm looking at the album right now and I have those like grayed out you know you can like hide a song so it doesn't play when you hit shuffle so so that just was not for me like hey I deleted those things yeah like
Starting point is 00:29:04 those experimental experimental tracks that he had with those artists was not for me in the slightest but I would say if it was between Don Tyler and Nikki I would have to say Nikki and not because of Nikki Minaj but or even though she had a phenomenal verse but I've really enjoyed Uzi's chorus or his hook on that track like what he comes on with at the beginning of the track yeah I agree
Starting point is 00:29:31 like let me pull it up he basically says well you know I can't say it like he said it but basically you know he has that hook and he repeats that throughout the track and I think that's just like so far and then Nikki comes on and adds her like lyricism type of you know she said like even if I was Natalie Nunn these girls
Starting point is 00:29:51 or, you know, expeditive still can't chin check me, which I looked up Natalie Nunn, and I was like, that is bullying. That is honestly bullying. I don't know if you've seen Natalie a Natalie Nunn or her face, but how come nobody says none when another woman points out another woman's features in a negative way? But, you know, that's besides a point.
Starting point is 00:30:12 You know what I mean? Maybe I'm tripping, you know? Maybe Nick Minasj is not bullying. Maybe she's just pointing out an obvious fact, you know? But anyways, that's besides a point. point. So I think, she can do what she wants. Yeah, Nikki just says whatever. Like, Nikki can come out, call a girl ugly. And I mean, she literally said that lotto look like an old woman. And then everybody was like, yeah, you're right. Nikki. She does. I'm like, okay. All right. But if a guy said that,
Starting point is 00:30:36 but anyways, that's besides the point. So, so, but I do think that's probably my favorite feature off of the album. Because I don't know, Uzi and Nikki is an interesting collab. And I think they made it work for this album. But what about you? What's your favorite feature on here? Honestly, the best feature is the Nicki Minaj one. I'm not going to lie. I'm going to keep it on it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:04 Because they both just went back and forth, and they was both flowing. I was like, hey, this is a little beautiful right here, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, it was like a real collab. It was kind of crazy. Yeah, that's true. But I do like the Travis Scott feature just because, like, that song actually was previewed a little bit before, too, because Travis Scott had like a listening party or something, and he invited Uzi, and then they performed it on the stage or whatever.
Starting point is 00:31:30 But they changed the beat in the middle of the song, which it wasn't like that before. And it surprised me. So the song really just hit harder, and Travis Scott did have a decent verse. I don't know if I'd say it was like a great verse, but Travis Scott sometimes tends to sell on verses, unless it was like Drake.
Starting point is 00:31:51 He always goes crazy when he's with Drake. but he tends to sell verses sometimes, but this verse, his voice was good. You know what I'm saying? People that mix his voice did a good job this time, so I feel like it was a good feature. That's another interesting thing. Have you ever looked into like Uzi or Travis or who's another one,
Starting point is 00:32:13 Playbukardi producer? Like, do they ever speak on how they mix and master those artists' vocals? Or is that just like supposed to be, mysterious and never to find out. I think I know for Cardi anyways, it's more mysterious. But like, Uzi, I know he has a couple different engineers, but so like when he changes engineers, you can definitely tell. But I only know of one engineer and it's a girl.
Starting point is 00:32:45 I forgot her name. It's like, I don't even remember. I think it's more than that thing for most artists. So, yeah. Yeah, because, I mean, if I was, which track do you think had the best, like, mastering, like, mixing mastering, like, mixing mastering off of this? The best mastering? Um, I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say crushing, bro. I just like the way crash him sound, sounded.
Starting point is 00:33:20 It went, it sounded. It sounded like, it sounded like, it sounded, and he switched his flow. It just, it was just all sounded great. Okay. Yeah, I asked that so I could pull up the detail. So it was produced by Canon, which you know Canon. He has that funny tag where it's like Canon, you know, like every time. That stuff's hilarious.
Starting point is 00:33:41 I'm like, bro, that man has to come up with a better producer tag. But that's besides a point. But Q beats, I don't know who that is, and one, one digger. Do you like recognize any of those names? That's one of the things. Producers is more behind the scenes. Unless you're Metro or a hip boy or a Tay Keith, like, you're. or DJ drama like it's
Starting point is 00:34:03 I mean I guess there's a lot No this actually a lot But I mean you know When you're featured You said what I said do you like Pierre Hey yo Pierre You want to come out here
Starting point is 00:34:16 Oh yeah okay That tag is classic But as far as Pierre Um Honestly I haven't heard Anything he's been on lately Is he on this album? Mm-hmm
Starting point is 00:34:28 Uh nah But he's like He's usually with he's usually with Cardi and he's on the XXL freshman he's producing that so he's making the beast for that and all that so oh that's good for him yeah that that list looks amazing i know DJ drama did it the year before or maybe it was like two years before but i know they do get like highly um you know highly um I don't even know the word famous producers to be on there like
Starting point is 00:34:57 as far as like quality wise but anyways um I wanted to get into something else I want to get into oh yeah okay so this is the ultimate question you know to wrap up because you know I definitely want to respect your time I know you got millionaire billionaire meetings to you know to to call into so you know I don't want to take up too much of your time you know what I'm saying
Starting point is 00:35:19 but let's get into the last question now after reviewing this album going over the sales which this is as people can see on the screen now, you know, a shameless plug, Analytic Dreams video on Spotify to look at the video version of this whole entire segment. But as you see on the screen now, with this becoming the first number one rap album in
Starting point is 00:35:49 23 as far as first week sales, and with the pink tape having the marketing campaign they did before the album even came out with the trailer, which I never seen any, that's another thing. Okay, so like a quick thoughts on the reveal trailer for the album, the anime type trailer. What did you think about that? I thought it was so far because I was not expecting it at all. I was just chilling on my phone and I see trailer. I'm like, what is this? He got his own little movie, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:36:23 No rappers is really doing that. Who's acting out here? What rap is acting for their own soundtrack? Well, a much of the movement kind of kind of did. and Sider Man, but he was just in a little scene. But I thought it was fire. Yeah, because the cost of production for
Starting point is 00:36:42 that trailer, I was just seeing, like, I know that was through the roof. Like, people was like, hey, even Marvel CGA ain't this good. I was like, ain't no way. I was like, ain't no way. But anyways, well, all that build up into the pink tape and then to finally get
Starting point is 00:36:58 the album to get all what, 26 tracks. And what was the runtime? the runtime was an hour and 27 minutes of content. Do you think that this is album of the year? Album of the year so far? Yep. Yes.
Starting point is 00:37:23 Yes. I think this album, the only other album that could compete right now, I feel like, is Gunna's. And I feel like this album has more songs than Gunna's. Gunna's had good music, but Uzi has more quantity
Starting point is 00:37:39 and quality too at the same time so I feel like right now this is album of the year you know after listening to the album over and over and picking out my favorite songs and that's the thing when you put out this many tracks you can kind of make your own playlist of your favorite tracks
Starting point is 00:37:56 so I've been listening to the favorite tracks of that album and I mean I would have to say that I would not be mad at somebody saying that this is their album of the year year because from the marketing rollout to the actual amount of content we got from it, from the features, from the, really the experimental side of it. Artists don't experiment because they're scared of the numbers. But for Uzi, I mean, other artists, including like, you know, Cardi, Kanye does it a lot,
Starting point is 00:38:26 but, you know, just the ways you experiment from album to album, I don't know if it's as appreciated for average, but not average, but you know, for the common hip-hop fan because, you know, they want to hear rap. So I won't be mad to somebody saying this is their favorite album of the year. Now, as far as a hip-hop album,
Starting point is 00:38:47 I'll be interested to see where this falls under the category, because I know for Nikki Minaj's most popular track, I forget what it was called, but it was literally her first track ever to go number one and the Grammys labeled it as an urban track
Starting point is 00:39:07 simply because of the simply because of the the sample she had. I'm trying to find what it was called. Oh, a super freaky girl. So that's the name of the track. I'm not even trying to be funny.
Starting point is 00:39:23 That's what's called. Super Freaky Girl by Nickymanage was the most popular track like ever because it reached number one. I mean, as far as like the, the time it took from release date to reaching number one was the fastest she ever had in her career. But it had this sample that kept happening over and over again
Starting point is 00:39:43 in the single to the point where the Grammys, because Nikki Minaj was irate because this happened, Grammys put this in the urban category where she ended up losing to like a Taylor Swift or Adele somebody. But if she was in the hip-hop category, she would easily won. so do you think well I mean
Starting point is 00:40:04 this is actually a hard question but I'm under the impression that the Grammys won't put this under a hip-hop album what do you think I don't know honestly I feel like
Starting point is 00:40:19 just because it's a little Uzi vert I feel like they will put it in hip-hop but there really is like a bunch of rock songs on here so I can see I could honestly see them doing either or, bro.
Starting point is 00:40:36 But yeah, either or, I don't know, honestly. Okay. Well, yeah, that's all I was wondering. If he jobs another album, Love is Rage 3, then this album should get put in, like, rock or whatever, they would put it in a different genre. So, yeah. Well, well, well, said, I respect you for giving me
