Did Lil Uzi Vert & XXXtentacion's Albums Live Up to the Hype? | Everyday Struggle 

akademics looks like he about to smack budden in the face

had to come back to watch this... rip xxxtentacion

It hit me hard when he said X would mature and grow out of that

X's album was actually good, shit made me miss the ex I never had

We're in an era of rap where the producers should be paid more than the rappers.

Opinions on music are pointless. They just get you mad or give you the affirmation you were seeking.

please stop calling him 'triple x', he isnt a wwe wrestler lmao

"he's 24".... even worse lmao

0:45 akademiks look like he gonna swing at Joe Budden.

I can't take Joe Budden seriously when it look like his shirt on backwards

Can we not forget how good the way life goes is??

RIP XXXTENTACION

Akademiks tryna look nice for nadeska today I can tell

"THAT SHIT IS FUCKIN TRASH DAWG, GET THE FUCK OFF THE AIRWAYS" -JOHN IN TENNESSEE

im happy joe likes x frfr

X is an artist , not a rapper , of course he can sing

Joe Budden the type of nigga to get mad at a deaf person for not listening to his tape

Akademiks lowkey wanted to fold joe lol

13:05 look how proudly he speaks on x. Breaks my heart man.. Rest in peace xxxtentacion

8:36 if you wanna hear them talk about xxx

There ain't no Magnificient song lmao

In Luv is Rage 2, uzi tried to show everyone that he could make songs sound good without good bars and he tried to show his melodic style of himself.

RIP X, LONG LIVE X

14:08 VERY RARE

Joe Budden the type of guy to say Triple X for XXXtentacion

Is Joe's Shirt On Backwards?

Joe is too much, one comment "Trash." and a long ass silence 😂😱😭🔥

2017 was an amazing year for hip-hop

My son akademiks finally discovered the mall

Why Nadeska always look so stressed?

Pretty mami , X, unfazed , the way life goes , neon guts ..... 🔥🔥

i love where Joe Budden stands in the rap game lmaoo

... I used to hate x and his screaming music but after 17 i loved him. How he expresses his feelings and emotions through his songs are just beautiful and almost artistic. I do not think anyone else can do this type of music as well as him. Hes a one of a kind. Luv is rage 2 wasnt what i expected, but it was still okay.

He fucks with it when xxx talks about suicide but he doesn't fuck with logic

Rip x🙏

“He’ll grow up, he’ll mature out of that”💔

Came back to see Joe praise X... Its dope to watch. Also luv is rage 2 still hits!

Uzis album went platinum but somehow it’s “trash”😭

"Between 1 to 10, what would you give it?? Lie and say 7" "I would say 8" 😂😂😂

X's album was amazing... It had flow, beats, Melody, and most importantly lyrics and I liked Uzi's album for the vibe but x's was way way better

Why weren't Kendrick Lamar's tweets about XXXtentacion's album mentioned? It probably boosted his sales by at least 3x

Watching Joe speak about X now that he's gone.....

"He'll mature" ;(

RIP X BRO

This album wasn’t the best that uzi can do

@6:05 "with 8 bars singing eh eh eh" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

rip xxx

I thought Neon Guts was good😢

I don't really like the album too much, but Dark Queen was an amazing song.

Favorites on Luv is Rage 2 : Sauce it up, Dark Queen, The way life goes, and X 😤🔥🔥🔥🔥

I wanna see Joe interview lil pump, he would absolutely lose his mind 😂😂

X's album surpassed the hype but Uzi's was way over hyped for what it was

THIS NIGGA SAID PRETTY GOOD 8/10 JESUS CHRIST

Lil uzi vert : not really Xxxtentacion: yes

Uzi & X are my 2 favorite artists of all time.

Pump pump it up

Uzis actually 23

I don't know man, I'm only really bumping a few tracks on luv is Rage 2 tbh. I haven't listened to 17 though so I can't say much on that

Rip X

Luv Is Rage > Luv Is Rage 2

Uzis album was garbage compared to the original luv is rage. The first was full of melodic catchy hits.

Surprisingly, XXXTentacion's album is amazing. I didn't expect much from him at first but the Kendrick coding made me listen. I am not sorry I did. Amazing album and then the tracks are bite size.

I miss these times i remember watching this when it dropped and i was so happy for x that a og finnaly on public platform gave him sum fucking credit,this was a moment in hip hop 4sure

he was truly one of a kind... RIP X

Joe Budden: 'I can see X was a kid who grew up with principles' X not too long ago to a camera man: 'YOU BROKE! YO MAMA BROKE! YO AUNTIE BROKE.. '

“What you think about uzi album” Ak “Trash” Joe 😂😂

Joe Budden is really smarter than yall think.

17 Was better than love is rage

Everyone talking about X and Uzi but sleeping on Brockhampton. Go listen to Saturation 2, topped both by a mile.

Honestly…Joe is speaking truth here as far as Lil Uzi's album. Was highly disappointed, i WANTED to like the album, but he's right when he says there is literally not one other song on that album that will be a HIT on the radio the same way as XO TOUR LIFE. The album was just bad. XXX's album on the other hand was fireeee!!!!!!!!

My mans said "the song magnificent" that's how u know he didn't listen to it lol

"Every album is made with a purpose" 🙌🏾

Joe the definition of a old head

#OUTMELODYIN'

This show is shot perfectly good job complex fr fr 💯💯

Fuck it hurts watching them speak so positively of X and saying he’s gonna have a future and everything

No lie the album Xxxtentacion drop was fucking beautiful 🌷💘💞

I gotta agree with Joe on this one. There were 3 songs that I liked on Uzi's album, one of them being xo tour life, which I already got tired of, and the other two I will tire of eventually. This show made me go and listen to XXX's album, and man it was surprisingly good. The songs are just too short on X's album.

Great Analysis, right on point Buddens, I agree 100 percent...

That smack at 5:00 killed me 😂

I didn't think Luv is rage 2 was great when I first listened to it but the more I listen to it I think it is really great. Dark Queen, How to Talk and there are other good ones. The songs are catchy. Kinda repetitive but I enjoy it.

Looking back on what Joe is saying after X dropping “?” It’s 100% accurate.... X Is an incredible artist

Hearing them talk about how x will be here for awhile and I think his music will be here forever Rest In Peace X

i keep looking back at these videos doing research cus im bout to be there

"You got the best advice but I won't call I know I'm grown so I do not need y'all And if I get locked up mom change the law, you fix everything so that's what I thought When I was small momma made me tall, even though I'm daddy's pup she still gone wipe my paws Don't care about the money, don't care about them cars, lose my momma that's a problem you can solve" I really doubt Joe gave Uzi album a real listen, I'm not talking about one listen or skipping through, but you can't give a real opinion of a project without listening to it all the way through multiple times bc you can't even catch everything in a album that quick, though Uzi don't have much substance I think Dark Queen was a great song that had a real emotion behind it. Joe couldn't even name the songs he liked off of X's album, I can't take his opinion seriously on new wave artist bc I feel as if he's listening to find the bad instead of knowing what type of artist these people are and taking it for what it is.

Budden dropped some real talk fr

coming back to this album a year later, Joe is a genius, he was literally right about everything that he said, aged well

I loved luv is rage 2

Luv is rage 2 got 4 good songs

Akadimiks gonna be George Jefferson soon if he don't stop wearing these hats....And let his head breathe.....

4:50 I expected an agreement, so I cracked up.

When joe said "he will be here" referring to X That kinda hit hard

how long does it take for food to travel down your neck

This boy joey got his shirt on backwards 😂. Check the tag outline

LLJ.

"every album is made with a purpose" factsss

Look I'm a uzi fan, and if joe said it's trash then let him think that. He has all the right to think what he wants, I don't agree with him but I respect his opinions cause music is subjective there's no good or bad songs it's up to us to see if we like it or not and If we are vibing to it. Me personally I enjoyed the album I mean for something that I waited almost a year ofc I expected a tad bit more but overall it's a solid and lit project I mean it's not the first LIR but I still enjoyed it entirely and now I'm going to sleep night night y'all ✌️🤘®® Edit: listening to neon guts while baked was the best shit ever btw 😂®

I think uzi didn't live up to expectations, for x I'd say yeah he did live up to his expectations since people weren't fuckin with him that much after xxl

1:55 , What about tracks like "The Way Life Goes" and "Dark Queen" not to mention 'XO TOUR LIIF3" all had a pretty clear cut message to his audience. Im no lil uzi fan but this album was a pleasant surprise for me. I respect this channel and its opinions but im gonna have to call them out for this one.

the good ol' days
