I’ve been an Uzi fan since 2016.. and man this video proves the real reason why I fw him so much. The way he is different than everybody else and stays true to himself is amazing.
uzii is one of the last icons from a time in music that changed the culture forever. 2016 was the iconic year if u were tapped in you know. the first listen to 7am was a different type of vibe. On his own shit. in my opinion hes the hendrix of the new rap generation.
This. 2016 was a historical moment in music history. 3 Uzi tapes, Birds in the trap sing mcknight, 4 your eyez only, blank face, views, sremmlife 2, purple reign. I remember that summer every week it seemed like a new one would drop and each were so quality and original and transformative in their own way. Will always be a special year.
ye agree uzi like this eras future with his grasp on the trap scene and pure hitmaking ability. Carti is like this eras thug with how tapped in he is to the music scene, his experimentation, and sheer influence. Whats crazy to think tho it that uzi is working on a project sounding like thug and cartis new voice from what we heard seems like hes taking from future for his next project. super hype
Hendrix comparison is crazy 😂😂 Hendrix was a vocalist and played 9+ instruments. I love uzi I think he makes very fun music I’ve heard all his shit but the fact he’s very replaceable most these “icons” are.
it sucks that we can’t have this type of content for x and juice anymore, imagine them sitting down w ak reflecting on their 5-6 year careers and what they’ve learned so far
shit is haunting. i love uzi but those 2 were the most polarizing & dominant artists since the drake, kendrick, cole entry era. uzi up there w them tho like if they were still alive i’d say the 10 main ones of this generation would be x juice pop uzi trav carti yachty yak 21 & trippie
uzi always seemed like a geniune and chill dude to me man. idc what no one says about pink tape whether you like it or not, i will always appreciate and respect an artist who constantly tries to evolve and try new sounds (expirmenting with different sounds). PT for me i rly liked the album, ik others might not think its his best album thats cool but me personally, i rly enjoyed it. and i also enjoyed this video real raw and honest shout out uzi and ak. cant wait for barter 16.
You can tell like he said he use to be a asshole (probably cause he was so lit at the time), but you can see the growth and the humbleness that’s happened in his life 💯
We gotta appreciate that uzi is still here making music and being himself . Shit really made me think if we lost him we probably wouldn’t think the way we are thinking rn. Him and Carti really carrying the game for the younger generation. He will be talked about for years to come as one of the most influential artist of our time and we are alive at the same time to witness it and watch him grow
@@JorgeRamirez-md3qgyou listen to Uzi and can’t agree that Carti is influential? Uzi was literally hopping on beats inspired by Carti on pink tape. There wouldn’t be like half of pink tape without wlr
Uzi is literally a living legend, genuinely cool dude whos not afraid to be himself. Ak do more of these vlogs we see a side out of everyone we dont normally see, its very casual.
Legend? Yall need to stop throwing that word around so carelessly bro.. 😂😂😂 he far from it. He needs to work his way up there and am sure if you ask Uzi himself if he's a legend he will surely deny that at the moment..
@@madgermzmuzicLegends don’t have to be from the 90s bro. Uzi’s influence on this generation is legendary. THIS NIGGA HAD MILLIONS OF GROWN MEN SHAKING THEIR HIPS!
they’ve both made it so far and it’s been really inspiring to see uzi as a 21 year old just gaining fame, buying bustdowns n rocking out shows during soundcloud era to a 28 year old who has learned from his experiences and continues to use them to make timeless music 😢
It’s crazy how all these rappers actually watch ak consistently even if they don’t acknowledge it. Kudos to uzi for giving ak his flowers and creating a way for new media
@@jonnyseablue6911 bro , wtf is wrong with people, i can’t even say that someone is good at the craft that they offer to the world bro , smh . complimenting comments can change the world in a positive manner , instead of beating people down with negativity
Lil Uzi Vert is the kind of success story that encourages me as an underground artist with a small following. Seeing how he’s developed his skills and slowly blown up after seizing each and every opportunity he’s been giving has been inspirational! Mans has quickly become a mainstay in the industry and for good reason. Dude is too nice! I know if I put in the work, I can reach a larger audience some day too, but for now, I’m happy being a supporter. My turn will come too. Salute to Lil Uzi Vert🔥
I’m down wanna stray u from your dreams but uzi didn’t work to get where he was at. He had MAJOR connects. So don’t try and compare yourself to him, but dream big lil homie
@@HUNGRYFLOWER98but u do gotta understand uzi fought to meet those major connects and sometimes stumble so u can just gotta work and put yourself and have a lil luck and u will be fine
I appreciate how Uzi always trying new shit and doing what he gotta do. No Uzi album sound the same, he always evolving and experimenting. That’s why I FW Uzi, cus he doesn’t get stale or stuck in 1 lane.
I love how AK never gets in the way of his interviews or talks with artists. They interrupt, he gives them the floor everytime. Something Vlad gotta learn lol
i feel like thats a talent ALOT of interviewers dont have but need.. like Charlemagne is excellent at allowing ppl to talk while giving his opinions or questions when they end.. SayCheese /Shawn also does a great job at that as well
Uzi Is a Big Inspiration to me when it’s comes to being yourself, He’s isn’t in the media unless it’s for music or catching stray bullets in unnecessary social media beefs
The best blog I watched sooo far this means a lot to me I always had wanted to sit down smoke laugh joke around and have conversations with people but the type of person I am it’s hard to hold one by watching these videos it helps on knowing what to say and etc
We can’t lie about Akademiks not being one of the top interviewers fr. Uzi always knows how to create some fire ass songs though. No doubt that this album will top the charts.Can’t wait for Barter 16🔥🐐💯
He talks to much and interrupt to much. He tryst to get his point across instead of letting the person get theirs across. He seems more like debator then a interviewer
Keep protecting your heart Uzi we love you from across the globe arts here and there. Up and down. As the world changes we do with it. Keep your chin up
This is why I always liked uzi cus he actually seem normal when it’s normal situations. When it’s time for his to be a star he knows how to turn it on but he’s pretty real.
🙋🏾♀️ Hi, Ms. Mabel here. Lil Uzi is HIM and has been HIM for a minute now! He is/was ahead of his time so he has time to explore, experiment with different sounds in his creative process. HE is the ONE that has been ushering in the new sound, next wave in Hip Hop. I respect him and his overall artistry because he transcends age, race, gender, socioeconomic landscapes, etc. Uzi is VERY unique and authentic with his artistry.
You speaking on the greatest hits to never make it out is me literally I got everything I need guidance I needa lock into more just venting tho love y’all all💚
Uzi been killing, and still is killing this shit till this day. Old heads like "Ebro" would never understand, or appreciate what Uzi did. He deserves a Lot of credit especially from the people who bit his style, and ain't even acknowledge him. 👽
When he (uzi) said, "When a mfka act like they really don't give af, they do, cuz it's something pressing against their heart that make them protect their energy" 🔥🔥🔥💎💎💎✨️💪🏿💯 #Facts Iont care who you are, if u ain't feel that you're not human 🤷🏿♂️
Bro everyone is dropping + uzi having a real real interview + another one in the future + another album What a great throwback this interview has been ... thanks akademiks :)
Ak!!!! Been following you since the war of chiraq days. Bro watch that weight man. Looking like you putting on more than you taking off. Health is wealth. Stay blessed
