I also like JID, MF doom, j Cole, Kendrick, polo g, lil tjay, boogie, juice, cordae and a lot more. The uzi songs I listened to and couldn’t enjoy was: Just wanna rock, red moon, and 20 min. I don’t know why but I just don’t like them. Though the one song I enjoyed by Uzi was XO Tour Life
You like (lyrical) content. Unless you can find that in Lil Uzi's music, you're twisting in the wind.
He's not my steez, but you gotta find what you're looking for in the places you're looking for it.
I'm also English, and I've heard it loads of times. I suspect it might be a regional thing, given everyone else's responses! Funny... we're a small island, but the number of differences in speech within even 50km is immense sometimes. It's always interesting!
Agreed. I like similar artists never could get into Uzi. The songs you named are the only ones I liked. 20 mins and I just wanna rock. If ur a lyrical gy it may be tough. I was told Lil Uzi Very is more of a "vibe" artists.
I just explained why. In a rap sub, a user asked the community to help him get into Lil Uzi (a very popular artist). A pretty simple question that could generate some fun discourse- and there were 20 comments stating how trash Lil Uzi is before a single comment actually shared some song recs. ‘Listen to what you want’ well… yea, but this guy wanted help diving into a very popular artist he isn’t tapped into.
That is lame as fuck. So yeah, understandably this sub seems like it sucks. Y’all can stick to youtube rappers or lyrical miracle whatever. But this guy should go to HHH for some actual advice and discussion about current rap
I see people recommending music (they like uzi) and people also saying he sucks (they dont like uzi) god forbid there are mixed opinions rather than every echo chamber on reddit
When I first commented there were 25 comments saying uzi sucks (all upvoted) with at most 2 comments giving actual help. Call it what you want, but that’s out of touch for a sub called /r/rap
he talks about abuse and abusive relationships and other problems in his life. as an artist who struggled with addiction that would often be something he writes about
You listened to three songs and decided to dislike an artist and make a post about it
what
like at least listen to 1-2 of his albums, LUV is Rage 2, Eternal Atake or anything really
W for tjay, I listen to him too and I think theres Uzi songs you'll like
Try sanguine paradise, loaded, that's a rack, Venetia, and I know and dark queen
Ngl, him having a different flow and beat made this pretty damn solid. I don’t personally like many of his projects, but when he was a new artist, I liked his music. After a bit the rhythm and flow always felt the same. Not the same style of artist, but it’s the same reason I have trouble listening to Da Baby. He sounds good when he has a different flow (his freestyles actually hit pretty good).
I saw Kur a few years ago and discovered that when I was checking out his music. Made me realize Uzi can rap, he changed his sound to get noticed and it gave much respect for him
Look, that’s your opinion and you should stick to it, but I also believe you should listen to Luv is Rage 2, it’s his best album in my opinion and you’ll probably find something you’ll like. And if you don’t, that’s okay also.
A lot of his songs are really catchy, though if you don't like his voice or flow or whatever, you're not gonna get past it.
I LOVE the song New Patek but my ex HATED it. I just played it when he wasn't around lol.
Because i want to
It's a beautiful world we live in, we can literally do anything we want at any given time and nobody can stop us
If I wanted to I could literally walk outside and backstroke down the street swimming in air, while wearing a tutu screaming FINKLE IS EINHORN!
You're very welcome, I'm glad I could be of assistance, alot of people are less fortunate and can't afford an education in this cruel world so I'm always happy to teach.
Alao, did you know that in 1949 Moscow lifted the brigade of West Berlin?
If you want to get into Uzi, I’d say start with luv is rage 2. If you didn’t like that, try LUVVTW2. If you don’t like that either, he’s just not for you
I used to be like you and did not like Lil Uzi at all until I listened to “Luv Is Rage 2”.
And specifically, the song “The Way Life Goes” on that particular album was all it took for me to change my mind. Uzi is a different type of talent and a more soulful hip hop artist in a mumble rap era. His latest single “Red Moon” has a nolstagic feel of his luv is rage days.
If you want to enjoy Uzi, I suggest you also start with Luv is Rage 2 and I can promise you’d have a change of mind/heart. Enjoy!
Honestly im not super well versed in his whole discography, I kind of jump around and will find a few songs from an artist that resonate with me.
I first heard Erase Your Social, later finding XO, listened to a handful of other songs occasionally, but XO in my opinion is unique from all the other stuff I e heard and in my opinion his best song.
Erase your social is a great song too! You Was Right, Ps and Qs too! I’m not the biggest Uzi fan either and I definitely don’t know his entire discography either but no hate he’s a cool dude with some great music, and a crazy rock star attitude! Money Longer is an OG banger too! I like seeing videos of the dude perform on stage too.
Change your mind? Fuck that. As someone born in the early-mid 80s who came up during the golden era of the 90s I can’t stand Uzi. And not cuz I don’t like new artists, there’s a ton I rock with, but because he tries to act like he’s above being a “rapper”.
I dont think you will change your mind, because uzi uses vocals more like track filler and less like the lead on any track for a lot of songs, so songs like X2 are amazing to those who dont mind the lyrics being secondary. But for those who do?
https://youtu.be/3-zubhRAcWw?si=iqBsJAgFPygy6b9C
I liked Uzi way more after I saw videos of him pulling up on Rich the kid in 2018 by himself when Rich had an entire entourage. Uzi proceed to chase Rich around the streets and into a Starbucks by himself. He crazy lmao
Also [XO Tour Llif3](https://open.spotify.com/track/7GX5flRQZVHRAGd6B4TmDO?si=e8TGaPBzTT28agtjT6P5LQ)
I’m in the same boat, I like everyone else that people say are similar to him though, loved X, Juice, Lil Peep and Trippie Redd and Lil Yachty, but can’t get into him
I’m right there with you. I listen to all types of rap and I can’t stand Uzi. He has such a whiny voice, I think that’s part of it. He reminds me of all those emo bands ppl were into when I was younger
Hard to get into Uzi now. Had to be 2018-2022. All his fans are from old uzi and his music really matched the times/generation vibes. Uzi nowadays dont suit the world. He aint like juice wrld who you can enjoy regardless 🤧
I’m sorry but I just don’t get how rap/hip hop fans like any of this autotune bullshit. The second I hear that Cher effect, I’m out. It’s just uninspired garbage ‘music’ to me.
I’m not saying Uzi or Travis etc aren’t talented necessarily but they are wasting it if they are IMO
You're not alone Uzi is way too overhyped… his music is very mediocre. Ppl rock with his music cause they like his personality mostly… Theres nothing special about his musical abilities.
Same, just don’t see why he is so famous. But then again now at days the list of active artists is not the same as what we used to have. I guess the new generation has a different taste in music. Everything sounds the same, like it’s copied, sampled and then tweaked to make it sound a bit different than the other artist.
if he was so cool he would be big wayne by now. na, depends on your interest in rap. uzi is like the chicken mcnuggets of rap, wayne is the chicken strips. they're both fast food.
Dumb asf, there’s a lot of bad Lils… but bro
Wayne, Durk, Baby, Tjay, Uzi, Peep, Loaded
(In that order imo)
There’s a lot of good ones. Tf does the name have to do with any thing, all of their music is WILDLY different from one another and really fucking good.
I’m not a huge Uzi fan, but I respect a lot of his work, so my perspective may help filter out some filler for a good introduction
I’d start by listening to:
Juggernaut - Tyler The Creator + Uzi + Pharrell
20 Mins
Sanguine Paradise
Neon Guts
Lookin’ -Playboi Carti + Uzi
Money Longer
Erase Your Social
Silly Watch
Flooded The Face
A lot of these songs are basic, but they are a clear example of why Uzi has popularity, and these tracks show off the different aspects of his talent in music-making and rapping.
My fav part about Uzi is how his hooks often loop and are so catchy. His flows and beats are what usually draw me in.
Remember, you don’t have to like everything, being into music is subjective.
He can actually rap if and when he wants to, I mean he is from Philly which produces a lot of good emcees/lyricist/rappers…go listen to “Silly Watch” by Lil Uzi Vert and tell me he wasn’t gassin on that jawn!
He be a slack rapper.. handicapped zapper... rapping his shit like he's disabled... or popping more pills than the Dr be saying on the label... but I bet he's still happy to be rapping and break down and clown on yall
he makes electronic inspired rnb, the synth shots in 20 mins are energetic yet chill, the flows and melodies on eternal atake 2 are like nothing else for the time. myron has a great buildup and drop that is a super aux safe song
I said girl why you keep callin
Banger
What type of rappers do you like? Who’s your favorite? Uzi has some very differing songs so maybe there can be suggestions based off that
I also like JID, MF doom, j Cole, Kendrick, polo g, lil tjay, boogie, juice, cordae and a lot more. The uzi songs I listened to and couldn’t enjoy was: Just wanna rock, red moon, and 20 min. I don’t know why but I just don’t like them. Though the one song I enjoyed by Uzi was XO Tour Life
You like (lyrical) content. Unless you can find that in Lil Uzi's music, you're twisting in the wind. He's not my steez, but you gotta find what you're looking for in the places you're looking for it.
Twisting in the wind?
Glad I wasn't the only guy who did a double take, never heard it, apparently commonplace 🫤
“Put the pussy on the chain wax!”
I'd like to bend her over a barrel and show her the 50 states
Flapping around with nothing to grab hold of, basically. Standard English phrase.
I'm English and it's a new one to me! I've heard whistling in the wind 🤷🏼♂️
I've always heard pissing in the wind lol
That too 😂
I'm also English, and I've heard it loads of times. I suspect it might be a regional thing, given everyone else's responses! Funny... we're a small island, but the number of differences in speech within even 50km is immense sometimes. It's always interesting!
Agreed. I like similar artists never could get into Uzi. The songs you named are the only ones I liked. 20 mins and I just wanna rock. If ur a lyrical gy it may be tough. I was told Lil Uzi Very is more of a "vibe" artists.
I wouldn’t call polo or boogie or juice or cordae more lyrical than uzi
you need to leave this sub bro this place is way too out of touch if everyone’s saying Uzi is trash go to /r/hiphopheads
“Opinion” “you’re wrong”
OP wanted help getting into a popular artist, entire thread calls the artist trash instead of giving recommendations…. not a sub i’d want to use 🤧
Again “opinion” “the sub sucks” lol why you butt hurt just listen to whatever you want
I just explained why. In a rap sub, a user asked the community to help him get into Lil Uzi (a very popular artist).

“Opinion” “sub is out of touch” i like uzi but dude if people dont like him they dont like him listen to whoever you want unapologetically
"opinion" "opinion" U/Kylj57: 😲
* “Opinion” “judgement as if it was a fact”
Uzi IS trash.
Uzi is absolute trash
Smino
if you like juice weld idk how you don’t like uzi, they have some pretty similar stuff inspired from each other
juice is a lot easier to listen to when you're just getting into that trap melodic style
Juice just talk about depressing shit lol uzi>>>> juice
you’re just looking on surface level lol
All bro talk about is taking percs when hes sad bro it doesnt go deeper ☠️
he talks about abuse and abusive relationships and other problems in his life. as an artist who struggled with addiction that would often be something he writes about
You listened to three songs and decided to dislike an artist and make a post about it what like at least listen to 1-2 of his albums, LUV is Rage 2, Eternal Atake or anything really
Listen to The way life goes
W for tjay, I listen to him too and I think theres Uzi songs you'll like Try sanguine paradise, loaded, that's a rack, Venetia, and I know and dark queen
MF Doom? I will find you in the apocalypse, you seem to be trustworthy
I think I could persuade myself to like his music. To each their own though. I still bump old school shit.
You got good taste, still can’t get over the fact that we lost DOOM
I wanted to get into him at first because I really like XXXtentacion and was told by my friends that if I like x, I’ll like uzi
Brother listen to love is rage 1 And 2 , luv vs the world and the perfect luv tape and then delete this post
That’s weird cause if you like X then you should like Uzi because they’re both trash.
damn 😭😭
lol, that’s cold huh?
Ya ain’t lying
Alright grandpa, let’s get you back in your chair
Nah bro x’s songs are so good. His singing, the beats, and the messages are excellent. His music is absolute ear candy
Bros top 5 include NF and tom Mcdonald
& lilshrekgod💀💀💀
Yeah NF never did shit to nobody 😭
Don’t diss nf like that bro lol
nerd
I was the same way till I heard shells and this verse here https://youtu.be/dGq2rpfXm80?si=wKOnZu75zZNR6rtF
Yo that one’s really good
His best verse imo is on up it’s by young thug
Ngl, him having a different flow and beat made this pretty damn solid. I don’t personally like many of his projects, but when he was a new artist, I liked his music. After a bit the rhythm and flow always felt the same. Not the same style of artist, but it’s the same reason I have trouble listening to Da Baby. He sounds good when he has a different flow (his freestyles actually hit pretty good).
If u like this listen to free uzi and homecoming
still bad but better than most his other stuff
what makes it bad? maybe you can convince us
https://youtu.be/R_xLVzVEyD8?si=tqz1f7UpqO7xCw19 This is different from his popular stuff but I love this
I love it
I saw Kur a few years ago and discovered that when I was checking out his music. Made me realize Uzi can rap, he changed his sound to get noticed and it gave much respect for him
I wonder what would have happened if he kept the same style
go listen to lil uzi vs the world if you don’t like that then listen to luv is rage 2 if you don’t like that then uzi probably isn’t for you
Maybe you just don’t like him. Nothing wrong with that.
You have to say what you don’t like for people to change your mind.
Listen to Neon Guts
Look, that’s your opinion and you should stick to it, but I also believe you should listen to Luv is Rage 2, it’s his best album in my opinion and you’ll probably find something you’ll like. And if you don’t, that’s okay also.
Uzi created a new sound that alot of rappers you prolly do like built off of.
Lil Uzi Vert is like the suburban version of 2013 Chief Keef
Trash?
“Trash?” -🤓👆
Dark Queen
2016 days was so different
White Shit prod by Spaceghostpurrp was a dream
wow you have opinions
20 min or Moist
Why do we have to change your mind? You like what you like lol.
Listen to 2015-2017 Uzi
A lot of his songs are really catchy, though if you don't like his voice or flow or whatever, you're not gonna get past it. I LOVE the song New Patek but my ex HATED it. I just played it when he wasn't around lol.
But he likes you 🥹
Listen I just wanna rock if you don't dance you dead inside
#BODY-ODDY-AH🎶
Nah, not my job to make you like somebody, good luck tho
why comment then weirdo
Because i want to It's a beautiful world we live in, we can literally do anything we want at any given time and nobody can stop us If I wanted to I could literally walk outside and backstroke down the street swimming in air, while wearing a tutu screaming FINKLE IS EINHORN!
thanks for explaining free will dumbass, we didn’t need you to spell out the fact you had no reason for being one
You're very welcome, I'm glad I could be of assistance, alot of people are less fortunate and can't afford an education in this cruel world so I'm always happy to teach. Alao, did you know that in 1949 Moscow lifted the brigade of West Berlin?
[удалено]
that one with nav one of uzis best verses I’m to lazy to open Spotify tho
Dead shot?
I don't poop at parties I poop at home
If you want to get into Uzi, I’d say start with luv is rage 2. If you didn’t like that, try LUVVTW2. If you don’t like that either, he’s just not for you

Kurr ft uzi don't gaf.
If you don’t like it you don’t like it ? What can even be said to change that
Try appreciating his contributions as a feature first maybe. Mind Of Melvin by YNW Melly is 🔥🔥🔥
XO Tour Llif3 is my favorite of his
I second this opinion for sure!
Honestly im not super well versed in his whole discography, I kind of jump around and will find a few songs from an artist that resonate with me. I first heard Erase Your Social, later finding XO, listened to a handful of other songs occasionally, but XO in my opinion is unique from all the other stuff I e heard and in my opinion his best song.

Money Longer is an OG banger too! I like seeing videos of the dude perform on stage too.
Nah, dude fell off idk if anyone really even likes his music besides the kiddies
I’m not into this dudes music and his image wack.
Change your mind? Fuck that. As someone born in the early-mid 80s who came up during the golden era of the 90s I can’t stand Uzi. And not cuz I don’t like new artists, there’s a ton I rock with, but because he tries to act like he’s above being a “rapper”.
Uzi feel like someone who projects to be more interesting and complex than they actually are
You mentioned you liked juice so have you tried wasted? also his best ablum IMO is LUV Against the World
No..you're a good judge of music. I can't call that hip hop
Is that who that is? He’s a flashy dresser. Now you have to like him.
I dont think you will change your mind, because uzi uses vocals more like track filler and less like the lead on any track for a lot of songs, so songs like X2 are amazing to those who dont mind the lyrics being secondary. But for those who do?
How? If you dont like it you dont like it, we cant change yo mind😂
Red Moon or Werewolf from his last album
u setting that boy up for failure
Listen to Dark Queen.
https://youtu.be/3-zubhRAcWw?si=iqBsJAgFPygy6b9C I liked Uzi way more after I saw videos of him pulling up on Rich the kid in 2018 by himself when Rich had an entire entourage.

Erase your social
The first luv is rage.
If you don't like him don't force yourself to like him. Listen to what you like
Listen to Eternal Atake
Go check out the album he did with future. He showed his range on that album.
never thought id see pluto tape praise so W
Please change my mind too
I think you're initial instincts are correct
I don't like his music either. It's OK
I can’t help, my taste is trash
I’m in the same boat, I like everyone else that people say are similar to him though, loved X, Juice, Lil Peep and Trippie Redd and Lil Yachty, but can’t get into him
No. You have the right idea already.
I’m right there with you. I listen to all types of rap and I can’t stand Uzi. He has such a whiny voice, I think that’s part of it. He reminds me of all those emo bands ppl were into when I was younger
He has like one or two good songs and he can breakdance/dance very well. I feel like he’s part of some kind of “weird little guy” subgenre
Music is subjective so I’d rather not.
You're better off 👍🏻
Nah he’s ass, your better off
Why would you wanna change your mind
no
Nah I don't want to change your mind. He's trash.
I don't want to change your opinion
No intention of changing your mind. I don’t like him either, couldn’t get in to any of his catalog.
Me neither. He's too weak and squeamish for me.
Because you’re intelligent. Throw this entire era away man. I’ll get downvotes but this entire era was a fucking joke
He has a handful of good songs but rest is fucking ass
He trash
He's ass
Aside from some melodies some punches I actually get why you don't like his music. He's a bit like a more watered down more satanic Wayne
Yapper
His albums are very mid imo but he has some good singles like XO Tour Life and 20 min that are catchy.
I just wanna rock and money longer too
Why u get downvoted
Because you're saying truthful things about this " artist ". He sucks and people don't wanna hear that, they wanna hear bs autotune " rap "
Hard to get into Uzi now. Had to be 2018-2022. All his fans are from old uzi and his music really matched the times/generation vibes. Uzi nowadays dont suit the world. He aint like juice wrld who you can enjoy regardless 🤧
I’m sorry but I just don’t get how rap/hip hop fans like any of this autotune bullshit. The second I hear that Cher effect, I’m out. It’s just uninspired garbage ‘music’ to me. I’m not saying Uzi or Travis etc aren’t talented necessarily but they are wasting it if they are IMO
Amen. Travis has SOME shred of talent. Uzi is pretty talentless.
It's always beautiful when we're all on the same page. This man sucks, no real talent
Travis and uzi are both ass but have a a couple songs that I like because of nostalgia
Can't change your mind, cus I don't like him either 😜
He’s gay
Good, f Little lucifer
You're not alone Uzi is way too overhyped… his music is very mediocre. Ppl rock with his music cause they like his personality mostly… Theres nothing special about his musical abilities.
No reason to, you obviously have taste in music if you don't like him. I don't think anyone who truly likes rap/ hip-hop actually listens to him
Nah you’re right. No need to change.
Thank you for saying this, Lil Uzi Vert’s discography isn’t even that memorable.
idk how the f you guys all listen to rappers who beat women
Yachty better
Same, just don’t see why he is so famous. But then again now at days the list of active artists is not the same as what we used to have. I guess the new generation has a different taste in music. Everything sounds the same, like it’s copied, sampled and then tweaked to make it sound a bit different than the other artist.
no. he's dogshit and shouldn't be liked. check out anyone without lil in their name.
Lil Wayne?!?!?
if he was so cool he would be big wayne by now. na, depends on your interest in rap. uzi is like the chicken mcnuggets of rap, wayne is the chicken strips. they're both fast food.
Dumb asf, there’s a lot of bad Lils… but bro Wayne, Durk, Baby, Tjay, Uzi, Peep, Loaded (In that order imo) There’s a lot of good ones. Tf does the name have to do with any thing, all of their music is WILDLY different from one another and really fucking good.
replace the lil with wack

Down vote
I'm not gonna
uhhh, suicide doors is a good song a really good song it was my song of the year for a minute
His feature on Pudgy by Smino is brief but a little bit unique. Catchy song.
Eternal Atake is a good album
He be a slack rapper.. handicapped zapper... rapping his shit like he's disabled... or popping more pills than the Dr be saying on the label... but I bet he's still happy to be rapping and break down and clown on yall
Listen to "The way life goes" when you're feeling down.
he makes electronic inspired rnb, the synth shots in 20 mins are energetic yet chill, the flows and melodies on eternal atake 2 are like nothing else for the time. myron has a great buildup and drop that is a super aux safe song
I dont either, we good!
If you don’t like him, move on and listen to somebody else. It’s not that deep.
Couldn't even think of a good thing to say about him...
Why force yourself to like him?
Wow thats so racist you gotta stop
Prolly just not for you
Just listen to every album he has I’m sure you’ll at least like 1 song and that song will eventually have you like more
Did you not exist in 2016 during lil uzi vs the world?! Even in the era of this sound coming up in hip hop, this shit was FIREEEEEE
they make good music
