LIL UZI VERT XO TOUR LLIF3 ZIPPYSHARE FOR FREE

As countless commentators noticed, he owed as much to the example of rock artists - whether punk, pop-punk, or shock rock - as he did to that of rappers. Like Will Smith, the Roots, and Eve before him, Uzi offered a homegrown alternative to the prevailing Philly paradigm, but his style had little in common with any of these outliers. While those artists made their names focusing on the cold, bare facts of urban violence and deprivation, Lil Uzi had opted for a different mode of presentation - one where leaping 20 feet into a sea of fans, as he did at MiamiвЂ™s Rolling Loud festival over the past weekend, was considered normal. Born Symere Woods in Philadelphia, the artist had carved out a style of his own that shared little in common with the classic heritage of Philly street rap inaugurated by Schoolly D in the вЂ™80s, sustained by Beanie Sigel and crew in the late вЂ™90s and early 2000s, and most prominently represented by Meek Mill in the 2010s.

When Uzi rose to prominence in 2016, he seemed to do so in contrast to the dominant tradition of rap in his home city. Melding nerdy animations and rock-star habits with fashion-mongering, Atlanta trap production, and Auto-Tuned vocals, the song is the clearest proof heвЂ™s developed a distinct and inimitable sound of his own. Popularity doesnвЂ™t always equate to quality, but вЂњXO Tour Llif3,вЂќ along with being Lil UziвЂ™s biggest song, happens to be his best, as well as an ideal introduction to him.

Released for free at the end of February, Lil Uzi VertвЂ™s вЂњXO Tour Llif3вЂќ has rapidly proven itself to be the most popular song of the young Philadelphia artistвЂ™s career, racking up over 70 million listens on SoundCloud alone later rereleased on Spotify and Apple, the songвЂ™s streaming numbers have lifted it to the upper reaches of the Billboard Hot 100. Although Uzi's post-breakup pain rears its head throughout the entirety of the album, many of the tracks are too fun to get too bogged down in emotions.Photo: Christopher Polk/Getty Images for Coachella For pure thrills, 'Early 20 Rager' booms, a stomping stand out that injects an undeniable energy to Luv Is Rage 2. The hypnotic 'For Real' bounces along a blipping beat provided by DJ Plugg and Bobby Kritical, it's one of the best produced moments on the album.

The catchiness of the track is contrasted by its dour subject matter, giving Luv Is Rage 2 an appreciable depth. Despite featuring high-profile guests like Pharrell Williams ('Neon Guts') and the Weeknd ('UnFazed'), Uzi fares better on his own, his oddball personality and endearing uniqueness adding flavor to highlights like 'Two В®' and 'Sauce It Up.' A sample of Oh Wonder's 'Landslide' elevates single 'The Way Life Goes,' a melodic pop moment that finds Uzi in a tender and yearning state. While production - courtesy of Don Cannon, TM88, Metro Boomin, WondaGurl, and more - improved upon that of his mixtapes, the colorful lyrical content remained as dark, hedonistic, and candid as ever, with Uzi layering rhymes about sex and drugs atop vulnerable moments relating to a tough breakup. A sequel to his 2015 mixtape, Luv Is Rage 2 celebrated Uzi's rapid ascent in the hip-hop world, marking his mainstream breakthrough with the single 'XO Tour Llife3' and peaking at the top spot of the Billboard 200. After the steady release of EPs and mixtapes in the three years following his debut, Philadelphia rapper Lil Uzi Vert finally issued his first official studio full-length in 2017.
