Rap News4 hours ago0 comments

Lil Uzi Vert recently spoke about how he used to spend big money on brands. Uzi mentioned Kanye West while talking about some personal lyrics. He said he spent millions on Balenciaga and other designer items. This was back in 2020 when he was often hanging out with Kanye West. This spending influenced his album Eternal Atake. ## Uzi Vert’s Spending Habits

Lil Uzi Vert shared details about his spending habits in a new interview. He said he was swiping his card to the max around that time. The reason for this was keeping up with Kanye West. He mentioned that Kanye West also had a heavy tab. Uzi admitted that West was spending millions, and he was too. However, he felt Kanye West could afford it much more than him. This came up when he selected a lyric that means a lot to him.

Reflecting on “POP” Lyrics

The discussion about spending habits led Uzi to a specific lyric. He brought up the third verse from his song “POP”. In that part of the song, he repeats the word “Balenci'” over a dozen times. This repetition reflects the significant amount of money he was spending on that brand. It showed how much designer fashion was part of his life at that point. Uzi found this period influential for his music.

Thoughts on Next Album

Elsewhere in the interview, Lil Uzi Vert touched on his upcoming album. He explained that he has many different flows he can use. He feels his fans sometimes don’t appreciate his big mainstream songs. They often ask for a more “trapped-out Uzi.” Then, when he makes a trap song, they say he’s capable of making higher quality music. To handle this, Uzi creates music in two different genres. He releases his “real drops” on holidays or with a countdown. He hasn’t officially announced his next project yet.

No Pressure for New Music

Fans are eager for another full-length project since Eternal Atake 2 dropped in 2024. However, Uzi stated he doesn’t feel any pressure. He said everyone living their own lives is fine. He noted that people who pay too much attention to him often think he’s better than them. They seem to expect him to drop an album every year. Despite the demand, Uzi remains unconcerned about the release timeline for his next project
