they're an absolute clown

experimental in what sense

this dummy counts this as experimental I’m never getting that dance album

it felt more like a natural progression than anything lmao

Hollygrove, f*** nigga. Meet me there, better yet BEAT me there! Wit dem D***S too!

if a rapper covering chop suey w autotune isn't experimental idk wtf is

cmon now dude was rapping over wwe intros n sht

*barely covering it, one of the most recognizable heavy songs of all time

*badly

*doing karaoke

well i liked it

ok but even if u think it's bad, u gotta admit it's still experimental lol

As experimental as ya man's off Ketamine at the karaoke bar deciding he got some hate on his soul

not good ≠ not experimental

I'm telling you it's not experimental. At all

ok somehow u dont think a rapper doing a cover of chop suey is experimental. idk how?? but fine.

how r u going 2 tell me that sht w babymetal wasn't experimental.

That babymetal was experimental but that like the bmth song was given almost totally done to Uzi. On top of that it's 1 of 3 heavier songs on there. A varied album definitely. But experimental? FOH

what do u take experimental to mean?

i always thought experimental meant experimenting with s***, yk like doing stuff that isn't conventional for the genre, or doing stuff that isn't conventional for the artist in question. to me, covering chop suey and making songs w actual rock bands isn't conventional at all for rap, or for lil uzi, so i say it's experimental.

what's ur understanding of that label tho?

I feel like a big part of this is also the full extent of the label - "experimental" vs "experimental album"

Those handful of songs, in my opinion, certainly are experimental as far as Uzi's body of work is concerned, but 3 or 4 unique tracks like that don't make it an experimental album by any stretch of the imagination, especially when it's as big of an album as it is.

When you've got a 26 track album, and only like 6 of the songs could really be considered unique/experimental at all, I think at most I'd call it an ambitious body of work, but the majority of the project is still pretty safe imo

i agree w u on that, there's a lot of songs that aren't experimental at all

but idk there's a lot of weird songs too lol. i think it being such a long album makes this tricky, there's enough there to form two separate albums, one completely normal and the other totally experimental.

Yeah if he had dropped an album with just the rage and rock tracks interspersed together, then we definitely could have looked at this as something pretty distinct and unique

As it stands it does feel a bit like an album by someone who wants to try and have his cake and eat it too - he wants to appease fans of the "old Uzi," he wants to touch base with the vibe that Carti kicked off on WLR, and he also wants to push into the rock scene that he's such a fan of.

There are definitely admirable moments imo, but it's all over the place

i feel like i could probably make music as good as lil uzi like bro just says nonsense on someones beat

ngl i didn't mind that. i mean he called it pink tape, not pink album. old uzi 100% back tho no need for quotes

i worked as a recording engineer for a few years, i saw my fair share of rappers. none of them could do flows or melodies like uzi 🤷‍♂️.

and the ones that got close couldn't go a full song without saying some s*** that made me cringe.

uzi sounds effortless but trust me s*** is not easy
