    yeaaaa chrome heart tags top 1 on ea right alongside venetia

    and maybe lo mein

    Venetia mad underrated, probably because it blends in with all the other tracks he did on Brandon production during that period (or at least i assume it's Brandon based on the exotic sound)

    I personally really like it

    See that's the thing it's supposed to be this emotional album about love but Uzi has never had something interesting to say about love or emotions

    When it comes to the emo sounding stuff Juice WRLD actually said interesting stuff about that without sounding too corny most of the time

    With Uzi just give me straight melodies and a lot of good flows

    The only misses on EA for me were the corny I'm Sorry & the lazy ass P2 song that was basically a worse XO TL and they both fall into that category i was speaking on

    But LIR2 def has it's gems

    i like im sorry honestly but agreed about pt2 even though it grew on me

    Bust Me & Secure The Bag Bust Me probably has one of the best melodies on there and Secure The Bag actually sounds like it embodies the sound he was initially going for with EA

    I heavily agree on P2 though, from the first moment i heard that i hated it and it left a REALLY sour taste being the closer to a very enjoyable album. So lazy, and again the reddit fanbase eats it up

    It's good to see that Uzi sounds more confident in his own vision recently, we def won't be getting another P2 on Pink Tape

    oh yea bust me one of them ones too its up there

    The beat switch >>>

    3 HUNNA FOR A 2 DOOR BENZ is the single most catchy sounding part of EA for me

    That s*** was stuck in my head for the whole ass month after the release

    Bust Me is fire. Venetia as well. Honestly mostly talking about Urgency and P2. Prices and Secure The Bag are just ok for me

    Yeah P2, Urgency and I'm Sorry my defenitive bottom 3 off EA

    Everything else absolutely flames imo

    One reason i sometimes may sound critical or harsh on Uzi is because he's always been one of my favs but i don't feel that it comes together when he actually drops

    It's just frustrating to me when i see Travis cook up projects like Rodeo & Astroworld and i feel like Uzi should have been up there too

    I always end up feeling like my personal folder with leaked grails hit harder than a bunch of the s*** he drops officially

    But i got high hopes for Pink Tape nonetheless

    This is my personal example of everything i love about Uzi

    Especially the flow he unlocks in his last verse

    Still can't believe we got this in CDQ

    !https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8fl2tLKAlo

    Insane to me that he sat on this for so long

    The wordplay & flow & delivery is as you say, peak-Uzi

    Only criticism is that the beat is a bit bland, maybe too safe for Uzi’s standards

    I think the beat is fine, it's more of the same from that EA era but it gives Uzi room to shine with his voice and flow and i personally like that sort of production anyway

    I remember we all connected with the producer to drop it but Uzi ghosted him lol so i was pleasently suprised when we got this on Red + White, if anything i thought it would have just leaked randomly some day

    How so? The vocals in XO TL actually carry a lot more emotion and energy

    I like the lyrics better on p2 I should say

    I don’t really like xo tour llif3 if I’m being honest

    I feel this 100%

    Sometimes I forget people aren’t walking around with all those EA leaks on their phones

    I probably listen to as much unreleased Uzi as I do officially released Uzi

    So many tracks that got leaked deserve the most praise that they unfortunately never will receive

    That’s why i’m okay with Pink Tape being lengthy, it must be hard to narrow an Uzi project down to 16 tracks when he is pumping out high-quality so consistently

    I don’t really like xo tour llif3 if I’m being honest

    It's been overplayed for me too like what happens with most smash hits but idk man the vibe he captured on there was way more authentic than on P2 so that makes it a non-brainer for me to pick that one over the other

    As far as lyrics go, they always kind of trash i don't really pay attention to them with Uzi it's the last thing i listen to him for

    I still remember shaking my head when i heard him rap about a p**** being sticky

    Deluxe off LIR2 is insane, if he replaced some of the base album tracks with those i could see it being his best for sure

    Yeah during pre EA days i felt like a fiend so i kinda detached myself from a lot of Uzi news besides the odd grail leak here and there

    And tbh it feels good that way bc i was lowkey going crazy during that wait for new Uzi music

    Now that we got a confirmed date i can fully let myself be part of the hype train again. I will be here day 1 with all of yall enjoying this great new music

    did he say june 30 explicitly? feel like it would be weird not to drop it on pink day seeing as it's still a friday and only a week early

    new bundle rules by Billboard start the 30th thats why. He also said the 30th in the group chat (uzi)

    That being said he could still fool us and drop on Pink Day, but realistically we should not get our hopes up for the full album. Def getting SOMETHING tho on Pink Day. Probably cover/tracklist is my best guess
