    Also this is the correct take. LUV vs. the World 2/EA Deluxe is a fun tape of bonus songs featuring all the artists we want to hear him rap with, but EA is on another level.

    @Donkey Kong Cuntry just listened to all the songs you posted

    XO Tour Lif3 - sounds familiar, I guess it was a big hit and I heard it without playing it myself cause it was playing everywhere. Never knew it was from him, great track saved it.
    2nd one - pretty boring for me nothing special about it
    3rd one - liked and saved it after the first 30 seconds, it has that 808s & Heartbreak feeling.
    4th one - the only thing good about this one is the beat and the chorus
    5th one - decent but I don't think I'm going to play it ever again.

    Also I'm not against new rap/trap even though I grew up with artists that could rap their a----s off. I love Juice WRLD(and not because he passed away, I was checking everything he put out prior to that) Rod Wave, 6lack. some Lil Baby here and there, DaBaby, and I usually catch all these new artists(like that uzi feat on wayne's album) only when they're featured on projects from artists I like or if you guys post them here.

    Very rare time when squeed is wrong. Song is a classic off the strength of the kapernick line and also when he says she sucks his d-ck until it decapitates

    Ah sorry @aleeex1972 assumed you weren't into newer rap just cuz you agreed with the other guy who said he didn't understand the appeal of this type of music other than background at a party.

    You might like some songs off of Luv Is Rage 2 then, I'd say that album has the most songs similar to the vibe of Paradise:

    The first LIR is the best to me off the strength of paradise alone. I remember hearing that and being like “ok we have cudi 2.0 on our hands”. Wish he explored that a bit more

    Yeah maybe it was a mistake saying I fully agree with him. What I was trying to say is that sometimes I see some new songs with tons of views and hype around them and here I am asking myself "what's so special about this one" and I feel like a grandpa for not understanding why.

    I'll check the full project rn on Spotify.

    Yeah Paradise was the song that sold me on Uzi and made me feel like he had so much untapped potential that he never fully realized till LIR2 and onwards to me.

    i loved xo tour life and ps and qs, i don’t really dismiss newer rap i just think it works best like those two songs. it’s more like pop with more words than rap music to me.

    So weird that Paradise was the track that turned so many Uzi skeptics on to him. That track took some time to grow on me. But once it did, I finally realized that it's probably the best song on that whole tape.

    Yeah I agree its why I was a bit disapointed with EA.
    Still a good album but not as great as I thought it would be

    My man Uzi even makes bangers for Pokemon Movies, I'd love to see him going down this pop route more frequently:


    Also I BADLY NEED this if it ever sees the light of day
