Joe Budden gave a scathing review of Lil Uzi Vert’s album, Pink Tape, even though it is the only album to reach number 1 on Billboard this year.
“Uzi did respond to the comments he’s been making about ‘experimental tapes,’ and ‘the real tape is coming,’ blasé bah,. He spoke to Ak [Akademiks] about it,” said Budden.
He continued: “Now, I appreciate any artist that’s trying, so I don’t want to take away from that. But that was a crock of sh-t. Because that goes out the window once you sell it to me. It’s not… you’re not trying anymore. This is the product that you’re selling. If the plumber come over to fix some sh-t, and wanna try out some new methods, you should’ve did that sh-t before you got here. Once you’re here to do the service. Fix the sh-t. Don’t experiment.”
Lil Uzi Vert’s third studio album “Pink Tape” was released on June 29, 2023 and he sold over 165,466 units in his first week.
Budden is retired from rap.
