YAHHA-YAHHH-YOOOO – Lil Uzi Vert comes to Altria in May

by | Apr 5, 2017 | HIP HOP & RAP

I just keep rasping out my throat trying to make Lil Uzi Vert noises and I probably wont ever stop – and you can hear them in person (and from the real source) when the rapper comes to town later this Spring.

Symere Woods AKA Lil Uzi Vert is a Philly-based rapper who has managed to tap into America’s youth with his weird videos, relatable lyrics and sick beats. He started dropping tapes in 2015 with help from heavy hitters like Wiz Khalifa and Young Thug. From there he scooped a deal with Atlantic’s subsidiary Generation Now.

Most recently he’s featured as a guest on fellow-Altria performer MIGOS mega-hit “Bad and Boujee.”

In mid-March he dropped the incredibly depressing but still catchy “XO TOUR Llif3” which features the refreshing lyric “all my friends are dead” repeated many many times. Check it out below:

Is it any good? Is it mumble rap? I donno man, don’t over think it… and head to the Altria’s website At 10 a.m. Friday, April 7 – AltriaTheater.com, etix.com, or charge by phone at (800) 514-3849.
