    Pink Tape is far from perfect. If I were to described the project in word it’d be “experimental” in a good way. I think it’s pretty clear it has WLR all over the project which is a good.
    Pink Tape is an album that’s growing on me everyday and I feel like it’s breath of fresh air needed for the music industry. We don’t need to wait three years to hear the same Uzi from 2020. We need new music

    I think this review (and a lot of other ones I’ve seen) tries to make this album into more than what it is. Uzi never said that this would be a focused or cohesive project, and I actually enjoy how chaotic it is cause it’s so interesting to hear all the different styles. I personally loved this album and it’s one of my favorites of the year ngl

    Everyone complains when an artist doesnt change it up, but when uzi tried new forms of music people call the album trash, atp people who listen to hip hop are only filling there spotify with tik tok songs and trying to relate to whats current, not actually listening and trying to develop a new taste of music, eventually when uzi and carti change the direction of trap music all the haters are gonna come back and call this tape a classic.

  • @jamminright4384

    I think this album reflects uzi the most as a person. One minute he’s pouring his heart out then the next he’s growling in your ear. I feel like the pink tape was a project uzi made for uzi and not for the industry. Luv is rage 3 will probably be the album that’s targeted for mainstream audience

    • @LL-ex
      @LL-ex Před 10 měsíci

      Pink tape is definitely a mainstream project bc there is a lot of hits in this album who are put to touch a larger audience than a full trap album. That's why the fans who only love when he does trap music didn't like this album that much when it first came out. He did this album because he likes different music genre and also because he can touch a larger audience like Hard rock fans, metal fans etc

    • @LL-ex
      @LL-ex Před 10 měsíci +2

      But if you were saying that pink tape will target an hip hop audience then I agree with you.
      I also think that pink tape is the project that uzi always wanted to do. Uzi always called himself a rockstar and now he does rock songs and he also put the other styles he listens to right now (Melo rnb songs, trap songs, rage music,...)

      As a metalhead, I think that uzi including rock/metal elements in this album is a good thing. But we have to admit 2 things. 1) the "screams" he does are horrofic, he definitely need some excercise. They are very far from a proper scream. 2) "werewolf" is a song that bmth discard for sounding too much like Deftones, and even if it's good, it's basically a bmth song. The same goes for "the end" with baby metal. The only 2 remaining songs with a notable rock influence are "suicide doors" and "amped". It's not much, I think he could implement a bit more this influences

    I got exactly what I wanted from pink tape, a chance for Uzi to flex his creativity. He’s always pushing the limits of how hip hop/rap sounds. His discography is so unique compared to his contemporaries, he’s just so much fun to listen to at the end of the day in my opinion
