Rich The Kid and Lil Uzi Vert feud continues.

Rich The Kid and Lil Uzi Vert have been beefing since the top of the year and it doesn't look like it'll end any time soon. While the rapper's major label debut is dropping later this month, he's also been doing a heavy press run and of course, the topic of Lil Uzi Vert is bound to pop up. However, it sounds like if you ask Rich The Kid about the Philly rapper these days, he won't know who you're talking about

In a recent interview, Rich The Kid was asked about Lil Uzi Vert and apparently, he doesn't know who that is. The rapper joined Raq Rants host Raquel to speak about his new album and more. RTK was later asked about Lil Uzi Vert and their current feud but he simply pretended like he has no idea who Uzi is.

"I never heard of him." He said, "I never heard of Lil Uzi Vert. Who is that? That's a rapper or something?"

While Raquel seemed to be a little confused, Rich The Kid grinned from ear to ear and continued trolling.

"'Cause right now, I got two songs on the Billboard charts, you know what I'm sayin'? I never heard of Lil Uzi on the Billboard charts right now."

As Raquel persistently asked RTK about his relationship with Lil Uzi Vert for the third time, the rapper simply used the moment to plug his forthcoming project The World Is Yours

Peep the full interview below.
