One of the sure highlights from DJ Nick's recent mixtape The Big Payback Vol. 2 was "187," which featured co-star A$AP Ant linking up with a young rapper named Lil Uzi Vert.
With a beat that features bloodcurdling screams reminiscent of the ones araabMUZIK often throws into his tracks, "187" is an ominous tale of violence in Philly. Though his name sounds like some secret move from the Tony Hawk: Pro Skater video games, Lil Uzi Vert more than holds his own alongside Ant, using his double-timed and triplet-aided flow to great effect.
Stay tuned for more from this duo; they're some of the most promising in Philly at the moment.
