Lil Uzi Vert says they're done with nitrous as backlash over their alleged use of the drug has persisted on social media in recent weeks. As caught by DJ Akademiks, Uzi shared a selfie on social media with the caption: "Nomore bad stuff," with a salute emoji as well as a balloon emoji. In more posts, they wrote: "Trust the process" and "Who fried?"
When Akademiks reshared the series of posts on Instagram, fans were highly critical of Uzi's behavior. "Homeboy is 30 years old posting like a xanned out grade 11 white boy," one user responded. Another wrote: "Rappers are so weird these days. Bring back XXXL white tees and ecko unltd and phat pharm."

They aren't the only rapper who has been facing backlash for an alleged use of nitrous. Kanye West has also been accused of being hooked on the drug after Milo Yiannopoulos blamed Ye’s dentist, Thomas Connelly, for allegedly getting him addicted. He claimed the move was to “diminish Ye’s mental faculties so that Connelly and his business associates could extract millions of dollars from him," as caught by Page Six. Connelly has denied the allegations. Check out Lil Uzi Vert's recent posts on Instagram below.
