Lil Uzi Vert's been quite vocal about his frustrations with his label, Generation Now. The rapper kicked off the "Free Uzi" campaign after alleging that DJ Drama and Don Cannon have been preventing him from releasing Eternal Atake. Thankfully, Jay-Z came through with some assistance and signed Uzi to a management deal with Roc Nation. After releasing his latest single "Free Uzi" earlier in the day, he returns with the official music video.
Lil Uzi Vert returns with the incredibly trippy visuals to his single, "Free Uzi." The rapper's latest visual is filled with psychedelic effects while the rapper shows off his dance moves in a corner store and in an empty hallway. The "Free Uzi" visual wouldn't have been complete without Nav who has been one of the biggest supporters of the #FreeUzi campaign.
"Free Uzi" serves as the rapper's first single since 2018's "New Patek." The visual serves as the first video he's released since releasing "The Way Life Goes (Remix)" with Nicki Minaj.
