Nav in the passenger seat crushing up a Xan. From Billboard : Uzi’s meaty 14-track collection comes after he shelled out 18 songs on EA last week, with The Internet’s Syd billed as the lone feature. Uzi driving at night with psychedelic/punk night skies and him smoking a blunt. Although Uzi's post-breakup pain rears its head throughout the entirety of the album, many of the tracks are too fun to get too bogged down in emotions. The XO Tour Llif3 rapper capitalized on the moment and followed up on Friday with a deluxe version of the album. For pure thrills, "Early 20 Rager" booms, a stomping stand out that injects an undeniable energy to Luv Is Rage 2. The hypnotic "For Real" bounces along a blipping beat provided by DJ Plugg and Bobby Kritical, it's one of the best produced moments on the album. The catchiness of the track is contrasted by its dour subject matter, giving Luv Is Rage 2 an appreciable depth. Despite featuring high-profile guests like Pharrell Williams ("Neon Guts") and the Weeknd ("UnFazed"), Uzi fares better on his own, his oddball personality and endearing uniqueness adding flavor to highlights like "Two ®" and "Sauce It Up." A sample of Oh Wonder's "Landslide" elevates single "The Way Life Goes," a melodic pop moment that finds Uzi in a tender and yearning state. While production - courtesy of Don Cannon, TM88, Metro Boomin, WondaGurl, and more - improved upon that of his mixtapes, the colorful lyrical content remained as dark, hedonistic, and candid as ever, with Uzi layering rhymes about sex and drugs atop vulnerable moments relating to a tough breakup. A sequel to his 2015 mixtape, Luv Is Rage 2 celebrated Uzis rapid ascent in the hip-hop world, marking his mainstream breakthrough with the single 'XO Tour Llife3' and peaking at the top spot of the Billboard 200.
