![]() ![]() The move was, and is, so versatile that the best users could do it to slower songs and speedy tracks. It was 2015 when the “Hit Dem Folks” dance became a viral sensation. That is the true power of Lil Uzi Vert’s music, specifically in this record which, alongside “Money Longer,” helped to elevate them to the superstar we know today. Whether you’re a man trying to escape a woman who is too into you, or the woman who has been played, this record makes you feel something. While this record is a bit more downtempo than others found on this list, it is loaded with memorable lines that touch the soul. “Yeah, alright, alright, alright/ You was right (Right), I was wrong/ Yeah, I should’ve never ever took her home/ Yeah, I should’ve just boned/ Yeah, fantasy on my phone.” Evidently, they were sold a dream about what would happen and who can’t say they haven’t been in a similar situation? They got involved with a woman who ended up wanting more than just sex, and, thus, they regretted taking her home and admit that mistake to a friend. Many people find it difficult to admit when they are wrong, but Lil Uzi Vert turned that challenge into a playful anthem with 2016’s “You Was Right.” The opening lines “Hit it from the back, watch a ni**a bless you” were found all over Twitter the year that this song dropped, and foreshadowed the enigmatic artist’s revelation later on. That would not come as a surprise, but whatever the case may be, “Money Longer” is and arguably will always be the perfect score for a night of celebration. It was almost as if they made this record knowing exactly how the best turntables marksman would manipulate it. ![]() Not to mention, the muffled beat building up into a loud, video-game theme-like roar is candy for DJs to play around with. There was a rising tide of new artists, and Uzi separated themself from the pack early on with “Money Longer” and several other records. There isn’t too much to say about this record, but it will forever get plays because of how important it was to their career and that year of music. Carefree energy is evoked in bars like, “It do not matter/ Turned to a savage, pockets got fatter, she call me daddy/ Smokin’ that gas, gone off that Xanny, she on the powder/ Nowadays I am on, my haters got sadder/ Money got longer, speaker got louder, car got faster.” While fans could relate to them in the moments they reflected on their hard times, they equally had a knack for capturing the braggadocious energy of someone who’s leveled up. “Money Longer” was one of Lil Uzi Vert’s seminal records that elevated them to a new stratosphere in 2016. In the interest of re-introducing some of them to fans that may have forgotten, VIBE also has some honorable mentions below. On their 27th birthday (July 31), VIBE counts down the eight best Lil Uzi Vert Party Jawns. ![]() It is a difficult task to determine their best party jawns because they have had so many songs consistently play in that environment, and multiple others that could or should get inserted. Uzi has found their way into DJ’s setlists from the early days of their career up to now as one of the biggest names in Hip-Hop. Their signature shoulder roll dance has captivated audiences at their live shows, and the high-energy production, shapeshifting flows, and catchy nuances have made it so fans end up sweaty once they finish moving to the music and screaming their lyrics. ![]() The 26-year-old eclectic artist has not only told us “I’m a rockstar” in Playboi Carti’s 2017 track “wokeuplikethis*,” but has lived it through and through, all the way up to their 2022 smash hit “ Just Wanna Rock.” Their musical identity adopted DNA from Lil Wayne’s transition into rock music back in 2009, taking it to an entirely new level. In all iterations of their career, Lil Uzi Vert has prioritized having a good time. ![]()
