Leaks will always be a controversial issue in music, and unfortunately for Lil Uzi Vert, they're all too familiar with it. The Philadelphia rapper, songwriter, and singer has never been a fan of the idea either. In a recent interview with Pitchfork, they were extremely transparent on the matter. "Leaks are not ready to be presented. So when y'all get leaks. Fans or the leak police or the leak scammers or people in the rooms on Discord. When y'all sit there and get 82 of my leaked songs. That haven't put together the right way. Y'all sit there and say, 'Lil Uzi's trash,'" they said.
"Y'all are basically watching me get dressed in my closet. And I ain't got my clothes on yet. Y'all basically see me naked. And y'all is trash -- all of y'all. You're not giving me a second to get dressed. Before I can dress the song up, y'all judging." Their statements had some fans in agreement, but a fair number also didn't see eye to eye. "Imma keep it a bean, Uzi. Maybe if you would actually release music, people would have no desire for leaks. Maybe if you wouldn't tease this "unfinished" music, we would never know it exists. But YOU build the demand, and YOU don't release the product and edge your fans."
