Playboi Carti is gearing up to bless us with his highly-anticipated album, Whole Lotta Red on Monday. At least, we hope that's what he's dropping. Regardless, the artist dropped a fresh single on Thursday called "@ MEH" and let's just say, fans are pretty split on how they feel about it. Perhaps the most critical person of the song has been none other than Lil Uzi Vert who has collaborated with Carti in the past.
Uzi has been hinting at a feud with Carti and he all but confirmed those rumors when he called his song "Just Meh." He is even going so far as to sabotage Carti's release date by releasing some music of his own. Today, Uzi is sending more shots at Carti on Twitter. After Maaly Raw commented on how great Carti's new song is, Uzi hit him with the sarcastic laughing crying emoji.
Okay, okay, before you genius commenters get at me for writing about a laughing crying emoji, it is fairly significant when you put everything into context. Some fans think that the beef between Carti and Uzi isn't real but at this point, Uzi is doing everything in his power to make us think he really does hate the Die Lit artist. Whether it's a troll or not, there is no denying that something deeper is going on here.
We'll just have to wait and see what happens on Monday.
Lil Uzi Vert Reacts To Playboi Carti’s New Song: "Just Meh"
Lil Uzi Vert is seemingly not a fan of Playboi Carti's new song "@ MEH," sharing his thoughts on Twitter.
Lil Uzi Vert and Playboi Carti have had somewhat of a friendly rivalry happening for the last several months. Their relationship was seemingly picture-perfect before a fan asked if they were still on good terms.
"No," responded Uzi, shocking the world.
Since the comments were made, Uzi has clarified that he was back on the right foot with his longtime collaborator but, somewhere between then and now, things went ugly again.
For weeks, the two have cryptically been throwing shots at each other with the fans unsure of whether or not they were just trolling. With the release of Carti's new banger "@ MEH," many were stalking Lil Uzi Vert's social media pages to see if he would react and, right on cue, he did.
"Just Meh," wrote the Philadelphia rapper on Twitter, continuing the confusing blow-out to their friendship.
While this can definitely be perceived as a diss, it's important to add that Uzi and Carti have such a long history that this may be part of their master-plan to take over the entire music industry this year.
Already, Lil Uzi Vert has achieved his largest numbers ever with Eternal Atake and the subsequent deluxe release. Maybe this is his way of pushing Playboi Carti to deliver a classic with Whole Lotta Red?
Tough love or beef?
Playboi Carti Fans React To New Song "@ MEH"
Is Playboi Carti's new song just "MEH" or is it "VERY HOTTTTT?"
On our website, we have a ranking system that has remained consistent for years. A song/mixtape can be rated from "VERY HOTTTTT" TO "MAKE IT STOP." As of right now, the brand new song from Playboi Carti has a user rating of "MEH" which somehow seems right, considering the song is titled "@ MEH."
Returning from out of nowhere, Atlanta rapper Playboi Carti released his new video for the single "@ MEH." This moment has been a long time coming for the 23-year-old, who has been teasing his upcoming album Whole Lotta Red for the last year.
While it's still very early to tell if the song will stick with us for a matter of hours/days/weeks/months or even years, there is a case to be made for the defense of "@ MEH." However, the people critiquing the record have a point as well.
Fans seem to be drawn right down the middle on the high-energy track. On Twitter, the memes have begun flying, imagining how Carti fans are taking in his baby-voiced masterpiece while, on other boards, people are shitting all over the new release.
