Shots fired. Rich the Kid takes aim at Lil Uzi Vert with his highly-anticipated diss track “Dead Friends.”
Over DJ Mustard’s head-knocking instrumental, Rich raps about MCs who “change for fame” in this “sad game.” He also references Uzi’s “XO Tour Llif3” and “Money Longer” in the process.
“All them dead friends,” he raps. “You a middleman / You a lil’ man / Your money gettin’ shorter.”
The feud appears to stem from a January Twitter exchange. After Uzi complained about his label Generation Now, Rich advised: “That’s why you SHOULDA signed Rich forever.” Uzi replied: “Boy I’m not signing for 20racks.” Rich appears to reference that on this song, too. “Come to Rich Forever,” he raps. “Be a star.”
