Rich The Kid Continues His Beef With Lil Uzi Vert On 'Dead Friends'
Today (March 26),
Rich The Kid released "Dead Companions the long-awaited track that several believe disses
Lil Uzi Vert. In January, tempers flared between the two rappers on Twitter.
Uzi took to the social media platform to urge artists not to sign to rappers or DJs,
Rich The Kid responded that the
Luv Is Rage 2 rapper should've signed to his label, and
Uzi replied with the comical, "Boy I’m not signing for 20racks."
Since then,
Lil Uzi tagged Wealthy as a crab in a Instagram story and claimed the Atlanta rapper wants to look like him. Prosperous later teased a snippet of "Dead Companions on Instagram reside in February.
Here is a breakdown of each rumored subliminal on Rich's new track.
Put The "Lil" In Lil Uzi Vert
Lyric: "Lil' n----s furious, lil' n----s be little"
Prosperous The Kid's first declaration seems like a jab about Uzi's height or a not so subtle dig at the starting of his rap name. Uzi once said he was
5"4' on Twitter, so it doesn't seem like he's that bothered about sharing his dimensions with the world.

R.I.P. Friendship
Lyric: "All them dead companions, you a middle man / You a little bit man / Your cash getting shorter"
Rich's hook takes inspiration from two Uzi hits. "All them dead companions is an eas flip on Lil Uzi's lyrics from "
XO Tour Llif3," while the cash getting shorter" bar pokes fun at his early hit cash Longer."

Crying Is OK
Lyric: "Shove my pride to the side (side), I may never lie / I don't care in the event you cry, let them pussy n----s die"
At least Lil Uzi Vert and Wealthy The Kid can agree on one thing: They don't care about people crying.

Drama Kings
Lyric: "Pull up with the drama (drama) / Better be movin' genuine (what)"
Recently, Lil Uzi Vert experienced trouble with his
label boss, DJ Drama, on Twitter. So this line gets several additional points for referencing a fresh wound.

Lil Star Vert
Lyric: "Come to Wealthy Forever, be a star, yeah"
The above line is confusing for the simple reason that Lil Uzi Vert, from a numbers perspective, is now a bigger artist than Prosperous The Kid. According to the RIAA, "XO Tour Llif3" is
5 times platinum, "The Way Life Goes " is
platinum, cash Longer" is
2 times platinum, and
Luv Is Rage 2 debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
For comparison, Prosperous The Kid's "New Fridge featuring Kendrick Lamar is
platinum.
