Lil Uzi Vert has received much attention for his fashion choices. Famed radio host Sway asked Uzi about his “feminine” attire on the magenta carpet at the Billboard Music Awards.
“You know what it is? They never felt these fabrics before,” said Uzi who was wearing Valentino shirt also priced at $2,400.
Uzi recently took to Twitter to reveal the attention he’s gotten made him love the sweater more than ever.
“Y’all made me love it more,” he wrote. “I love that shirt I got it overseas before it even came out… Well before you saw it…. And I will always wear it FAIT CONNECTION.”
Uzi revealed to a fan days ago that his shirt cost $2,400.
50 Cent, on the other hand, is not quite sold yet. Fif recently took to IG to weigh in on Lil Uzi Vert’s $2,400 sweater that caught the attention of social media.
50 posted a side-by-side photo of Machine Gun Kelly and Lil Uzi Vert who were both photoed wearing the same sweater.
50 wrote, “this the new s***t, ok I don’t think I’m a do this one. LOL.
He later added in his comment section, “I like Uzi music, I’m trying to understand all this s**t. This s**t is expensive to $ 2,400, nah they can keep this one.”
Waka Flocka recently defended Uzi’s fashion choices. Waka says Uzi is entitled to wear what he wants because he’s simply not Hip Hop. Waka took to IG to repost a meme that features Uzi and Nas titled, “You Hip Hop, My Hip Hop.” A photo of Uzi dressed in feminine clothing was placed under “Your Hip Hop,” and a photo of Nas was placed beneath “My Hip Hop.”
Waka wrote, “This post ain’t bool @liluzivert is Rock not Hip Hop! This generation has #Logic #Jcole #Meek #KDot etc. let my era be great!!! Side note rock artist always been edge #ImJustTakingUp4HipHop & #TheseStreets #TheseYoungNiggasUp Big ole Facts #BigHomie #BigDawgBigDawg.”
Lil Uzi Vert continues to push gender boundaries of fashion. Uzi set social media on fire Saturday after a questionable image surfaced of him wearing women’s attire.
Famous Dex is another rapper who takes pride in his fashion choices. Dexter is among the thousands of people in the Hip Hop community who found Uzi’s wardrobe hilarious. Chicago comedian Donterio’s baked the XO Tour Life artist in a new IG video.
Dex reacted to Uzi’s garb in Donterio’s comment section.
