Bobby Kritical Talks Chemistry, Leaks & More With Revolt

Tiffany Hamilton — Sat, 08 Aug 2020 06:52:04 +0000

Superstar producer Bobby Kritical can only be described as the wave of the future.

The certified platinum producer has most notably laid down the beat for Lil Uzi Vert, Future, and was the Executive Producer for K Camp’s third studio album Wayy 2 Kritical. The 808 blending producer has linked up with Gucci Mane, 2 Chainz, and Rick Ross, among others, and recently sat down with Revolt to discuss how he develops in-studio chemistry with some of Hip-Hop’s biggest names including his longtime friend and collaborator K Camp.

“I’ve known [K Camp] for about 10 years. We have chemistry because we’ve bonded outside of the music. We’re like family,” Bobby Kritcal said. “I met him through my buddy Sy Ari Da Kid who had a studio off of Windy Hill Rd. All of the artists would come there to record because it was one of the biggest studios at Cobb County. Camp came in one day, Sy made the introduction, and we’ve been working since then. We’re like brothers, so when we’re in the studio, I’m 1000 times more comfortable trying new s**t and not feeling like I have to conform. I can be myself and he’ll accept that.

In regards to leaks, the super-producer states that while the experience isn’t the best, there isn’t too much that an artist can do. marketing-wise, once the unreleased record hits the web.

“It’s a drag and not much you can do about it,” Kritical continued. “Once it’s leaked, you can officially release it, but that hinders the artist because they may not have planned to release it then. A lot of times artists will just scrap the record. As a producer, you feel like you missed out on a potential placement or a potential check.”

While Bobby Kritical’s work with notable artists is well known, the Atlanta-bred producer revealed that there are quite a few names that he’s worked with he’s hoping to be released soon, including a project with Houston-bred rapper Travis Scott.

“I was told Travis [Scott] grabbed a few records from my dawg FKi 1st,” Kritical said. “I don’t have a name for it, but the way he’s speaking, it might actually come out. I’m also dropping my singles “Perculator” by T Hood and “back2back” by Reese Laflare and Felipe soon.”

With everything going on right now, the world could use little pick-me-up and Lil Uzi’s “Wassup” lyric video is just that. Courtesy of Trix Studios and director Yasha Gruben, this visual comes on the heels of the official single featuring Future. This release is beyond its time, possessing high technology and video at the highest level of innovation.

Using deep fake algorithms, the video features a “Boom” (a parody of Zoom) call between a number of hip-hop stars — and political figures like Kim Jong Un, President Obama, and Trump. What makes this visual super memorable is that you will see the political figures mouthing the word “wassup” over the infectious chorus. Uzi’s verse simulates a Google image search, superimposing his face over famous portraits such as Steve Jobs, the Mona Lisa, Michael Jackson, and Jean-Michel Basquiat. The Philly rapper has created a body of work that simply cannot be duplicated.

Meanwhile, Future’s verse zooms out a bit to observe the computer’s user, a busty woman lounging around half-dressed. Then the video closes as the laptop crashes thanks to a bunch of error messages. Lil Uzi Vert has set the bar high for all entertainers in the music business trying to be different. One thing that is for certain is that Vert has scored himself another hit record!

Lil Uzi Vert Drops Off New Visual for “Sanguine Paradise”

Jon Powell — Mon, 08 Jul 2019 21:45:30 +0000

When will Lil Uzi Vert (or his label) finally drop Eternal Atake? To this day, nobody knows, but it thankfully hasn’t stopped the Philly emcee from delivering some new music in the meantime. This month, Uzi delivers a new visual for the loose cut “Sanguine Paradise,” which essentially channels Wesley Snipes‘ Blade films. The track itself — produced by Oogie Mane and Brandon Finessin — takes from Mykko Montana and K Camp‘s “Do It” (both of whom appear in the clip).

Anyways, enjoy the vampire-themed video below, and let us all pretend we’ll actually be hearing Eternal Atake in its entirety soon.

Young Nudy does his usual due diligence as he puts on for Atlanta’s Zone 6 by linking in the lab with super producer, Pi’erre Bourne – best known for his tag, “Yo Pi’erre!”

Including features from 21 Savage, DaBaby, Megan Thee Stallion and Lil Uzi Vert, the tape makes for the perfect trap-inspired soundtrack for summer 2019.

In light of the new release, Nudy also drops the official visual to, “Shotta,” featuring sexy femcee, Megan Thee Stallion.

Lil Uzi Vert is Back with New Visual for “Free Uzi”

Jon Powell — Sat, 30 Mar 2019 20:02:14 +0000

Lil Uzi Vert is officially out of retirement. Following big news of a defection to Roc Nation, the Philly star returns with a new video, aptly-titled “Free Uzi,” which sees him rapping while out and about on the streets. The song — produced by DJ L Beats — initially made it’s way to streaming platforms (presumably through Distrokid) before being taken down by Atlantic Records and DJ Drama and Don Cannon‘s Generation Now…which means that he’s not completely free from that deal yet.

Enjoy the Qasquiat-directed clip.
