If you consider “Soundcloud Rap” an actual era of music, it’s impossible to not include Lil Uzi Vert and Playboi Carti as 2 of the godfathers of the Soundcloud era. Between 2015-2016 the two even went as far as teasing a joint project on Snapchat a few years back but we’ve yet to see any evidence of this ever being a real thing. Nonetheless, with Lil Uzi officially retired and Carti ascending, an unreleased video has surfaced for their single “Left Right” that was shot back in 2016 but never seen the light of day until now.
Shot and directed by Mezzy, the film director went on to say “Shot way back early 2016 right before their first tour and never dropped. Figured it was time,” This video bookmarks exactly where Lil Uzi and Carti were on their musical journeys really began to take off as the whip in a BMW i8 while blowing on gas enjoying themselves.
Let’s hope the surfacing of this video forces Uzi out of retirement and we get the highly anticipated joint offering but while we wait, enjoy the video below.
