Originally having grown up in North Philadelphia€€€s Francisville 
 neighborhood, Lil Uzi Vert is the only one in his immediate musical circle 
 that is not from Atlanta €€€ but he couldn€€€t sound more at home over 
 Wheezy€€€s operatic piano riffs and 
 speaker-stretching 808 rumble. The appeal of his style is not unlike a 
 teenaged Lil Wayne, reminiscent of his vocal tone and penchant for melody. 
  
 In the past year, Lil Uzi Vert has experienced a meteoric rise. April 
 2016€€€s 
 "Lil Uzi Vert vs. The World" featured his biggest hit to date, and set the 
 pace for July€€€s "The Perfect Luv Tape", a tightly edited project that 
 featured €€€Do What I Want,€€ 
 € a song that was prominently featured in a Jordan brand sneaker commercial 
 in 
 October. During this time, he also released a collaborative EP with Gucci 
 Mane, which included a bevy of individual singles, and notched some 33 
 features in the press, all 
 while touring consistently. SoundCloud crowned him their most followed 
 artist 
 of 2016, and during the second week of 2017, he achieved his first No. 1 on 
 the Billboard Hot 100, thanks to a guest verse on Migos€€€s €€€Bad and 
 Boujee.€€€ 
  
 And just last week Iggy Azalea released the hit single €€€Can€€€t Lose€€€ 
 featuring Lil Uzi Vert himself. 
  
 Missing Link Music is ecstatic about adding this new up-and-coming talent to 
 its esteemed roster.
