Lil Uzi Vert Reportedly Detained For Paintball Fight

Who else isn’t surprised in the slightest that, of all things to get detained for, Lil Uzi Vert gets placed in handcuffs for having a paintball war in the streets?

The 26-year-old rapper from Philadelphia is one of the most eccentric characters in the rap game and, last night, he reportedly added to the list crazy things he’s done to earn that “eccentric” title.

According to DJ Akademiks, Lil Uzi Vert was briefly detained for having an all-out paintball war in the streets. A video has been released, showing what appears to be the “XO Tour Llif3” rapper being placed in handcuffs by the police. The man in the video has not been confirmed to be Uzi. However, some fans of the rapper have claimed that, prior to his reported detainment, the rapper was on Instagram Live having a paintball fight, sticking his paintball gun out the window of a moving vehicle. Thus, the connection was made pretty clear.

The rapper does not appear to have been arrested or charged but we will keep you posted on that front.

For the last several months, Lil Uzi Vert has been teasing a new collaborative project with Future. Hopefully, this doesn’t impede their progress. If anything, it might make for some peak lyrical content in a new song.

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”

KYLE

Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.

“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.

But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
