Lil Uzi Vert Seemingly Refers to Nitrous Oxide Use on "We Good"

2 weeks ago 6

Lil Uzi Vert appears to address their alleged use of nitrous oxide, also known as “galaxy gas,” on the rapper's new song “We Good.”

The track is taken from the 29-year-old’s latest studio album, Eternal Atake 2, which arrived on Friday. On the album’s opener, Uzi references being “on that NOS,” which is shorthand for the controversial substance.

Further into the song, Uzi also referenced individuals who believed they were “lost” and “a dead guy.”

As explained by Complex’s Trace William Cowen, Galaxy Gas is a Georgia-based brand specializing in whipped cream dispensers and chargers, strictly for culinary use. However, the brand has been recently associated with illegal, recreational misuse of nitrous oxide, also known as “whippets” or “whip-its.”

Health risks related to misuse of the substance include nerve damage, vitamin B12 interference, fainting, and, in severe cases, paralysis.

In August, a video allegedly showing Uzi inhaling an orange balloon, believed to be filled with nitrous oxide, circulated online and sparked concerns among fans.

While speaking to Complex’s Jordan Rose in a recent interview, Uzi explained what they meant about “honesty” being one of his goals.

“My main goal is a forever goal, like, I will never reach that,” they said at the 31:15 mark in the video linked below. “I always tell myself that so I can get better. It’s impossible to be completely honest, unless you practice like a religion somewhere else or something.

“I just tell myself that every day so I won't fuck up and I won't do nothing weird. A lot of people need to tell themselves that every day, [they] need to practice honesty cuz they don't be honest with themselves and if you're not honest with yourself then your team can't be honest with you. And if your team can't be honest with you, it's going to get bad.”
