Lil Uzi shared a message explaining they’re not a fan of birthdays after a video circulated showing the rapper looking miserable while celebrating his birthday.
“Everytime I have a bday dinner I reflect on my past and it makes me sad,” Lil Uzi revealed. While their loved ones whooped and cheered, the “Demon High” rapper looked downcast in clips of the celebration.
When someone suggested the Philadelphia native blow out the candles on the cake, Uzi could only respond with, “how?” Then when another guest told Lil Uzi to make a wish, they replied, “I don’t wish.”
