 (AllHipHop News) Lil Uzi Vert has been the subject of significant online criticism for some of his clothing choices.

In particular, a photo of Uzi wearing a pink and black top with a purse recently sparked conversation about current Hip Hop artists’ style.

Last week, the Philadelphia native responded to a fan who was supportive of his outfit by declaring, “I paid $2,400 for that shirt.”

Uzi was questioned about his controversial personal style while on the “magenta carpet” at the 2017 Billboard Music Awards.

Sway Calloway asked, “What is your response to that? People think it’s feminine.”

“You know what it is? They’ve never felt these fabrics before,” replied Uzi about the Valentino shirt he wore to the awards show.

While the “XO Tour Llif3” performer takes some heat for his wardrobe and his music, Lil Uzi also has backers like R&B singer Tank.
