Lil Uzi Vert's Song is Pulled From Streaming Services Over Licensing Issues

Lil Uzi Vert's return to music is now has come to a halt as his new single is yanked from digital music services because he freestyled over someone else's beat.

Lil Uzi Vert's new song, "Free Uzi," is no longer available on Tidal and Apple Music -- for streaming or purchase -- because of licensing issues and copyright concerns. The single features a beat that was previously used in a G Herbo song.

Lil Uzi's single isn't an original production, and he didn't clear the sample.

Uzi decided to drop the song after Drama and Cannon said they'd support him releasing music and the only reason ist not out is because of the copyright issue. 

"Free Uzi" is still up on YouTube and SoundCloud.

His label, Atlantic Records, had no comment on the song being pulled.
