Uno cemented himself as a pillar of the rap scene in 2015, taking the underground by storm with the release of his No More Thotties mixtape and songs like "Parkin' Lot Pimpin'," "Giuseppe Swag," and "WHAT." Uno would respond to the craving for new music held by his fans for two years by releasing his debut studio mixtape Live.Shyne.Die in late 2017.
A desire for musical experimentation led to his mid-2018 EP Limbus. The series' second installment would release in December of that same year. This trend of experimentation would continue itself with the release of Uno's Deadication remix project in mid-2019.
Uno delivered Deadication II: Lost Files in early 2020, a mixtape containing vaulted songs dating back to 2017. In mid-2020, Uno released his highly-anticipated debut studio album, 8, which included popular tracks "Das Him," "Night Mode," and "Can't Go."
At the beginning of 2021, Uno would release his sophomore studio album, Unoverse, a 10-track LP that would mark his first independent release since his 2017 EP Sorry for the Wait. The project featured standout cuts "Taco Bell" and "Opp Pack." ~ Alexander L. & Hamed T.

Ha ha, Shyne time
What? (Dream, this shit go dummy)
Burnt out (Dig?) , burnt out (What?)
Burnt out
(What?) , burnt out (Shit burnt out)
They thought they was turnt
Had a couple bridges, they all burned down
Okay, burn it down, fuck that shit
We gon' burn it up
Watch TV in the Bentley truck
You lil' niggas not turnt like us
Pulled up on the opps and they got quiet
I told 'em to turn it up
No strap like flip-flop
Don't you try 'cause you can learn from us
No, I ain't givin' no sauce
Out, but I'm the boss
So maybe you can work for us
She was trickin' these niggas
So I tricked her
Maybe she'll hurt for once
Thought it was a drought, I ain't run out
I'm having surplus
I got a couple crash dummies that'll
Kill you for no purpose
Burnt out (Dig?) , burnt out (What?)
Burnt out
(What?) , burnt out (Shit burnt out)
They thought they was turnt
But they burnt out (That's cap)
Had a couple bridges, they all burned down
Burnt out

Burnt out (What?) , burnt out (Burnt out)
They thought they was turnt
But they burnt out (Burnt, burnt)
Had a couple bridges, they all burned down
(Burnt, burnt)
Burnt out (Dig) , burnt out (What?)
Burnt out (What?) , burnt out (Burnt out)
I thought you was lit, but you burnt out

I know that I'm turnt, but I'm burnt out
Huh, I must be a nerd, I'm a geek monster

Eating Benihana's (Freak)

Take some time off (Yeah)
Ooh, molly got you feelin'
Like you flyin' off
I hate a ho that be asking for something
Yeah, you can't act, what you bragging on
Huh? Guess you can brag if you bad enough
If you get the bag, then take me to lunch

Got Ricky on, I ain't get shot in the back
You'd rather get high than get to the racks
I don't understand like I'm
Standing on that
You don't get nobody depending on that
Burnt out (Dig?) , burnt out (What?)
Burnt out

They thought they was turnt
But they burnt out (That's cap)
Had a couple bridges, they all burned down
Burnt out (Dig) , burnt out (What?)
Burnt out (What?) , burnt out (Burnt out)
They thought they was turnt
But they burnt out (Burnt, burnt)
Had a couple bridges, they all burnt down

I know that I'm turnt, but I'm burnt out

I'm good with it

Enjoying a meal at the restaurant chain Benihana
We gonna zoom off to Cancun

Hmm? I suppose you can boast if you're tough enough
If you get the bag, then take me to lunch
If you obtain a large sum of money, then treat me to a meal
Got Ricky on, I ain't get shot in the back
I have protective measures in place, I didn't suffer a betrayal
You'd rather get high than get to the racks
You prefer getting intoxicated rather than working hard to make money
I don't understand like I'm standing on that
I don't comprehend, it's as if I'm standing on an incomprehensible situation
You don't get nobody depending on that
You won't have anyone relying on you because of that
I'm good with it
I am satisfied or content with it
