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.

All I ever wanted was some money
My desire was to acquire wealth
'Cause I came from the bottom
Because I originated from a disadvantaged position
Just like a dungeon, yeah
Similar to a dark and confined place
And I swear I'm gonna bounce
I am determined to rise rapidly
Up like a bungee, yeah
Like a bungee cord, I will catapult
Ooh, these niggas copy, swag
These individuals imitate my style
They fucking monkeys, yeah
They mimic like foolish animals
And I swear I am the motherfucking greatest
I sincerely believe I am exceptionally talented
When I walk in the room, a standing ovation
Upon my entrance, people applaud enthusiastically
No, I don't want no dumb bitch
I am not interested in foolish females
Get your education (That bitch smart)
Pursue knowledge and intelligence (That woman is clever)
And we done came way too far
We have come a significant distance
Ain't no white flag waving
We will not surrender or back down
All these diamonds on me looking sunny (Yeah)
My diamond jewelry appears radiant
I told that girl I want her
I expressed my desire for that girl
Best friend but don't say shit (What?)
My request was for her to remain silent
I got lil' baby on the way, gotta be patient
I have a child on the way and must exercise patience
I told her go and get
I instructed her to retrieve
My big brother a facelift (Yeah)
I advised her to fund cosmetic surgery for my older sibling
I didn't pull up in a 'Rari
I didn't arrive in a Ferrari
This a spaceship
It is a vehicle that appears extraterrestrial
Okay, I put her in Hermes, she's a bad bitch
I purchased luxury Hermes products for her, she is attractive
i really think I want that
I genuinely believe I desire her
Girl but she too average
However, she is mediocre
I told that girl to pour as
I instructed her to pour as much beverage
Much as she could manage (Yeah)
As much as her capacity allows
I can't lie, I got some bad habit's
To be honest, I possess negative traits
I don't think that you would understand it
I doubt you would comprehend it

Alright, I enjoy lowering
Top and make it vanish (Yeah)
The roof of my vehicle disappear abruptly
No trading places, baby

Almost as if I were in the Navy, darling

I act as your superhero in disguise
Like a Power Ranger
Similar to the characters in Power Rangers
I just watched how she blossomed
I observed her growth
Seen it from every angle, ooh
Examined it from every perspective
Cruising with the top down, riding down Rodeo
Driving with the convertible roof open, traveling down Rodeo Drive
And we go, go up, up just like elevators
We ascend, rise rapidly like elevators
(Go up) , ooh we were cool like glaciers
(Go up) Oh, we were calm and collected like glaciers
Booling in Barbados (Booling)
Having a great time in Barbados (Having fun)
Tell me why they hate us (Yeah)
Inform me of the reason for their animosity (Yeah)
