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.

In "Pew Pew Pew," UnoTheActivist delivers a boastful and confident message about his superiority and dominance in the rap game. The repeated phrase "pew-pew-pew" mimics the sound of a gun firing, which serves as a metaphor for his lyrical prowess and ability to take down his competition effortlessly. He asserts that most other rappers are insignificant, referring to them as "peons" and belittling them as being small and weak. UnoTheActivist takes pride in his unique style and approach to music, suggesting that others are unable to replicate or comprehend his talent.
The lyrics also touch on UnoTheActivist's lavish lifestyle, surrounded by beautiful women and luxury cars. He portrays himself as someone with a strong presence and charisma, likening his entrance into a room with a broom to metaphorically sweeping away any competition. The mention of a "Coke bottle" references a woman with an attractive figure, further emphasizing his indulgence in desirable companionship.
The second verse delves deeper into UnoTheActivist's street credibility and his readiness to defend himself. He references his ability to handle firearms, keeping them close for protection like a tooth fairy keeping money under a pillow. The mention of feeling like Harry in the Harry Potter series highlights his belief in possessing magical powers or abilities when it comes to his style and presence. The final lines of the song emphasize his warning to those who dare to challenge him, suggesting that any attempt to cross him will ultimately result in their demise.
