On New Year’s Eve (December 31), Uncle Murda returned with his annual “Rap Up,” which he claims will be his last.

Uncle Murda comes in swinging and begins to run through some of the year’s greatest stories over a sample of Tony Toni Toné’s “Anniversary” single. 

The year 2021 has come to a close, and as is custom, Uncle Murda dropped His version of the “Rap Up.” 

Clarkson’s “Rap Up 2021” by Uncle Murda clocks in at 14:01 seconds. This year, the rapper is using technology in an interesting way. 

Murda’s version was released as an NFT, and the rapper said it contained Rolex watches, a PS5, premier tickets to “BMF” and “Power,” as well as millions of Shiba Inu, the latest dog meme cryptocurrency. 

The Brooklyn native did not miss much in the year 2021, which was full of ups and downs. 

The rapper twisted the violins and Tony Toni Toné’s classic “Anniversary” for his vision to wrap up 2021. 

Murders’ year-end recaps are known for their provocative openings.   

This year, he goes after Lil Nas X in the first lines, surprisingly predicting that the young rapper, like Eazy-E, will die of AIDS. 

“Lil Nas X gon’ catch AIDS and die like Eazy-E/Hope the LGBTQ don’t cancel me,” Murda raps. 

Murda’s use of those bars to introduce the tune was extremely shocking for some fans.

In other parts of the song, Uncle Murda mocks Will Smith for his drama-filled year with his wife Jada Pinkett Smith, and he praises Alpo Martinez’s murderer. 

Quavo and Saweetie’s relationship has gone from “goals” to “poison,” as he remarks. 

Uncle Murda mentions Kanye West’s Drink Champs interview, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Three 6 Mafia Verzuz, and “coke head” rappers. 

The rapper also calls Trick Daddy a lunatic for stating Beyoncé can’t sing, has some harsh words for Freddie Gibbs and thinks the vaccination is a government fraud. 

Dr. Dre’s ex-wife was nicknamed a greedy b**** by Uncle Murda, who blamed her for the great producer’s brain aneurysm. 

In addition, the New York rapper lends his support to Dave Chappelle and Bill Cosby on “Rap Up 2021.” 

Other remarkable topics include Joe Budden’s podcast’s downfall, Dr. Dre’s high-profile divorce from Nicole Young, the Astroworld tragedy, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian’s split, Ye’s concert with Drake, Karen Civil allegedly “robbing” Joyner Lucas, and the deaths of DMX,  Drakeo The Ruler, and Virgil Abloh, among others. 

Uncle Murda, on the other hand, is “he’s “cool with not being cool with n***s”,” as he repeats repeatedly throughout the song, and went after everybody he thought deserved to be included. 

Murda closed the “2021 Rap Up” with some sad news: this will be the final of the Rap Up.
