3 minutes and 46 seconds into the "Bad and Boujee" music video, there exist 4 golden seconds that stand as a pillar of humanity. Audiophiles and casual listeners that had been fidgeting in their seats now sit erect with eyes closed and a hand pressed softly on their right headphone. 4 seconds. Someone in the world listens raptly to these words for the first time and whether they are a child in Somalia or a businessman in Switzerland, they can't help but feel that all artistic endeavours in history have been for naught as nothing has had the penetrating impact that these 4 seconds have. 4 seconds. At every church there's always at least one boy who scrambles furiously up the steps, ready to beg the pastor that the masterful artist Lil Uzi Vert be canonized as a saint with his every word added to the new Uziment section of the Bible. 4 seconds.
