Japanese Musical Influences
Much of Uzi's musical influences correspond with his national identity as a corollary of the fact that "Japanese have long perceived themselves, and been perceived by others as one homogeneous group, racially, ethnically, and culturally identical". As such, a number of his influences are Japanese artists. Some songs and their artists which Uzi lists as musical influences include: KNOCK OUT feat. ZEEBRA 2002 produced by INOVADER 新日本プロレスエンディングテーマ, ひとり酒 DRINKING BY MYSELF 2003 produced by SUB ZERO, 開放軍 III feat. 神, KENTA 5 RUS, MASARU, 565, AKTION, DOB-ROC 2006 produced by LUCHA a.k.a. Kut.
