In a 2016 interview with GlobalGrindTV, Lil Uzi Vert explained the title of Luv Is Rage: "It goes two different ways. It's, like, I usually just say the one way, but it go both ways. Like ‘Luv Is Rage’ is, like, L-U-V: it's Lil Uzi Vert, and, like, I'm a rockstar, I am rage, like everything I do, I'm raging. And, it's more, like, you know rage is, like, it's not that good, like, raging is, like, rebellious, like, and, like, with love, like, you know, love is good. Like, but love is also bad too. It's horrible. And it was, like, a lot of songs are a little darker and stuff and, like, you can hear the stuff that I say–stuff, like, yeah–I don't know, I'm always in a bad space, even if I'm, like–I don't know, I'm crazy" The version of the mixtape on streaming services only contains 12 of the 16 songs that are on the mixtape, as "Moist", "Queso", "Wit My Crew x 1987" and "Nuyork Nights at 21," are excluded. The mixtape features Atlanta rapper Young Thug on streaming services. However, the mixtape also originally included a feature from fellow Pennsylvanian rapper Wiz Khalifa, whom Lil Uzi Vert considers to be one of his leading inspirations.
