We are the trend-setters.
We are the originators of searching of the steeze.
You can say it come from another country, whatever,
but if you're talking specifically in Australia,
we will rocking that steeze.

I've got to be careful how much I praise Asics.
They want to start paying me soon.
They want to start paying me soon, and I am telling you.
I'm single-handedly responsible for convincing half of Sydney
to stop wearing Nikes and start wearing Asics, all right?
I've been doing that for two years, and you just want to paying me soon.
I'm going to give you another praise.
Kinseis are the best Asics, all right?
I love Kinseis as I love the shape of them,
I love the comfort of them.
All Asics have good quality.
All Asics are comfortable.
I just think that a gunner's looking Asics.
Nothing more specific, them rather than the Kayano,
rather than a Quantum, they're all mad shoes.
I'll get to the reason why I love Asics.
I think that's more of a relevant topic over any other shoe.
First and foremost,
they're a better quality shoe than any of the other sneakers out there.
That's undoubtable.
I know people love Nikes, and only have Nikes,
and won't wear Asics, because they say, "I don't like the style of them,
they look like this, they look like that."
Even them people,
even those people still say that Asics are both better quality
and more comfortable to wear.
That's the full Nike heads.
They say, "Yes, all right.
I know they're more comfortable and I know they're better quality,
but I don't like them."
That's just a proof in itself how much better they are as shoes.
The reason why I started wearing Asics
is more because when I was, say, a kid, 2002, 2003
and the kid that looked up and idolise the older boys in my area,
we're getting into some criminal talk now, it was a money-making thing.
It was the status thing.
It would be that sort of like the onkies, the gronks,
they would be kicking back, the [censored]
that would drink in street corners the [censored]
that would steal sticks, this and that.
They would wear Nikes.
The [censored] with no money, they would wear Nikes.
All the boys when I was growing up, the older boys,
anyone that was robbing banks, making proper money,
mad searchers any of that.
The way they show that they had money was they have the expensive Asics on.
You'd say the money makers they'd be rocking Kinsei,
they'd be rocking the newest Kayanos.
I was like and all of the boys was telling me,
"Why are you wearing Nikes bruh?
You make money, wear Asics bruh."
The answer is Asics Kinsei by far.
They stop making them.

GOAT rapper ever has to be Krayzie Bone bruh.
It's semi in way a lot of people think it's contradictory
that I say that because I put myself out for lyricism
to be such a high standard and the most important aspect for rapping.
He obviously doesn't shine in that anywhere near
compared to all my other favorite rappers,
but I just think that Krayzie Bone's ability
to make a song by himself blows anyone away.
That's the type of rapper more than anyone
that you could just put him with no music in the background
just a cappella he will turn it into a song.
He has three, four different very strong voices
that go anywhere from really skilled singing.
He has this murderous voice, he has obviously the slow harmonising,
then he could speed it up
and be in the top 10 fastest rappers in the world.
He's just a cool [censored].
He is skill wise and persistence in his career,
I have to say the best rapper ever.
A lot of people say like, "Biggie's flow,
Biggie is known for his flow."
Look, I've got Biggie in the background, I'm about to run down on Biggie.
Biggie had a good flow but really think about it.
Biggie's flow compared to Krayzie Bone's,
it's not even comparable.
He's not even one-tenth the flower of Krayzie Bone is,
but he's known for his flow.
How can you say Biggie's one of the best rappers ever
for his flow and then not consider Krayzie Bone?
His voices are ridiculous.
Even when he gets into the chopping scene,
with chopping rappers, so there's Tech N9ne,
there's Twista, Krayzie Bone, and whoever, Busta Rhymes,
I wouldn't put him there, but they're so simple compared to him.
They have this one voice, they have this one tone,
this one speed that they do, but he can keep up with them.
He can just put so much variety into it.
Like I said, if you listen to Bone Thugs' career,
Bone Thugs, they've got to be the most successful rap group ever.
If you listen to all their songs, if you took Krayzie Bone
out of them songs, they would not be songs.
He literally does all of the hooks.
He does all of the harmonised intros.
He always has the best verse.
Sometimes Bizzy Bone will compete with him but he is like the glue.
He is everything in that group and no one gives him credit
for that either.
Also, he's been rapping since, what?
1992 he literally puts out gun songs till today.
Bone's been rapping for 30 years all himself.
He still kills it.
I don't know.
I do love Klark Wayne, Passionate MC.
I love Vinnie Paz and self-titled, but all in their own ways
but I wouldn't compare them to the Krayzie Bone as a whole.
Man, I'm not going to say, I'm just saying my guys, all right?
That's very debatable.
You know he's better, who's better.
I love Sakuraba, Kazushi Sakuraba.
I love the fact that it was his time in the late '80s, early '90s
that the Gracies who the biggest pushers of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu,
which is a weapon art,
traveled the world putting out this challenge to all martial artists,
boxers, kickboxers, anyone, all these other
I just think my AirPods died.
Can you speak to me?
No, no, no, I can still hear.
No, no, it wasn't the AirPods.
Sorry, just cut that bit out.
When this Gracie clan were going around the world
pushing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and winning.
They were literally saying to everyone,
"We will destroy you as boxers.
Boxing is nothing.
Kickboxing is nothing.
Kung-Fu is nothing.
Fight us."
They went around the world, they beat everyone.
You can't as a sole individual art, it's just this versus this.
MMA fighters are just completely combined now,
all right?
Everyone is good at everything.
They still in some,
they are not so good in others but they've got a whole range of skills.
If you're going to go one skill against one skill,
then Jiu-Jitsu is just so dominating.
You can't beat them.
They literally just tackle you and you die, you know what I mean?
They on the floor they cut you up.
Gracies, they make themselves into this
They were just superstars.
They were untouchable.
Everyone was like, "What is Jiu-Jitsu?
This and that."
Here you have Sakuraba, all these people are nearly undefeated,
this Gracie clan.
Sakuraba, this Japanese bloke who done
this form of Japanese wrestling/brawling, all right?
He found out a way to beat them and with his wrestling,
he countered them and he beat them all.
He beat them all.
They couldn't beat him.
He single-handedly, didn't say destroyed the Gracie legacy,
but he stopped them like,
"You don't say the Gracie clan is the best fighters ever now."
You can't say it because how can you say it
because every Gracie went and fought Sakuraba but no one could beat him.
Not only did he beat them, he was like
This is in MMA in Japan.
I think it was in Pride,
he was joking around while he was beating them.
Here you'd have like Royce Gracie UFC champion will smash anyone,
going to Japan to fight Sakuraba and Sakuraba
is doing WWE moves on him and smiling at the crowd
while he's doing the Boston crab on him and stuff like that
and these people, they're shattered.
Because their martial artist, he shattered them.
To say, yeah, but a lot of people did beat Sakuraba after.
Sakuraba wasn't much.
The GOAT Housing Commission houses.
Maroubra's nice, nice location, not a great place.
Balmain, yes, it's good, very good, top 1% in Australia, I would say.
Woolloomooloo's decent, good location but it has to be by far
the GOAT Housing Commission houses but they don't exist no more.
I don't know if that makes it invalid, invalidates the answer
but Millers Point Housing Commission, bro like you're talking about,
I don't know if you've ever been there, but the rocks.
You've got a Housing Commission all through the city, all right?
We're all close to the city, in Sydney City.
We're all close to the city, the land value is ridiculous.
We live in housing commission houses in million-dollar properties.
Hey, lucky for us but Redfern's good, Glebe's is good, all of them.
Millers Point,
you're talking about housing commission houses
where you come out of your house and you look to the left
and you have a whole view of Darling Harbour with the Star.
You look up above you, and it's the Harbour Bridge.
Your local shops are the Rocks.
Your local shops are the Rocks at Circular Quay,
and if you look in front of your house it's across Sydney Harbour
and Luna Park's there.
What the fuck is that?
What is that?
How does Housing Commission even exist there?
That's why the government's done such a [censored] job,
they're like, that place is dead set even land value-wise,
almost the richest place in Australia.
Like it's under the Harbour Bridge, you know what I mean?
You wouldn't even expect houses to be there,
let alone Housing Commissions.
The government said like,
"That can't happen, we're selling them off,"
and they did.
They've done that and they kicked them all out,
they sold them all off, but that place was dead set
50% housing commission.
If you go there today the Rocks, and Millers Point,
then the whole Kent Street, half of Argyle Street,
the whole Windmill Street, Lower Fort Street,
half of that was Housing Commission's.
People were living there, in $2 million Sandstone Heritage houses
that are worth $1.8 million each if they're one or two bedrooms,
for $90 a week, $90 a week.
You understand why when they went to kick them out these people went

I like all my hood logic, is goated just to be honest,
but it has to be the original hood logic where I just called it hood logic,
which is just a general 59-second rundown of the way that someone
in the hood lives life, all right?
It wasn't an in-depth explanation of how to do anything.
It was, this is what you do, you do this, you do that,
you make sure you do this and do that.
That is the GOAT.
The original hood logic,
but the more in-depth supplementary hood logic from the Hood Logic Series,
I would say it's The Naysayer.
My hood logic where I said the Naysayer.
The Naysayer where I refer to everyone in your life specifically
referring to me, people in my life telling me,
"You can't do this, you're that."
Because people in your life they will always
That's how they are.
That's how they are because humans are gronks,
but when you do something they say,
"Don't do this.
You're that"
Then you do it and they just change it, you know what I mean?
"You're from jail, you can't rap.
Go back to jail."
Then when you're rapping, they're like,
"So you're rapping?"
Then you want to play streaming games,
"You can't stream games, you're a rapper."
What do you mean I'm a rapper?
You just told me I'm from jail don't rap,
and now because I rap and stream games, you're telling me to give up the rap.
They do that your whole life.
Whatever you try to do, whatever you try to achieve,
they just say you get out of place, you're out of your depth, go back.
Naysayers, but I've been copping them my whole life,
look at me now bruh, I'm flying.
Remember?
Remember naysayers when I was in the shadows overdosing?
Now look at me.
I walk the streets getting photos with fans everywhere.
I got to hide because I'm so famous.
I stay home, I play video games, and I make money.
I make money without video games, I'm eets lad.
Hello, naysayers.
