Bizzy Crook has been on one recently, and the hot streak continues with "John Geiger," a tribute to the eponymous sneaker designer. No offense to Bizzy but the highlight of the song might be the "Big Lebowski" interlude midway through.
In an interview with NiceKicks, Bizzy explained his inspiration for the song:
"I started working on the song the day the freshmen list came out. I wasn’t mad at anybody or nothing, but I just got motivated. John Geiger is a legend and a rebel man. [Laughs] I wanted to make a dope song that paid tribute to someone valid in the culture. There’s all these ‘tastemakers’ these days with more biased opinions than they contribute to the culture. Discover something, put us on to something, break something, change something, do something.
"I’ve been following John on the ‘gram for a minute and I like how he moves. Calm, but mad lit. Humble. John is like Jason Statham. [Laughs] One day I saw a picture of the “Misplaced Checks” AF1s on Twitter and I just got the idea. And I’m about to f**k a check up."
Quotable Lyrics
It's only getting later, I'm only getting greater
This is what you call commitment, what these boys afraid of?
They used to sleep on me, so every night I stayed up
Whoever don't fuck with me, then fuck them niggas straight up.
