And with this, we draw to a close our groundbreaking study on the almighty power of hindsight. Wow. I think the results speak for themselves. What a list. What a year. A better year for local rap than 2024 if we’re being honest but I got a good feelin’ ‘bout ‘25.
Henny & Masse. Some things are better than nothing. And some things were better than every other thing released by an Australian rapper in 2023.
Why do I think it was the best song of the year? ‘Cause I’ve got a real heart, brother – what’s your problem?
To me, no one rapped better than Masse did on From Nothing.
