Yo, I'm Central C and I'm about to go through the ABCs.
2
I'm saying anti, I've got anti-tattoo here somewhere here.
3
Anti-social.
4
In America, you guys would say anti.
5
B, BBLs.
6
C, I just say my name Central C.
7
The way I got my name Central C is kind of boring.
8
There's no cool backstory to it.
9
It's not even cool.
10
I just kind of made it up.
11
I was super young though.
12
If I had a chance, I'd probably change my name, but everybody knows me now.
13
So there's no going back.
14
I just got this tattoo yesterday, death before dishonor.
15
So yeah, that's that.
16
I don't know.
17
I think it's a nice saying, isn't it?
18
But even when I'm getting it though, I'm quite a contradictive person though and I'm realistic at the same time.
19
Even when I'm getting it, I'm thinking, I don't know how ...
20
The saying is cool in that, but I don't know how to word it up, but I've definitely been dishonest as well.
21
So it's like, I don't know.
22
There's a time and a place, but for the most part,
23
I'd like to say that loyalty is priceless and dishonor is a no-go.
24
E for eggs.
25
I like having eggs in the morning.
26
It's still morning.
27
I haven't ate today.
28
I could probably do some scrambled egg, something like that.
29
F for family.
30
I have family first, I'll tell you here.
31
It means a lot to me, just as most people, but yeah, generic one, F family.
32
G, greatness.
33
I mention greatness a lot in my music.
34
I've got a few times I've said the lyric, can't rush greatness.
35
I think that's an important statement.
36
Can't rush greatness.
37
H for high, not high off of any sort of substances other than life, because I don't drink and I don't smoke.
38
But yeah, being high, high off of life is an important thing.
39
I, international, if you haven't noticed by now, then I'm from the UK.
40
I think being an international artist is a mission that I'm currently on, so yeah, international, aye.
41
J, Jordan's got a big Jordan collection.
42
My favorite Jordan, probably Jordan 4, although I'm kind of falling out of love for Jordans and sneakers as a whole.
43
But yeah, Jordan 4s are cool.
44
I have an extensive collection that's currently just picking up dust and storage that I never get to wear.
45
So it's not that practical. But yeah.
46
K for keys, like the keys that you play, like a musical instrument or whatever.
47
Every beat that we jump on must have keys, I think.
48
L for live yours.
49
If you don't know then Live Yours is like a saying, a slogan that we kind of just always say.
50
It's tattered on me everywhere.
51
We got, yeah, it's like the label, I guess.
52
M for movie, it kind of goes back to the last one, live yours, kind of stemmed from live your movie, which we used to say and we just shortened it to live yours.
53
I believe that everyone should just live their own movie and not be focused on anybody else's, Especially mine, in a position where I'm with a lot of influence.
54
I always try and encourage the fans
55
or the younger people to live their own movie and just enjoy every chapter of it.
56
NDA.
57
I've been getting onto my lawyer for title.
58
Whoever it is that's in charge of writing me at NDA, they need to get one quick.

I've never really made nobody sign one, but it could come in handy.
61

68
Manners go a long way.

That's why I keep thinking about them.
72
But I got the queen, I got the queen's head on my arm because it's on the note and the queen just died.
73
But yeah, the royal family.
74
I feel like it's a big thing in America.
75

I ain't really got much time to rest, but it's very important.
77
S for Sina.
78
S-Y-N-A is the brand.
79
T for like tea and biscuits.
80
That's like a stereotype that people think of when they think of like UK and stuff.
81
I don't think it's as much of a craze as it seems to be but yeah, tea and biscuits.
82
U for useful.
83
You've got to make yourself useful in this life otherwise you'll get left behind.
84
Again, simple as that.
85
V for vegetable, vegan or vegetarian or something like that.
86
I'm such a fussy eater, sometimes I just do myself a favor and lie and say
87
that I'm a vegan instead of going through all the lists of foods that I don't like.
88
Yeah.
89
I'm like a fake vegan right now.

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
