A proud Kaurna / Narungga man living in Naarm, Yung Maynie uses Always Was to speak on lived experience, confronting hypocrisy and denial while reaffirming pride, resilience, and continuity. Anchored by the refrain “Always will be and always was", the track makes its stance clear and unapologetic. The single is produced by his younger brother KTB, the track pairs sharp, reflective lyricism with a groovy, upbeat beat that keeps the energy moving while allowing the message to cut through. Yung Maynie also handled mixing and mastering at his own studio, Nineside Studios, highlighting his hands on approach and growth as a complete artist. Always Was marks Yung Maynie’s first single of the year and sets the tone for a strong run of releases throughout 2026, with another major release already lined up for next month, reinforcing why he is fast becoming one of the rising voices in the country’s hip hop scene.
