A braggadocio flex track built on video-game references, pop-culture punchlines, and the central dare that nobody else can match the energy

Mario Kart, Steph Curry, and Donatello: Inside ALLDAY PROJECT's 'DO IT LIKE THIS'

E Editorial Desk

The entire song pivots on a dare: nobody else can pull this off. That's not subtext, it's the hook repeated roughly a dozen times. What makes "DO IT LIKE THIS" interesting isn't the boast itself (brag rap is as old as rap) but the specific vocabulary the song reaches for to build the brag. It is a flex track assembled almost entirely from millennial and Gen Z cultural debris: Mario Kart Wii, Steph Curry, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Tommy Wiseau, Uncle Grandpa.

Released on September 28, 2026 as part of the "CRASH - EP," the track runs a tight 2:14, which is roughly the ideal length for a song this reliant on repetition. There is barely enough space for two verses between the chorus cycles, and that compression is the point.

The hook as thesis

The chorus does almost no work beyond asserting superiority, but the four lines that follow it are a mission statement in miniature. Private jets at "light speed," a new car compared to Mario Kart Wii, and a Steph Curry wrist that "miss no freethrow." This is the flex vocabulary of a generation raised equally on highlight reels and Nintendo. The references don't try to sound expensive in a traditional luxury-rap way; they sound expensive in a specifically online, screens-first way.

Verse one: the clever kid

The first verse pivots from pure flex to self-portrait. The narrator introduces himself as a "real nice fellow" who gets "crazy" on a beat but is "mellow" in real life, a distinction that's almost old-fashioned in its clarity. He compares playing the industry to playing a cello, calls himself Donatello (the TMNT bar specialist, fittingly), and insists he has "no cars, got drive." That last line is the clearest statement of ethos in the song: the braggadocio is aspirational more than literal. The verse closes by shouting out Zay as a collaborator and claiming the beat has been "killed," a standard flex but delivered with the superstition framing that gives it a bit of texture.

Verse two: harder, cruder, funnier

The second verse abandons the "nice fellow" framing. It opens with an explicit sexual boast, moves into a battle-rap posture ("3 hits, ooh K-O"), and stacks a run of punchlines that lean heavily on cartoon and movie references. "Angel on the track but I'm a demon" is a standard duality bar, but "Uncle Grandpa how that boomer speaking" and the Tommy Wiseau line ("yall some real bad actors") are doing something stranger: using absurdist, dated TV references as insults, which lands as both goofy and genuinely dismissive. The closer, "Known world wide, and I don't even got a passport," is the sharpest line in the song. It punctures the jet-setting imagery of the chorus and admits, with a wink, that the fame being claimed is internet fame, not customs-stamp fame.

Why it works

The track isn't trying to say anything beyond "I'm nicer than you and here are jokes to prove it," and it stays disciplined about that goal. The references do the heavy lifting: Mario Kart stands in for a whip, a basketball free-throw stands in for aim, a cello stands in for mastery, Donatello stands in for lyricism. For a listener who grew up with those reference points, the song reads less like boasting and more like a shared vocabulary being used efficiently.

Whether "DO IT LIKE THIS" endures will depend less on these verses than on whether the hook's cadence gets picked up on short-form video. The structure is built for it: a repeating four-bar taunt, a four-bar flex, and two verses short enough to clip. It's a song designed to be dared with, not studied, and it mostly succeeds on those terms.

"DO IT LIKE THIS"

Bet you can't do it like this this though, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this, hoe, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this this though, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this, hoe, ooh

Bet you can't do it like me, though

Steph Curry wrist, I miss no freethrow

Hello

No hoes but I'm a real nice fellow

On a beat crazy, real life mellow

This beat makes my knees go jello

Now I'm in the game I'm gonna play it like cello

You can call me Donatello imma hit 'em with the bars

No cars, got drive, bet the boys go far

These kids, bees knees, and the noise goes hard

When I'm on TV, imma send a postcard

And y'all can't do it like this

Or Do what I did

Or Take a beat and chew it like this

I'm used to this

The views the disses

Leave 'em hanging, crucifixes

Used to hate but now they miss him

Got the passion got the mission

Hes the kid, that never misses

Zay plus me is good addition

Killed the beat, we superstitious

Bet you can't do it like this this though, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this, hoe, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this this though, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this, hoe, ooh

Bet you can't do it like me, though

Fly around the world on a jet, light speed though

Cop a new whip, Mario Kart Wii though

Steph Curry wrist, I miss no freethrow

Bet you can't do it like this this though, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this, hoe, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this this though, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this, hoe, ooh

Bet you can't do it like me, though

Fly around the world on a jet, light speed though

Cop a new whip, Mario Kart Wii though

Steph Curry wrist, I miss no freethrow

Bet you can't do it like this

Ima fuck on ya bitch, make her nut on my dick

Now she wanna call me bae, got me tagged in her pics

I mean what can I say, she a fiend for the drip

Now she do whatever I say so

Shit still slaps like chicken alfredo

Nate hit me up so I said okay, tho

You don't wanna battle, 3 hits, ooh K-O

Angel on the track but I'm a demon

You don't wanna see what Billy scheming

Uncle Grandpa how that boomer speaking

555 pull 5s and leave you leaking

I'm a bad role model with some real bad habits

Talkin big shit you get folded ass backwards

Tommy Wiseau, yall some real bad actors

Known world wide, and I don't even got a passport

Bet you can't do it like this this though, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this, hoe, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this this though, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this, hoe, ooh

Bet you can't do it like me, though

Fly around the world on a jet, light speed though

Cop a new whip, Mario Kart Wii though

Steph Curry wrist, I miss no freethrow

Bet you can't do it like this this though, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this, hoe, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this this though, ooh

Bet you can't do it like this, hoe, ooh

Bet you can't do it like me, though

Fly around the world on a jet, light speed though

Cop a new whip, Mario Kart Wii though

Steph Curry wrist, I miss no freethrow

04 · FAQ

Frequently asked

What does the Mario Kart Wii line mean in 'DO IT LIKE THIS'?
"Cop a new whip, Mario Kart Wii though" compares buying a car to picking a kart in the Nintendo racing game. It's a flex translated into a gaming reference, suggesting the rapper swaps vehicles as casually as choosing a character on a menu screen.
Who is Donatello referring to in 'DO IT LIKE THIS'?
Donatello is the purple-masked Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle known as the brainy, tech-focused member. The narrator picks that name specifically because he's about to "hit 'em with the bars," aligning himself with the smart-strategist archetype rather than the muscle.
What's the meaning of 'Known world wide, and I don't even got a passport'?
It's the song's most self-aware line. After a chorus full of jet-setting imagery, the narrator admits his fame is digital, not geographic. He's reached a global audience through screens without ever leaving the country, which quietly reframes the whole flex of the track.
Why does 'DO IT LIKE THIS' reference Steph Curry?
The "Steph Curry wrist, I miss no freethrow" line uses the Golden State Warriors guard as shorthand for perfect aim and release. Curry's shooting form is iconic enough that invoking his wrist instantly communicates precision without needing further setup.
Who is Zay in 'DO IT LIKE THIS'?
Zay is named in verse one as a collaborator: "Zay plus me is good addition / Killed the beat, we superstitious." The lyrics don't elaborate on who Zay is beyond that partnership, but the shout-out frames the track as a duo effort rather than a solo flex.
Why are there so many cartoon references in the second verse?
Lines invoking Uncle Grandpa and Tommy Wiseau's "The Room" use absurd or ironic pop culture as insult material. Rather than threaten in traditional battle-rap terms, the narrator compares opponents to famously ridiculous characters, which lands as both a joke and a put-down.
How does 'DO IT LIKE THIS' fit on the 'CRASH - EP'?
At 2:14, it's a short, hook-driven track built around a repeated taunt and two compact verses. On a short-form EP, it functions as the pure confidence cut, leaving longer narrative or emotional work to other songs on the project.
