Logic might be a famous musician now, but that wasn’t the case when he was growing up. At eleven years old, he just so happened to discover the series, Cowboy Bebop, and his life was changed forever, “I haven’t thought until now that I’ve witnessed anime growing like it has. It’s so huge and I think because it was such a part of my life. Ever since I was a kid, the true discovery of anime and what that meant, it wasn’t just for kids, it was this expansion of art where I was brought in thanks to Cowboy Bebop, Lupin The 3rd, and Trigun, which are still my favorites to this day. It says a lot about human beings, whatever we discover, we think that’s the best.”
Logic’s Anime Adventure
The rapper continued, “To think about the incredible boom of anime is wild because I remember discovering it in sixth grade and for so many years, it was in the corners. When I hit high school, it became this huge thing and kids were walking around with Goku shirts. You keep discovering things and before you know it, you’re at Anime Expo and doing a panel with a thousand people there. So what’s it been like? It’s been great and it’s like watching a family member succeed.”

In the past, Logic has weaved references to Spike Spiegel and his anime fellows into his music and he might just have more anime easter eggs on the way in his future music.
