“12,000 Miles” serves as a short but effective opener for Greatest Hits, Vol. 1, setting the tone for the rest of the project. On the song, the duo raps about keeping to themselves, threatening their opposition.

The title is a reference to a show they performed in Australia, approximately 11,400 miles from their hometown of Miami.

Unlike most of Pouya’s material, the song wasn’t previewed prior to its release. This is presumably a result of him trying to cut down on the snippets.
