A short while at The FlipTop Festival

It was on 20 March 2015 when I first step foot inside a FlipTop event.  The rap battle league staged its annual iteration of  Second Sight at the once-famous B-Side at The Collective in Makati City, where over hundreds of people — including yours truly — stood witnesses for hours to a plethora of singles rap battle matches.

69 Filipino songs that rocked my life in 2010s (Part 6)

It's a shame that it took me two months to finish this personal project. I initially had this in mind since late November and worked on the draft by mid-December. Anyway, here it goes... 

Ten years ago, I tried coming up with a list of my favorite songs of the decade here in this blog. Unfortunately, I ended up shelving it as I got more busy with college studies and post-disaster recovery. 

Fast-forward to present, I became a wanderer in the locality's live music scene – a  far cry from the early years where I dig more of mainstream and foreign stuff.  Though I'm not hating at all, because exciting times took place during the 2010s, with KPop sweeping the world. Of course, the Westerners are still there, and each country making their music heard further across the globe thru Spotify.

Meanwhile, several artists from the synth-pop and hip-hop managed to get across the board – not only in the locality but also in my own preferred jukebox. Here's the fifth part of my nicest-choice songs of the decade.

PlayBack: Zaito - Ganti Ng Patay (album)

More than being a genre, hiphop is getting notices for being one of the standouts for the year 2015. Well, is there any other reason aside from the emergence of the likes of Assembly Generals, Curtismith, and Ninno?
