UDD Fan Kuno?!

06/06/2018 08:41:23 AM

Hindi ako fan ng Up Dharma Down – o mas pansinin bilang UDD. At malamang aaminin ko rin na hindi ko ganun kagusto ang musika nila, maliban sa mga iilang mga kanta na naririnig ko ng ilang beses mula noong sumikat sila (and to be fair, magaganda sila – sapat para maging bahagi ng playlist ko).
