Francis Magalona RIP

I've been a fan of Francis Magalona since his Bagets days. That was during the 80's folks, when break dancing was one of the norms all around the world. I was in third grade i think. It was in the early 90's when he released his album Yo! that made him what he is today until his death - "The King of Pinoy Rap". You have to respect the man for planting the seeds of hip-hop in the country and inspired all the rap artist in the country and some amboy rappers in the US.

My bandmate and friend Rudebong texted me about the news. He was able to watch the announcement made by Vic Sotto in Eat Bulaga this afternoon. Texted some musician friends about the news to confirm it and true enough, Kiko has passed away. This post may not be related to anything that we post here but i think it is valid enough for this one. We lost a good artist, musician and friend and he will be always remembered as "The King" and he will go down in our musical history as one of the best.
