Pinoy Hip-Hop

Über Pinoy Hip-Hop

Pinoy hip-hop is Filipino rap in Tagalog and Taglish, launched into the mainstream by Francis Magalona, whose 1990 Mga Kababayan fused nationalist pride with West Coast rhythm. It grew into a vehicle for sharp social commentary in the hands of storytellers like Gloc-9, and in the streaming era Filipino rappers such as Ez Mil have reached a global audience. Fast, wordy, and rooted in everyday struggle, it is one of the country's most vital modern genres.
