This is the Filipino hip hop that we need..Hindi yung mga walang ka sense sense na nag sisikatan ngayon..this is more deserving.
* cough * ExB * cough *
exb is trash gtfo!
yea. rap about love is too mainstream. our country need music to awaken our sense of nationality and identity. to not belittle ourselves and compare and be jealous of other country.
👍👍👍
Idk sir iba iba kasi yung branch ng rap may alternative, horror core, love song and etc. This kind of rap is indeed more deserving than other mumble Filipino rappers, but this kind of rap is not easy to catch or relate to (idk kasi the lyrics lyrics are not that redundant like the other rap songs) like the mainstream rappers who uses words repeatedly siguro some of them are not quite well knowledgeable in Filipino vocabulary.
Filipina/ Mexican here!!! I’ve definitely felt the struggle on both sides. I was raised by a STRONG Filipina mother. Makes me proud to see this!!!
I’m also Filipino /Mexican ❤️ MEXIPINO POWER
@@brooklynybarra4233 I didn't thought that this combination could exist LOL. Filipinos and Mexican.
You are called "mestiza", which means -- Filipina-Spanish descendant ("mestizo" for masculine).
Isabella Rodriguez Why would you think it doesn’t exist? there are a lot of Filipino/ Mexican people. Thousand of Filipinos moved to Mexico during the Spanish empire also.

I am an African-American woman from Newark, NJ, and I currently live in the DC Metro area. I am literally in tears after watching this beautiful artistry. Although I do not know you personally, I am so very proud of you for uplifting your culture and women. RESPECT.
I’m from NJ too. I’m Filipino-American. I was just curious what rap from the Philippines sounds like. This girl’s flow reminds me of Cardi B.
Old white dude caught this on fire as well!
RESPECT !!! 🤍🇵🇭
Jersey in the house! I'm born in sactown but MADE in Philly lol come visit sac jersey heads
mad respect
A year ago, an American recommended me this song saying she loves Philippine history and respects Filipinos. I can't believe I did not know Ruby Ibarra then. Filipinos have to give this the attention it deserves.
Yo, as an African American... im feelin these sisters... we all fight the same struggle... shit we all came from the same damn people anyway!!! I got ya’lls back 100% hit me up when you need a shooter💪🏾
Yes sir
thats why filipino are the black people in asia.
jimThaDon vlogg they’re better in music/hip hop than anybody else?
i think we're better on everything..
jimThaDon vlogg thoughts are cool! Live the dream bro
Coming from a African descent women. I really love my Asian sistas. Keep it up!!!🔥🔥💗👍

Chris Bush III they’re still Asian so she’s right
pinoy islander we are austronesian, genetically speaking but we are South East Asian in ethnicity and culture. we have strong ancient influence from China and we are literally from south east Asia.

Hello! I am a very light-skinned Filipina and often don't feel like I am worthy of being of this amazing ethnicity. I hear a lot that I could never actually be Filipino or that I am blatantly lying about my ethnicity but your words definitely made me feel better about who I am and who my ancestors are! :)
It doesn’t matter it’s your blood sis!!! Be proud to be pinay no matter what
Your culture is imbedded within your soul and DNA, your skin colour will never define your connection to your culture -
Yours sincerely, another light skinned Islander.
I'm Samoan though but I feel what you are saying as I felt it within my my own culture
I am half filipino and have been told the same thing which has greatly made me question my identity - this song gave me chills and is making me look at my heritage in a new light. When I learned of my family’s history in school all we learned was how the Philippines was conquered/colonised over and over by different countries. We never learned of all the brave pinays who stood up against oppression and fought for their country. This song has showed me there is so much more to our heritage than what we learned in school. I am still questioning and exploring my filipino identity but this songs me proud even if I am only half filipino
@@musicalmiller there’s no half this and half that- that’s blood quantum shit and it’s weird. You’re Pinxy! I also struggle with my identity there too- I think many of us do.
Same :)
The first time I heard this song there was a visceral reaction in my soul. I was so shook my ancestors felt it, the ones raped by Spaniards, the ones who had their lands stolen, the ones who hid in their children in bales of hay when they fought the Japanese. I didn’t know I needed this, truly decolonized incredibly intelligent piece in my life. I felt like I woke up again yo, so much strength, so much pride. This anthem has kept me going this year. Y’all are the bad asses. Filipinas years from now will continue to discover and be moved by your work. Keep fucking it up yo.
Hey, what's up?..
You forget the Americans
Period
❤️❤️❤️
Same
"your dna contains building blocks made from the mud of over 500 years of resistance and survival"
yeah but they dna also contains spanish blood, european blood, white blood, just like us hispanics, rappers need to stop dividing the cultures, we all humans.. im glad not all filipinos share their ideology that the white mans trying to see them down or kill them.. come on bruh.. who after yall?? point them out and ill help.. who is THEY lol yall over privilege americans playing the victim card
00
Those Spanish, European, white blooded people were always the ones dividing the cultures, seeing others down and killing them. What books did you read?? Find some that aren't colonial white supremacist propaganda.
Thats every single human alive but its more like thousands of years
Lewis Rivers I understand what you’re saying, but however not all of us Filipinos have Spanish or European blood. My family has always been from the islands and has never married outsiders/foreigners
I’m only 25% Filipina but I was raised with my Filipino side & it’s the side of my family that I’ve always identified with the most. As a kid I felt not Filipino enough for the Filipino kids in school and not white enough for the white kids.. but this song gave me chills and absolutely has awoken my ancestors of my blood. Proud Filipina here, even if it’s only a quarter 🥰
I’ve always felt like my blood was a war because it has both colonizers and oppressed in it, but my visayan lineage is stronger than any of my colonizer bloodline could ever be.
This made me cry.. this is the ongoing struggle for us Filipinos born & raised in other countries.
It's a struggle to have to be both. I'm a quarter white and I identify more with being Filipina. But here people think I'm Native or Mexican. I started putting a 🇵🇭 sticker on my work badge just so people can get it right. Or at least ask what flag that is.
We're not Filipino enough for the Filipinos and not such & such for (insert country, including Fils in other countries besides America, here)
I heard the same thing from people in America who hail from other countries.
As Indian-American rapper, Raja Kumari said in her song "N.R.I"
"Sorry that my sari ain't Indian enough
And America don't love me 'cause I'm Indian as fuck"
I'm not Indian but this speaks to me deeply. Because it's ALL of our struggles.
The problem with talking to some family members, they'll bash the shit outta you for not knowing Tagalog but they're never ready for that conversation of "But they raised me here in America. They NEVER taught me Tagalog. They wanted me to assimilate"
Yes, I know. We can always learn now but it's so much harder to learn a language as an adult, not to mention not having people to speak it to, so no practice. I live in Missouri now.. Filipinos are scarce, they're here. Just spread out. ☹️
I am making an effort to learn though. It's my goal before I die. I know some sentences & songs. I can sort of understand but having a full conversation is a struggle.
One memory that has stuck with me ever since I was 15. I was stuck in a van on a road trip. With my brother's (technically half but I consider him my brother-brother) side of the family. We were going to San Francisco. Our grandma was speaking to me. All I said was "opo" in response.. my brother's aunt said "Is that all you know, 'opo'?" With such a tone & facial expression of disdain and annoyance. I just said "..yeah.." w/a tone that accepted defeat. That fucking hurt.. bad. 🥺
I just wanted to leave the van and run but couldn't go anywhere. Couldn't do a thing except turn my head away & look out the window. I put my sweater over my face and cried silently.
Since then, it's been triggering for me when other Filipinos say "oh you can't speak Tagalog. Then you're not Filipino enough" or "not a real Filipino". Those "jokes" are so counterproductive, hurtful, & disrespectful.
Anyway, sorry this was long.. I needed to vent a little.
@@xsoxcalxparamourx that's because you fell for liberal bullshit
There is no such thing as a Quarter Filipina. You are all that you are, all of it. You are as blood related to your ancestors than any cousin. Give the quarter back to the dollar. No one is half anything. We are all whole.
Doesn't matter of your DNA. It's the culture

It was at that moment I realized this girl is American not Filipina
I am not Filipino nor do I understand all the lyrics but this song is HARD. Props to you for representing your culture and being able to convey the pride you have for your people.
🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I agree one hundred percent!
this track brings tears to my eyes tbh.
I am Mexican and the Spaniards did a number in my homeland.
Tracks like this are crucial and vital to empowering people to resist the effects of colonialism.
Power to these sisters and the struggles they face.
Also, as an aside, just like, the production of the video and the music are so fucking good.
Amazing track exceptional talent.
Hasta la victoria, siempre.
You are Spanish yourself
@@steveg7184some are but most aren’t, really depends on his history
This! This is why as an Ilocano, though I am Intersectional, non-racial, Colonials would have referred to me as Mestiza. Being Ilocano, I understand the 400 years of Gorilla Warfare. We grew up in Oral Traditions. Unlike the other Indigenous Peoples of the Americas where Indigenous Peoples never could break free. In the Philippines, we have this core Soul Ethic. It runs from Island to Island. Not just the Philippines but I found it in Islanders who were story tellers in Queensland Austral too. We have this Island blood, we understand being Captives of Colonials. And, we have had these conversations for generations. It's like in our blood and our storytelling. We know other Indigenous Peoples around the World have been through the same historic treatment. And, our Rebellion is not just for Our Tribe. Our story tellers are freeing souls from the past generations of enslavement to fear, isolation and humility. We come from generations of people who say, "Think with your heart". You cannot get to know us until you are speaking from your heart. Because it's our core ethic - being real from our heart to yours.
This is the kind of song that speaks from the heart. We still feel the pain and struggles of our ancestors. This is currently my hype song. I wish more people would listen to this!
I just listened to it for the 1st time today.
Im Mexican a'f but the message transcends through varies cultures. Keep It up gained fan!!

first off, this video needs to go viral. Filipinas have been constantly overseen by many in this country. The gag is a filipina is strong af, taking on so much for her family without even a crack in her smile. but this video talking about our culture which bleeds and spans for so long, it makes me cry but now im crying for other reasons. Now Im crying because im proud that I was blessed with being 1/2 filipina and seeing these women stand up, its powerful. More brown women. More women. Ancestors are smiling. My daughter will never not know what she comes from.
Thank you.

Illam ko nang hirap-hirapan mo ate, maraming salamat sa kababayan naatin. Ang takot ko, parang wala nang nalalaman nang culturan naatin. Parang walang pride sa roots naatin.
This is one of my favorite videos of all time. I am not Pinoy, my girlfriend is, her daughter is, my goddaughters are, my godson is. When I hear this song it is a celebration of these amazing people that are in my life. I am so very grateful and proud.
I'm genuinely sad this isn't heard by many. Even if it's late, I hope this gets heard by more people especially during these times.
I just heard it today and hopefully others hear it too
I'm Mexican and this is beautiful I cried the chills are so real and our resistance in this existence is the same ✊✊✊
Primera Segunda same I'm Mexican too but this song gives me life ...our struggle is one struggle
brrr I don't hear it but... if she did say it then 1. they'd be no different than any white supremacist 2. this is native Land which they're occupying so the joke would be on them.
"They putting these PIGS into office."
i guess that sounds right lol. im not mad or anything, its just what i thought i heard at first glance.
...u know this is tagalog (filipino), right?
Korean here supporting the talented & courageous Filipinas.
Very rare for a korean to look up on us filipinos and its an honor to be supported by you thank you and godbless
K E How can others look up to us when we look down on ourselves.
Respect the 3 waves of the modern Filipino. Afro-Asiatics, Austronesian Malays and Polynesian Malays ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
As a biracial Thai American woman… this hits hard. I’ve needed women like you in my life for a long time. So glad I found you through the Asian Enough podcast. I was in tears this whole video. Thank you for being you. Your words are fire that my soul recognizes.
As a Filipino Feminist I was so happy that a Filipino hiphop music like this exists. I cried after hearing the lines about empowerment and social issues that Filipinos continue to experience every day through the oppressive government. Thank you! Please make more political songs like this!
Feminists? Puhahahaha get the fuck outta here
Me too. 😢💛

🔥🔥🔥. I’m an African American woman , but I feel everything thru all of your lyrics! What a way to represent and pay homepage to your culture, women and ancestors ❤️❤️
I remember as a kid, whenever I visited my family in the Bay Area, my aunt would always talk to me about being a proud Filipino, learning the language and preserving the culture. While I was always proud of my heritage, she was on another level that I didn’t quite understand as a kid. On one visit to the Bay, she took me to a youth conference in Sacramento. It was only at that moment I realized that she was an activist for Filipino identity and empowerment. She was a speaker at that conference. The energy and solidarity I felt at that conference is something I have never experienced here in Hawaii. Only as an adult did I understand the full meaning behind my aunt’s work and message. I got chills when I watched this video because I can feel the strength and power in these ladies and my aunt’s legacy lives on through them.
Rest in Power Tiya Nonie Briones
You should write about this! I'm sure many people would love to read about it.
Its good to see an actual Filipina proud of her culture. Most of the ones I've met are mentally colonized and all want to mimic their European colonizers or seek approval from them .
My struggle is being colonized and wanting approval from my Filipino family and friends.
My whole life has been them looking down on the fact that I've never been to the Philippines. I was never taught the language. None of that was my fault. When I say I'm Filipino. I say I'm Filipino-American. Because then they expect me to speak Tagalog. I've become so insecure be about it....
Another one is being thought of as Mexican. Now I'm not hating on the Mexican ladies because they're beautiful. I'm just so sick and tired of being considered Mexican. Even the Filipinos at my job thought I was. 💔
Another one that's not a big deal anymore is I rarely date Filipino guys. I don't even wanna date them anymore because they don't like me. They don't consider me Filipina. Could be because I look Mexican or because I can't speak Tagalog. Whatever the case. I don't even give them a second glance anymore.
Angel Blackhorse I’m mestizo blood Mexican Filipino German and I know how it feel not to be able to fit in anywhere ppl made fun of me for not being full
Blood but I’m proud of myself
Mentally colonized? My dude, if you were born in a western country, you will most likely support that country and it's people. I lived in Philippines (Baguio) for 5 years and although I enjoyed all those years, I will still fight for my home country (United States) I'm a Filipino American.
@@angelaranda8899 I've been looked down and made fun of so much. I'm trying to change that
Came across this song about a week ago and I’ve already listened to it 50 times! Haven’t heard something this good in a long time.
Lyrics
HOOK (Klassy)
Island woman rise, walang makakatigil/
Brown, brown woman, rise, alamin ang yung ugat/
They got nothin’ on us (aye!) Nothin’ on us (aye!)
Nothin’ on us (aye!) Nothin’ on us/
Island woman rise, walang makakatigil/
Brown, brown woman, rise, alamin ang yung ugat/
They got nothin’ on us (aye!)
Nothin’ on us (aye!) Nothin’ on us (aye!)
Isang bagsak!/
VERSE 1 (Ruby Ibarra)
Yo fuck a story arc if it don’t involve no matriarchs/
Our mothers work from the ground up, they craftin air like ATR/
With the butterfly sleeves naka Filipiniana, pag nagsalita mga banat ay bala/
‘Wag magtaka kung ako ay makata bulok na sistema, korakot sa pera, bagsak!/
But we puttin’ our heart into darkness, they puttin’ these pigs into office/
Oh you thinkin’ you schoolin’? but you hella lost ‘cuz you Betsy Devos while I taught this/
But Look at my ate she movin so cold, can’t hold a candle to her when she glow/
Flick of the wrist with the ilaw she hold, Pandanggo sa Ilaw, she drippin’ in gold/
VERSE 2 (Rocky Rivera)
We pullin' up in a Jeepney
All of my soldiers greet me/
Hand me bandanas and pull back my hammer, it’s warfare, when you see me/
Skin you alive for my country, I live and die for my country/
I kill a pig in a white hooded suit on the low....for my country/
They got evil plans in the devil’s hands, but I don't pray cuz I organize/
They got new ways to impose strength, so I teach mine how to mobilize/
We don’t fight for the money, for the greedy, for the white man/
All we want is our freedom, and the right to live on on our motherland/
HOOK
VERSE 3 (Klassy)
Goddess of guerilla warfare in every lifetime/
We don’t take no shit except an oppressor’s lifeline/
If you step out of your line, I will protect what’s mine/
Kahit merong rosaryo, sinong magliligtas sa’yo?/
Puro dugo, pugot ulo, mula sa dagat hanggang mundo/
Reclaiming what ours, the high and the low/
These women are Gods, you already know/
Roots deeper than water that run in our village/
The river runs red, you’ll be dead in a minute/
Like Nieves Fernandez, have you beheaded/
Fuck with my tribe, quickly regret it/
VERSE 4 (Ruby Ibarra)
Abaniko sa kamay at isang mikropono sabay/
At ang tapang ko gaya ng inay, at halimaw na ang sumasabay/
Mga bara nyo lahat sablay, mga rappers na puro bangkay/
Tinamaan ko lahat, patay, kaya, walang magiingay/
I got that, Filipino phenotype: kayumanggi, mestizo-white/
But give me that moreno like that Rufio or Keno type/
My lolas they be speaking like, those balisongs or bolo knife/
I breathe the ether need no hype, two tongues that’s sharper with a mic/
Anino in my history like from a land where greed is weaved in tight/
They thieve until one piso might just turn to C-Notes, see no light/
Hacienda like Aquino, right? Rodrigo vigilante type--/
They kill my titos left and right, when smoke and mirrors fill the night/
SPOKEN WORD (Faith Santilla)
So let it be known, if you don’t already/
Pinays have always been part, and parcel, if not, imperative and critical to the struggle/
Filipinas are no strangers to wielding our own power/
Of all the privileges that exist in this world, none of which you may be a benefactor of/
There is at least one you bare/
And that is the privilege of having been born a Filipina/
Your DNA contains building blocks made from the mud of over 500 years of resistance and survival/
And when you are ready, sis, we’ll be right here/
HOOK
(You're welcome)
“Hacienda like Aquino, right? Rodrigo vigilante type they kill my titos left and right, when smoke and mirror fill the night” Damn🔥

beastacz beastacz I don’t need it to feel empowered. I said it makes me feel empowered. There’s a difference and unless you’re a Filipino American woman I don’t think you’ll understand.
foomatic21 lol I'm Mexican have you ever been harassed by gang unit or ice didn't think so
Mrs Torres not one time did I put that I was down or braver than your people just saying I Filipinos don't have it that hard at least read the whole comment before you get triggered and write nonsense.
I'm a FIL-Am guy.
At 3:50...I felt like you were talking to me. I just busted-out crying like a little baby. I grew up around blacks and Latino's. And though I have love for them, I always felt like I was missing something in my life, as if I were lost. The first time I saw this video, I was blown away just for the fact that these beautiful Pinays have lyrical skills. Months later, I'm watching this video for the second time. I get the message! Sometimes, I wish I were born on the West Coast surrounded by other Fil-Ams like me. I love y'all. I love US.
i literally just saw this 2 years after it was released. why? why havent i heard and seen this before like omg??? wha this is great!
I'm Indian American, and I love this song (this whole album!) so much. Brown women rise indeed!
100% all Brown women are beautiful we need to be strong in this together!
When I first went to the Philippines with my grandparents like 1980, I noticed my cousins looked Indian. My nephew did his DNA. His Y-DNA, passed only father to sons, was a South East Asia -Y-DNA. Amongst people in the Philippines who study our ancestors, which of course like my ancestors I do follow the Worship of Ancestors vs Religion, believe from the evidence of anthropology and genetics, some male lines migrated from South East Asia. I have an ancient last name, an ancient Ilocano last name. There is an ancient Sanskrit legend about a warrior with my last name. The female mtDNA matriarchal lines, the original female lines are of Polynesian or Island female lineages. When I first tested at 23andme now years ago, before identifying my Ilocano genes, they identified some of my genes as Polynesian. It took some years to get enough Ilocanos to take the tests. Lol. But I am saying, not all, but at least some male bloodlines crossed from the Continent migrating fo the islands. So, when one is any tribe of the Philippines, We All Know by Our Oral Traditions We Share Ancestors throughout the Continent of Asia. And, to be clear, We All Know We Are Related to People Around the World. Because, Islanders Be Traveling.

I'm obsessed. This fills my heart with pride and makes me tear up with joy. I didn't used to be proud to have Filipina heritage but I'm glad I found my way home. This song is like an anthem.
Welcome home sis ❤️
Proudly half Filipino and this is exactly the reason I had to marry a strong, resilient yet loving Filipina! Even being half Filipino, I see the pride of our people, culture and heritage and therefore I see the beauty and strength of our women 🔥🇵🇭💯✊🏽 Want to instill this into our kids as well
This is the representation that I’ve been looking for. I’ve always been passionate of our history and the strength we hold. I just love this.

This song empowers the true strength of a Filipina despite of the current issues of today such as the Kuwait-OFW slain murder, Colorism in the beauty industry, Minimum Wage, Discrimination from Misogynists, Rape and Sexual Harassment among women and many more. It doesn't matter whether you've grown up in the PH or in the other countries. It doesn't matter if you're a pure one or a biracial. All that matters is that DNA inside you that keeps your true Filipina identity come alive. This song has opened doors for Filipina Empowerment. Long live the Island Women!!!

This is too much! I've looped this track I don't know how may hundreds of times already. An instant classic.
And Klassy with that mousy little voice, but what she spit... Got me _shook,_ I tell you
same lol - paying attention
As a person of color this song really resonated with me because of the struggles my people continue to face for over 400 years. The delivery of the message through the art form of Hip Hop was done masterfully from the lyrics to beat, I felt the base in my soul.
We should always aim to live peacefully with all men, but we should never be content with any strong holds of oppression whether it mind or body, or modern or ancient history. Our oppressor is only most comfortable with diversity for as long as they sit at the top of that hierarchy controlling and moving all the chess pieces on the board. When the Filipinas are in a position of subjugation and servitude the oppressor is completely comfortable because he is glorified and worshipped by those who are without understanding and knowledge of self and sadly ignorantly re-enforce many false doctrine and miseducation among their own people. The truth is the Spaniards oppressed the Philippines and the ruthless legacy of this is still worn by the many faces of the Philippines. Sadly by some this tyrannical lineage can be seen as a badge of honor
I admire and respect the women of this video, represent your people and be proud.
Much respect. 👍
I just love you guys dayumm ❤❤❤❤
JESUS CHRIST....THIS SONG HAS BEEN ON LOOP LIKE 50 TIMES NOW....SICK AF
I'm just a black dude from NY and I felt the vibes from this track!! Awesome stuff!!
What a beautiful and very powerful track.....love it
I really love this work. Thank you Ruby Ibarra and team. This is so empowering.
Beautiful music video. I was kinda worried about the appearance of traditional costume. I know as asians are very proud about the culture, but some of the prideful show can be cross the border of self-exoticizing or self-orientalizing, i know an artist of my own country that does that to capture western audience. And i'm glad none of that happens here. The traditional costume is not out of context with the message. It's also not sexualizing it. Props to Ruby Ibarra for showing Philippines diversity. I notice some of them are quite similar to my culture.

If you’re ready sis we’ll be right here🇵🇭
I get chills every time! ✊
Fire! Wow all three
Yo the message of this is the dopest and it’s universal asf, this message reaches all people of all races
except for the 'non' brown filipinos & the whites lol
It's a very powerful thing when the director, producer and writer in control of the lens is the artist herself. thank you ruby for repping hard.
This is so freaking cool!
Half Filipino just learning about my grandfather being a guerrilla fighter after the Japanese took Subic Bay in ww2 then I hear this song. Dope as fuck man. Love learning about Filipino history.
This song ALWAYS gives me chills. Listened to it plenty on spotify and only now come across the video and wow. damn powerful
I'm French and I love any rap style, I don't understand all the sentences cause there is a mix between english, tagalog and other dialect from Philippines. Keep it proud from your roots and culture. #realhiphop #hiphopneverdie #southeastasianrap #womenrights
I absolutely love and respect the strength of the new, young, modern Pinay who are just so strong and do not bend to the norms of the Filipino patriarchy. I've see too many of my female relatives suppressed, oppressed, and ultimately depressed from the religious patriarchy and the male rulings without questioning it. I love the strength I see in this. I wish I could meet them and do a short documentary to show this new movement of strong Filipino women who probably would make my mother and other female relatives cringe. But that would be good. All I want to say is KEEP IT UP!!! Pinay Strong! I love it!!!
Beautiful, brilliant, powerful.....
I have to watch this video at least once a week- so much
damn. im crying. all the thoughtful gestation, collective incubation, community love, and hard work definitely reveals itself in the final product. excited for this birth of another beautiful, creative brain child to the world! incredibly grateful you welcomed me and our whole community to be part of this. official pinay anthem. on. repeat!
xoxo, infinite kapwa power,
