tandang-tanda ko pa nung elementary pa lang ako, kabisado as in saulado ko ang “Mga Kababayan Ko”…
paalam Sir Francis Magalona!
to RockEd Radio,
invite nyo RSP, kantahin nila yung “Ayoko Sa Dilim”
March 8th, 2009 at 1:37 PM
sakto yung image. ang Meron Akong Ano album ang unang-unang tape na binili ko dati. Favorite ko yung Ayoko sa Dilim.
Isang epic album ang Freeman. Three Stars and a Sun. Kaleidoscope World. Pikon. Jolog. andun lahat yun sa album na yun. Naaalala ko pa na hindi ko matanggal-tanggal ang tape ko na yun… in super heavy rotation sha sa cassette player namin.
Bago kami pumunta sa concert ng Eheads ay dumaan kami sa Christ the King para bisitahin si FrancisM. nasa isang tabi ang pamilya nya, lumuluha sila habang nanonood ng tribute episode ng Eat Bulaga.
Nung turn na namin para tignan si Francis, hindi ko napigilang umiiyak… sa kanya ko natutunan na mahalin ang bayan, na gawin natin ang lahat para lang bayan. Sa pamamagitan ng mga awit nya, namumulat tayo sa ganda ng pilipinas, na kahit na maraming nangyayari dito sa bansa natin e nararapat na maging matatag tayo, biglang isang bansa.
Paalam Francis, your music and legacy shall live on.
March 8th, 2009 at 4:05 PM
Thank you for the music. Long Live Master Rapper!
March 8th, 2009 at 7:13 PM
lourd na record ba yung tribute nyo kay francism?
March 8th, 2009 at 7:15 PM
alter-ego ni francis m si pochoy labog. i remember dicta’s tribute to francis m in the mtv pilipinas music awards.
March 8th, 2009 at 8:03 PM
Francis M already left a legacy to Pinoy music, to the youth and to every Pinoy. Dahil sa kanya dapat natin ipagmalaki ang pagiging Pilipino natin. Di nawala sa mga kanta nya yung pagka-nationalistic.
He would always be the Philippines’ one and only Master Rapper. Rest in Peace Sir Kiko!
March 8th, 2009 at 8:14 PM
Oh, bakit andyan na ‘yung Brewrats?
March 8th, 2009 at 8:22 PM
For me…
Francis M bridged the rift beetween pinoy rock and pinoy hip-hop.
May he rest in peace…
March 8th, 2009 at 8:39 PM
Sobrang hirap ng pinagdaanan ni Sir Kiko. I used to keep myself posted on his status by reading his blogs. Dun sa Multiply Site nya na Happy Battle, I was so touched by his last photo. Despite all the pain his experiencing he still had a smile on his face. Neighbor namin sila dito sa Cottonwoods.
March 8th, 2009 at 8:54 PM
last wed lang pinapakinggan ko ung rendition nya nung song ng eheads.=(
whew.
March 8th, 2009 at 8:56 PM
Pakinggan natin ung Koro ulit.
FrancisM da best!
March 8th, 2009 at 11:24 PM
Condolence po sa lahat. lalo na po sa family ni Mr. Master Rapper..he really rocks..
March 8th, 2009 at 11:24 PM
Saludo ako kay idol Francis Magalona.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:25 PM
Mabuhay ka Francis M…Mananatili lang buhay sa puso at diwa ng mga kabataang pinoy.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:27 PM
I’m a fan of FRANCIS M. Bilib ako sa kanya kasi di lang sya nagpauso ng rap.. rap na may rock pa!
March 8th, 2009 at 11:29 PM
The only thing that he said na tumatak sa isip ko ay, “there won’t be peace on earth unless we live as one”, lupet di ba?
March 8th, 2009 at 11:30 PM
I was flabbergasted when I heard the news about his passing. FM is one of the reasons why I still listen to rap. I think Phil. rap will never be the same without him.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:31 PM
Legend talaga si Sir Francis!! Napanood nyo ba ang eat bulaga kahapon? Grabe yung pag rap ni Gloc9. Naiyak ako, grabe! Grabe din talaga ang influence ni Kiko.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:32 PM
Francis M. unified hiphop and metal genre .. if not for him may gap pa din siguro ang dalawa.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:37 PM
When we heard that Francis died, we were really shocked. A few hours later, we asked eachother why we were so affected, though he’s not even related to us. The next day, we admitted to ourselves that we cried last night because he of his great influence over us.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:39 PM
May isang quote galing kay sir kiko: “Kung mahal mo ang musika, mahalin mo ang lahat ng nasasakupan nito.”v powerful.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:40 PM
Good evening. The master rapper is gone but his presence is still in our hearts.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:41 PM
Enkanto was the title of the movie of Francis M. where he played the role of Uban.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:43 PM
Sana mapatugtog yung LAB SONG tsaka MY OLD MAN.. I can’t find my Freeman and Happy Battle cassette tapes anymore.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:45 PM
If there is a Peter Pan in this world, si Francis M na yun. Simula nung Bagets days hanggang pagkikita ko sa kanya sa wakee. parang di tumanda. THE MAN FROM MANILA WILL BE THE HERO OF OUR COUNTRY.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:45 PM
Fonzy name nya sa Bagetz!
March 8th, 2009 at 11:50 PM
Marami ring FM at AM stations nag bigay tribute kay idol Francis. Trivia: na-recognize si Kiko sa hiphop en encyclopedia sa US as pioneer of rap in RP.
R.I.P. to Kiko. He’s in heaven now rapping to GOD. Kiko should be recognized as a national artist for music.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:55 PM
FRANCIS MAGALONA. You are the GREATEST RAPPER for us. Malaking kawalan ka sa larangan ng musika. Hayaan mong maiparating namin ang aming pakikiramay. May the spirit of Francis M rest in peace. We love you FRANCIS M.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:57 PM
The best mag-collaborate si Francis at Eraserheads. Naalala ko I have a picture with Francis M. nung naglaro ako sa eat bulaga..ang baet po nya.
March 8th, 2009 at 11:59 PM
Si Kiko ang father of rap metal. Labis akong nalungkot sa maagang pagyao ni idol Kiko.
March 9th, 2009 at 12:08 AM
Sana po i-play yung 1-800-ninety-six. Talagang makabayan tong song na to from 1896 Ang pagsilang.
Francis M you’re the man!
March 9th, 2009 at 12:09 AM
Si Francis M din po yung first ever VJ ng Pinas, from Channel V to MTV Phil.
March 9th, 2009 at 12:10 AM
Yung songs nya mana sa kanya. I mean kung sino-sino na yung mga kumanta pero hindi buma-baduy.
March 9th, 2009 at 12:12 AM
Ang sabi ni Joey de Leon sa interview, si Kiko lang daw ang nagshoshorts na naghohost sa Eat Bulaga, hanggang mabigyan sya ng memo.
