quick tag before sleeping

Nujabes (born Jun Seba), a Japanese hip-hop producer, was killed in a car accident in Tokyo. Nujabes crashed when leaving the Metropolitan Expressway in Tokyo's Minato Ward. Nujabes was 36 years old when he died. The car crash that killed Nujabes took place on February 26, 2010, the same day a magnitude 7.3 earthquake struck off the coast of Japan. Nujabes' death was only publicly confirmed by Hydeout Productions and by his friend and collaborator, Shing02, today; he was buried by his family in a private ceremony. Nujabes was the founder of Hydeout Productions, as well as the owner of two Tokyo record stores, Guinness Records and T Records. Nujabes (who came by his artistic name by spelling his real name backwards) also contributed music to the anime "Samurai Champloo", an anachronistic tale mixing samurai lore and modern hip-hop culture. Nujabes was a private person, and so many, even those who worked closely with him, did not know he had died. - from dj premieres blog

i ran into some of his beats on youtube a year ago, and fell in love with his jazzy soulful beats as soon as i heard them. i searched his name and eventually got download links to most of his works. i understand that a lot of his other stuff are only released on vinyl, how i would love to get to listen to those. i used one of his instrumentals entitled "another reflection" and wrote my song "latak" to it. you can listen and watch the video which i already posted earlier on this blog.

let me share another one of my favorite instrumental of his, this one is called modal soul.



R.I.P

Letter to Kiko

We take the time out to remember a KING.
remember the man, his music and the legacy he left.

we wrote this song last year, im just gonna post the lyrics up. no need for a long write up.
we will carry on with the music.

1st verse
this is dedicated to that man from manila
respected by g's thugs and the killas
an tumukdaw nga tulay para an hiphop mag-urusa
imo't trono ngan korona, waray puydi my kumuha
i promise to defend the three stars and a sun
ikaw an nagtikang, i am one of your many sons
you're the main reason why rappers are proud citizens
dinhi ha pilipinas kilala ka't tanan
tungod hit eat bulaga, mga salida mo ngan,
photos ha flicker, you put out your very own brand
you broadened the horizon of every rapper out here
a lot will miss you including me, im sincere
and since were still here and we can do more
we'll live life to the fullest, keepin no scores
hakuna matata, keep it worry free man
see the world colorful, kaliedoscope vision
you've always done on a positive note
emphasized on being real, words that i'll qoute
the legacy you left, legendary name will endure
rest in peace sir, paradise is yours

2nd verse
dear kiko if u can hear meup there,
i gotta know,may ada ba dida beer?
waray kita magkita,di mo ako kilala
pero pagtext ni exo tumuro'n akon luha.
Sayang waray ka na,it mga buutan gudman it nauuna
pundasyo ko ha mulay upod tim musika
May hip-hop sa Pinas dahil nanguna ka.
Syahan na kanta'n amon grupo, Hala Padara
Hango yan sa kanta mong Nilamon ng Sistema
I performed Peace On Earth on a different beat
Back in R.I.P (rappers in progress) Days it got me 2nd place feat
Ha-ha You proved them wrong
Radio played you bisan dire NOVELTY tim song
Love and Peace an imo tut-do dire bang-bang
You proved pwede maging Hip-Hop bisan dire bulig hin gang.
YeZzurR, Hats off to you!
I ignored your haters that's what i learned from you
No bye's 'coz your legacy will live forever
Pinoy In Peace Francis M. the freeman from Manila!

3rd verse
naibanan hin tukod it hiphop dinhi
pero tim impluwensya nakatatak pirme
it pilipino bisan pa't ibatak bis diin
my balon nga hinumduman ni francis m.
don't you worry coz you left hiphop in good hands
it won't stop, it steady rocks with my klan
di mawawara an mensahe mo tikang pa'n una
ipapasa namon an usa nga paghigugma

Tungod ha imo Kiko naging "Pambihira ang Pinoy"
Taas noong binibigkas na "Tayo'y Mga Pinoy"
Nagbibilin hin gamay kun naabot na it kwarta
kay kun "Ubos Biyaya Bukas Nakatunga-nga"
Di kami mangangalimot han imo "Cold Summer Nights", 3 Stars and a Sun", "Love for Life" "Girl Be Mine"
Ikaw,ako,ngan hi Rizal papreho'n gintutu-uran na ang ating "Kabataan ay Para sa Kinabukasan"
Han nakadto ha kasisidman an Hip-Hop, ikaw'n Suga
An pader han Hip-Hop ngan rakista, ikaw an nag guba
Ngan kun hain ka man yana ayaw na kabaraka Kuya,
Hasta buhi pa ako it Hip-Hop mag-aaringasa. . .

GRAFFITI WILL NEVER DIE!

LATAK

this is the last song i recorded before i released dat 053 boy mixtape. this song sealed it. i recorded the song at da'franchize's studio.. and franchize took out his digicam and took a few vid clips while i was recording. we decided to compile a few clips and release the video 1st before the mixtape dropped as a teaser.

this song takes a reflective mood, me wondering where did all the hiphop heads go, because tacloban hiphop has been really quiet for awhile. radio hasnt been really been friendly with the genre over here, and most of the new dudes are just aiming at getting a hit played on radio.

enjoy the vid.

this song is included in dat 053 boy mixtape, download @ http://www.sendspace.com/file/cfhklx

AN PAG-GIOS MIXTAPE

AN PAG-GIOS MIXTAPE!

what can i say.. this is the 1st mixtape put out by the klan. it is a compilation of tracks recorded by the members of the klan individually and as a group from 2004-till 2009. tracks are in waray and english, showcasing our mastery of both.

this release gave us our 1st taste of producing a cd, from planning to putting up the money to get things done. we are grateful to a number of people who really helped out and we did not forget to shout them out at the outro.

the track that stands out is track #6 Summer Fun, we made the song during summer so it was released when summer was about to end. it started out with us playing with a few electronica inspired hiphop beats. we just had fun with the track. ma summer nmn, so i hope this track gets in your playlists. paysh! - yungkeezy

members of the kingkoys klan are:

rappers:
hector tupaz aka kingkoy aka kid intellect
kim david obejas aka deadkey aka lil itchy
angelo martie sudario aka angelo da lazykid

The 1st Entry

welcome visitor!

i finally got a little free time to create a blog. i have been planning to put one up since we (me and my klan, kingkoys klan) were planning to release our compilation mixtape last year 2009. we felt the need to document everything we were doing just for the heck of it. we thought, it would be kool to browse pictures and articles of our movement as we get older and god forbid, "grow too old" for this hiphop shit.



im gonna be posting all the notable events that happened to me/us last year. Im gonna be posting download links to our previously released mixtapes along with a few videos of what we did last year. im gonna include a few other kool stuff besides music, including the ever growing tacloban street art scene, graffiti, art events, im even including some skateboard and mtb, bmx stuff on. basically, im gonna be posting any and everything i wanna share with the world here.


let me tell you my dear visitor, that i have no clue at all on how to make this site look better, but i promise im gonna work on it.. yeayup!
im gonna try to put in a few updates once in a while, and im hoping to get busy this year. so check the site often..



waray waray worldwide!
