About this Song
Hip-hop practice across the Philippines has long served as a vessel for expression that meets the specific cultural, social, and political landscapes of the archipelago’s diverse island communities, weaving together shared local experiences with the global framework that defines the genre’s core identity. 25 (Still Alive) sits within this long lineage of Filipino hip-hop, a sound that exists as part of a dynamic, ever-expanding ecosystem of creators who contribute to the genre’s evolution both within the country’s borders and far beyond them, joining a steady stream of work that has cemented the Philippines’ reputation as a hub of bold, engaged hip-hop creation that resonates with audiences around the world.
