About This Album
Rooted in the local creative ecosystems that shape Philippine hip-hop, the album KATSEYE exists as a distinct entry in the lineage of regional hip-hop work that emerges from creative hubs across the country’s archipelagic landscape. As a regional music note, this project centers the specific context of Philippine hip-hop’s established stylistic space, framing every core choice tied to the album within the realities of the creative landscape that defines its core identity, never pulling the work away from the geographic and stylistic space that grounds it. The title KATSEYE anchors the album to the local context that informs all its creative priorities, rather than positioning it as a detached work disconnected from the regional traditions and stylistic contours that shape Philippine hip-hop as a whole.
