About this Song
Across the Philippines’ evolving network of independent and community-focused music spaces, sounds that resist easy categorization carve out unique space to connect with audiences that seek work that pushes against the boundaries of established genre conventions. C2 Boyz, the sound crafted by Hev Abi, emerges from this landscape, tied to the broader creative framework of Urban Department, a collection of work that centers the textures and perspectives of urban Filipino life while refusing to be boxed into any single pre-existing musical classification. The genre designation of Music/Other/Other reflects this intentional resistance to categorization, a choice that rejects the pressure to fit work into narrow streaming algorithms or radio formatting that would force its unique identity to be stripped down to fit pre-existing tropes of what Filipino music can or should be.
