About this Song
Kung Siya Man, the work from TJ Monterde, emerges from the rich, interconnected creative communities of the Philippines, where artists regularly blend and reimagine forms to create work that speaks to both personal and collective contexts that resist one-size-fits-all labeling. The sound’s classification as a cross of uncategorized creative work, marked by its triple listing of “other” across standard genre metrics, reflects a longstanding thread among artists working from the region who prioritize narrative and creative flexibility over the constraints of industry-standard categorization, which often forces work into narrow boxes that fail to capture the full scope of what an artist has built. Monterde’s practice exists within a lineage of Philippine creators who push against the limits of what mainstream industry frameworks expect from recorded sound, choosing instead to let their work exist outside those lines rather than contort it to fit categories that don’t align with their core creative intent.
