Paalam, Kiko

I am a confessed fan.. HS pa lang ako..he as a dancer, until later, when he started to rap..I learned to appreciate rap and hip-hop through him..pati pantalon ko dati, pina-jazzed up ko with his image and name painted on it..pag nag-sign ako ng name ko dati "cyrilm" ginaya sa FrancisM nya..up to now, I still enjoy listening to his music..

gusto ko ang pagsusulat nya, ang message ng mga rap nya...I find it extra cool din how he collaborated with other artists I liked, gaya nina Joey Ayala, Parokya at E-heads..
and how he bridged the gap between rap music and patriotism..he brought nationalism to the youth via his music..he instilled the idea its cool to be Pinoy.

Isa syang malaking kawalan sa industry ng musikang Pinoy..pero sabi nga, kahit wala na sya, his music and idealism will live on..
