MUNI-MUNI STORIES:
A Podcast on Filipino Music
Episode 2: Francis Magalona | Mga Kababayan
with Pia Magalona and Saab Magalona-Bacarro

In this episode, we get the chance to chat with Pia Magalona and Saab Magalona-Bacarro, wife and daughter respectively of the late “Master Rapper” Francis Magalona, popularly known as Francis M. We dwell on his legacy, imagine him in a podcast, and think about Filipinized rap music. Unpacking the nuances of his song Mga Kababayan, we relive it for this generation, one deprived of seeing him perform live. Why should the youth still listen to the words and bars of their padre de pamilya?
