Out with another meaningful song about all things Pinoy is Warner Music Philippines’ Dilaw.
The Baguio-based duo, composed of vocalist and chief lyricist Dilaw Obero and guitarist/instrumentalist Vie Dela Rosa, just dropped their latest single “Kaloy.”
Equal parts hypnotic and maddening, the single boldly incorporates various musical styles to fearlessly deliver yet-another fierce and almost humorous take on the trials and tribulation of the common Pinoy folk.
Obero explains, “’Kaloy’ is a song that talks about people… regular people in our society, and the roles they play and their purpose – no matter how big or small – and how it all affects the bigger picture.”
Dela Rosa adds, “We want to send a message to every single citizen of the country to embrace the greater good, stand firm and believe in each other.”
Dilaw began in 2019 with Obero, a rapper, joining forces with multi-instrumentalist Dela Rosa.
Their debut, “3019,” was hailed by fans and critics and for good reason.
It was a catchy yet scathing ditty that came at a time when it was most-needed, with the country facing the most intense societal turmoil brought-about by injustice and corruption.
“Kaloy” is now available on all digital music and streaming platforms.
