The hounds

 When one speaks out against the one you love, I am sure that minutes after clicking the post button, many will share their own sentiments good or bad.

We all know how social media works. How toxic the discussions are, insults throwing around and of course too many fake news. 

That is why I wouldn’t be surprised why famous artist and celebrities can’t take a stand.   Now with the current election happening in May... whew! Grabe ang toxic talaga... That’s also why I respect how brave some personalities in voicing out against Duterte and Marcos. Lalo na musicians because as all you may know, the common comment of trolls when they speak up is, “Mag banda ka na lang” or “tumugtog ka na lang”. Which of course makes no sense since they are still Filipinos who pay taxes and have the right to voice out opinions.

I just saw this video. Biro mo Ely Buendia made it to the trolling world of bloggers hahaha. Proud of you man! Anyway, if you will watch this video, this is actually sums up how the trolls react when a musician speaks up. Of course, makanti mo lang ang Poon nilang si Digs, they will post video right away dissing them.

The song in question is “Metro”, a song that serves to educate the voters and telling to vote wisely. Of course, the DDS world will not keep quiet about this. They are triggered with this excellent line “Pangulo ba o Pang gulo”

Bulag sila sa mga pahirap
Na iyong nararanasan
Di nila naiintindihan
At may mga nagbibingi-bingihan
Sa mga kasinungalingan
Di kaya sila ay bayaran?

Kamatayan at sakit
Kalayaan ay nagigipit
Lupa at dagat natin ay pinagsasanla

Kapatid di pa ba nagsasawa?
Tumatakbo ang metro
Wag ka ngang muling magpapalinlang
Sa pangakong pinako

Mga abuso sa kapangyarihan
At maling pamamalakad
Ang sagabal sa kaunlaran
Walang pinuno ang hindi marunong
Lutasin ang mga problema
Ito'y panata nila sa bayan

Simulant ang pagbabago
Sa isang pinuno
Na may pagmamalasakit
At paninindigan

Panahon na upang imulat
Ang mata sa katotohanan
Pandemya at kawalan ng kabuhayan
Asan na ang nawawalang lupa't pera
Bagsak ang ekonomiya
Di ka ba nagtataka?
Pinunong may talino, puso at tapang
Ito ang kailangan ng ating bayan

Kapatid di pa ba nagsasawa?
Tumatakbo ang metro
Isa lang ang iyong pagpipilian
Pangulo ba o pang gulo?
Pangulo ba o pang gulo?

Pangulo ba o pang gulo?
Pangulo ba o pang gulo?
Pangulo ba o pang gulo?
Pangulo ba o pang gulo?

So to answer you Mr. DDS/ now Yorme enabler, the answer to our problem is removing your tatay and replace him with a Pangulo and not a Pang gulo. 

Anyway here is the updated version of “Metro” for VP Leni and Sen. Kiko.

As of this writing, Ely is now making news again because of his tweet:

Note the haha react

 And trolls are so alive, they are like hounds searching for someone to attack:

Try harder blengblong supporters

To the trolls, Ely Buendia is a legend and been through so much hate lalo na when the band disbanded so you “Laos ka na” or  “high lang yan” comments won’t give anything to him. Try harder please. 

To Ely, thank God you are using your influence and platform to ask questions that will tickle one's mind.  He can just sit there comfortably from his ivory tower, but no, he went down and join the people. To others this may not be much but for now, we need little things to make big difference.

Edited: Just in, may bagong tweet si Ely, sobrang fiery at higit sa lahat Tagalog haha. Sabi nga nila bardahan na ito. pero ito talaga din kailangan natin, harsh words para magising kahit papaano ang mga nagtutulog tulugan pa rin.
