“No matter how high, no matter how tall...” Breaking down the Barriers that keep us captive.
An ode to the past generations of Filipinos/Filipino-Americans, and a call to continue their legacy for years to come. Our strength came from their fortitude, our will to survive from their labor, and our freedom derived from their sacrifices.

BALISONG MUSIK (feat. Aaliyah Bancod) - “BARRIERS” Official Release Date: June 26, 2020 Listen: Soundcloud Genre: Hip-Hop Instagram / Facebook / YouTube About: Balisong Musik is a music project with a focus on creating songs that blur the lines between the usual definitions and genre stigmas. They approach rap music with a one-of-a-kind feel, and their most recent single, aptly titled “Barriers,” is a perfect example of their artistry. 
The song kicks off with a soothing, melodic introduction, with mellow piano chords and ambient sounds blended in with lush female vocals. The rap flow kickstarts the verse soon after, going for a melodic, yet energetic feel that tips the hat off to artists like Mac Miller, Fort Minor, Logic, J. Cole, and others. If you like hip-hop with some sung parts and a bit of extra melody, this one is definitely going to be right up your alley. The release features astonishing production aesthetics and it has a larger-than-life feel with some great vibes and unique compositional dynamics. The music feels modern and cut-through, going for a world-class vibe that will undoubtedly please even the most demanding hip-hop fans out there. The song also features a touching narrative, exploring the story of an immigrant, who had to go through so many struggles, obstacles and hardships, just to provide a better future for his family. Leaving your home and everything you know to find luck in a foreign land is not easy, and being an immigrant is a very brave thing: sacrificing yourself, for the benefit of your loved ones and for a better future. This song is particularly strong as a dedication to the parents of the artists involved in the song, and it also features their own native language, Tagalog & Ilocano, as an even more personal and heartfelt tribute to their
parents, who took a bit leap of faith and made such a big change in their lives. Find out more about Balisong Musik, and do not miss out on “Barriers,” which will be available on June 12, 2020.
