So we start June off with FenaxiZ's White Man's Burden ft Joshua
Lopez (Jlatte). FenaxiZ has been putting in mad work releasing at least a video a month since Jan 2012 all leading up to the release of his full length release titled "Vintage". Not only has he been pushing himself but also doing work within his group Team Us which will also be releasing a project in the later part of the year; keep an eye out. Big thanks to Joshua Lopez for his work on the guitar track and to Minerva Group with the great work on the vid. Below is the official write up followed by all necessary links for those involved.
"Every June 12, Filipinos across the globe commemorate their
homeland’s declaration of independence from Spanish occupation in 1898.
Amidst the lumpia, tinikling dances, and street parades, FenaxiZ humbly entreats his kasamas worldwide to pause for a moment of
reflection and acknowledge a past mired with bloodshed, subjugation, and
resistance.
Borrowing its title from the Rudyard Kipling poem about the
Filipino-American war, “White Man’s Burden” is a critical analysis of
the widespread effects that imperialism has wreaked upon a 7000-island
archipelago once known as “The Pearl Of The Orient.” From a Labour
Export Policy that seperates parents from children to the internalized
racism that fuels identity issues of the youth, FenaxiZ covers many
pressing issues that today’s Filipinos face; yet, he is also aware of
the incomplete picture he paints as he muses, “and this rap ain’t even
scratching the surface of our collective experience.”
The song was produced by The Quarter Inch Kings and features Joshua
“JLatte” Lopez on guitar. The video was directed and edited by Minerva Group. More info about the video’s inspiration after the jump… along with the video itself, of course!"
