After 16 years, rock band Dicta License has released their sophomore album Pagbigkas – a meticulously-produced work that exemplifies the evolution of both their sound and their viewpoints.
Filled with incisive commentary on the state of our nation, Pagbigkas brings Dicta License’s messages to life with a combination of elements – from big band instrumentation, to spoken word, to chants, and of course, the band’s signature rap/rock style.
Out of 10 tracks, the band’s members Pochoy Labog, Kelley Mangahas, and Boogie Romero and their producer Jorel Corpus select 4 and deep dive into each track in this first-ever “listening party” on Rappler Talk Entertainment.
The band’s members share the decisions and compromises they had to make to put together each song, while Pochoy talks about the various stories and moments that inspired his lyrics. In between, they also talked about how their songwriting process has changed in the pandemic, and why they continue to speak out politically, even after all these years.
The interview was streamed live on Rappler’s official Kumu channel (@rapplerdotcom) on April 13. – Rappler.com
