Tony got a few details slightly off. "Alak, sugal, kape, babae, kabaong" by Radioactive Sago Project actually translates to "booze, gambling, coffee, women, coffin." Regardless, I really appreciate you featuring these incredible bands! It's wonderful to see these artists gaining recognition beyond our home shores.
