BLAH BLAH BLOGS BER EDITION: Happy Birthday Francis Magalona

Being a follower of the Master Rapper its great to meet his family which I see is a very happy one though sad since he left the world at his age. I have loved his song, though I am not really into rap, but I was deeply moved with his words of wisdom and actions that moved me and challenged me to be a better Filipino.
