Francis Durango Magalona, one of my admired rapper in the 80′s, where I listened to his music all over again everyday with a cassette tape and a Sony Mini Cassette Player.
A music artist at heart has been repored “dead” just now March 6, 2009 lunch time.
I don’t know the exact details, but it’s just so ironic. He was reported to have acquired Leukemia, at the Medical City in Mandaluyong City on Friday where he passed away. He was 44.

It’s so sad. I feel for his wife and children
Hope they get better in God’s time. May this serve as a lesson for everyone to treasure the time we have now and to NEVER take our loved ones for granted. Naks… ang drama ko. Thanks nga pala for visiting my blogs
bilib lang talaga ako sa fighting spirit ni kiko. hindi siya nawalan ng pag-asa. siya yung best example na kahit kaya pang ibigay ang pwede mong maibahagi sa mga tao, ibigay mo ng walang labis at walang kulang. hindi naging sagabal sa kanya ang kanyang sakit, naging instrumento pa ito para ipakita at ipadama sa lahat na maganda pa rin ang buhay. hindi ito dapat sayangin hanggang sa huling hininga. dahil ‘dun, hindi lang siya dapat tingalain as a great artist but the best example of being a great person that truly inspires us to be courageous whatever battles our life are facing.
