Gloc-9 dares to tell a different story of love

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - A new love song is about to hit original Pinoy music lovers between the eyes. Yes it is what you do not expect.

Gloc-9’s “Hindi Mo Nadinig” is a haunting story of love and desire, where a male persona puts his woman on a pedestal, and dreams of living happily ever after. But the unraveling of a dream fulfilled is one that can only be painful. Gloc-9 takes it a step further and renders it horrifying.

The persona loses control, and yet the song renders it seemingly calculated: what happens is told chronologically, what is done is listed down. The tone of Gloc-9’s rap is removed, distant. It almost sounds matter-of-fact. It is in these things that the haunting is heightened.

Layer that with the eeriness of a melody that sounds melodramatic on the one hand, totally sad and pained on the other, and you can almost feel that knife through your heart.  Sung by Jay Durias, the chorus is not so much repetition as it is made to seem like a mantra, like a plea, spoken over and over by the desperate.

“Hindi Mo Nadinig” is a gun to your temple. It is a lot like love. Gloc-9 is the only rapper who tells this tale, and renders it all a matter of life. And death.

Listen up: it’s what you don’t want to hear. It’s all you will ever want to listen to.

“Hindi Mo Nadinig” is the third single from Gloc-9’s Mga Kwento ng Makata Album under Universal Records. It is written by Gloc-9, arranged by Jay Durias, performed by Gloc-9 and Jay Durias. The music video features Kean Cipriano, Edgar Allan Guzman and Sarah Abad-Contreras.
