‘Bonethugs’ sees Filipino rap titan Gloc-9 teaming up with underground lyricist Abaddon to deliver a raw, heartfelt take on love’s messier moments.
This isn’t your usual slow-jam or sugar-coated serenade — ‘Bonethugs’ is for those who’ve been through the fights, the cold shoulders, and the tough conversations that come with real relationships. Blending candid lyricism with Pinoy hip-hop swagger, Gloc-9 and Abaddon take turns voicing the frustrations and vulnerability of holding onto love when things get rough.
"Kahit ang sahod ay sa akinse pa... ako’y kakampi mo, pinapangako ko," Gloc-9 raps — a bar that hits hard for anyone who's ever tried to prove love with actions, not just words.
Sonically, the track leans into mellow trap production with an emotional pull, echoing the back-and-forth tension of the lyrics. With both rappers offering contrasting perspectives, ‘Bonethugs’ plays out like a lyrical couple’s therapy session — part plea, part promise.
