By CHERRY SUN

Celebrities honor Francis M today, October 4, the Master Rapper’s 51st birthday.

Francis M’s family celebrates his day by paying him a visit at the Loyola Memorial Park.







“Family is forever. FrancisM is forever,” Maxene said on her Instagram account.

Joey de Leon shared a photo of a gift he received from Francis M. He wrote, “Master Croaker – This was a painting given to me by the birthday boy today, Francis M.! Happy Birthday, Dabarkads!”



Producer-writer and son of the Henyo Master Jako de Leon commemorates him by sharing, “Kiko brought unmatached energy to the show. He loved the show and showed more passion than anyone. Francis M pa forever!”



Ruby Rodriguez also greeted, “Our dabarkads who coined the word itself, Happy Birthday Francis M.”



Janno Gibbs shared a throwback photo of them sharing a light moment from the movie Tong Its.



Parokya ni Edgar front man Chito Miranda had a lot to reminisce about the Man from Manila he used to collaborate with.



He began, “Kilala siya ng karamihan bilang makabayan na Master Rapper. Kilala siya ng marami bilang artista at host. Kilala ko siya bilang mayabang at maangas na kuya na isip bata na sobrang mapagmahal sa pamilya.”

“Kilala ko siya bilang kaibigan. Pero higit sa lahat, kilala natin sya bilang inspirasyon. Happy Bday Kiko,” Chito concluded.

Eat Bulaga held a week-long contest in the segment ‘Bulaga Pa More, Francis M Pa More’ to celebrate the memory and legacy of their Dabarkad.
