HIP-HOP artist JRLDM, or Jerald Mallari, releases “Lason," his first single under Music Colony Records (MCR) and distributed by Warner Music Philippines (WMP) on October 15.
The budding music artist is known for the realism his songs convey. Through his craft as a singer and songwriter, JRLDM draws listeners to his world with dark, brooding, memorable, and haunting hooks.
JRLDM's songs could be compared to abstract paintings that stimulate the senses as they are created as anthems for a misunderstood generation as expressed in his honest lyrics that are on-point, relatable, and packed with heat and passion with every delivery whenever he performs.
“Lason," was written, composed, arranged by JRLDM and co-produced with Ryan M. Armamento, depicts a dark yet captivating narrative as it is centered on his unique take on trying to talk about his struggles and the poison that is seen in society coupled with questions on existence.
JRLDM talks about his daily struggles and what he goes through mentally to maintain a positive outlook. Lines in the song like “Nais ko sanang tumawa, pero bakit ba parang 'di kaya” are written to make listeners think of the struggles they once went through and how they overcame it and succeeded.
JRLDM's songs are soundtracks from the heart and stories from the streets and "Lason" kicks off the build-up of several releases that will culminate in the release of his debut album under MCR. It is a much-anticipated track for the unique underground artist.
