Thematically, ‘K&B III’ heavily features messages of hope as the two rappers tackle the topic of resilience in the face of the ongoing pandemic. “Sandata ko ay music / Binitawan ko na ang baril path ang lubid / Di tinablan COVID”, raps CLR, who proclaims “COVID got nothing on me”.

‘K&B III’ marks the latest collaboration between Omar Baliw, CLR and producer 8Beats. The three musicians most recently worked together for eight songs on 8Beats’ debut album ‘Och8mil’, which released in May.

The newly released song is the third track in Omar Baliw’s and CLR’s ‘K&B’ series, which kicked off in 2019. Last year, the pair released ‘K&B II’.

Omar Baliw released three studio albums last year: ‘Omar Baliw PO’, ‘OBP 2’ and ‘OBP 3’. In January, the rapper teamed up with 1096 Gang to release a music video for their ‘OBP 3’ track ‘Inumaga’.
