Gary Granada vs GMA Kapuso

"...this country is going to the dogs anyway."

This is a link to a recording of Gary Granada, a FIlipino singer-songwriter. He claims he has been cheated by GMA Kapuso, and he gives a solid argument to prove it. His composition has allegedly been taken advantage of, giving him not the due credit he deserves.

He has been in the industry for thirty years, and to abuse him so is to blatantly disregard the credibility of the industry.

I've always been positive about our country, that maybe someday we'll wake up and say, "Yeah, life is good. Maunlad na tayo." Right now, I don't really know what must be changed. The government. The policies. The people. Whatever. The whole system for all it's worth.

It is ironic that the jingle is about hope (however riddled with advertising its entirety may be), whilst the blood, sweat and experience of a hard-working Filipino is undermined.

Maybe the question should be, what kind of dog?
Seriously.

********
i'm pissed.
