Franchizze & Lyrical Abstrakt (also known as the Filipino Hip hop rap duo 'Dos Armados')
Born and raised in Manila, Philippines, Franchizze (Francis Fabie) and Lyrical Abstrakt (Michael Yambao) came together to form a group that would represent the real Filipino Hip hop culture in Canada. The name Dos Armados mirrors the raw and unique rap style of both artists. Through music and content of their lyrics, they aim to educate, inspire, acknowledge and represent for the struggles of the Filipino community in Canada. Franchizze and Lyrical Abstrakt are currently working on their ?South East Cartel? mixtape. This mixtape will certainly get everybody to recognize the talent that Filipinos have in making unique and genuine hip hop music. Franchizze and Abstrakt and the whole South East Cartel movement --- some real artists you can't sleep on..
