Classmate

by Hambog ng Sagpro Krew ft. Winhope

From something so culturally and historically rich to something that's just culturally interesting and uh... very 2010. This song comes from a very specific subculture that I'll explain a bit later down below but understand that as a child I listened to this ironically but I definitely know that most people didn't I think. Either way, it's still a pretty nostalgic song today for most people, me included.

Classmate

Yeah, this is my song, for you, classmate

(Hold on, you're studying?) Yeah (Dumbass, what's your degree?) Astronaut (Why astronaut?) I'm going to the sun (The sun? It's hot there, ah) Idiot, well then, I'll go there at night Hold on, hold on, I still have to make a song, eh Okay, game, Hambog ng Sagpro Krew, hehe

At the very first day, I've already loved you, ah Why is this how I'm feeling It's not like I've known you very well Eh, whatever? As long as I love you

On the first day of school, I was at school My uniform's cool, maybe I'll cause a scene Of course, there's now new chicks who enrolled But some of 'em, look like they're for Shake, Rattle and Roll[1], oh But there's one who catches my attention A woman who was eating alone in the canteen Then I became ecstatic and even happier When I learned that my crush, turned out to be my classmate, haha

Now I'm going to try to make a move Don't care if she'll be sassy or snobby As long as I get to say my smooth line "In the exam of my heart, did you know that you passed?" But hold on, your name, I still don't know "Hey, mister, quiet down*", shut up, Ma'am[2] Anyway, I still don't know your holy name But can I, just call you "love"?

At the very first day, I've already loved you, ah Why is this how I'm feeling It's not like I've known you very well Eh, whatever? As long as I love you

Second subject, we're there by the lab I'm not listening, I'm just staring at love Yeah, I really love you now, L-O-V-E I can't feel tired even if we do P.E. If the topic's P.C.[3], this ain't easy That's why you're busy, but I'm gonna still squeeze into Your time even if you get annoyed Because you're the one that gets my heart full during recess

If my heart would be a school, you would be the principal Because it only follows what it loves I'm better than the top student when I see you You're the solution to the math problem Multiplied by trust and love equals forever And there's nothing that could divide the two of us Because in the history book[4], we've been assigned

At the very first day, I've already loved you, ah Why is this how I'm feeling It's not like I've known you very well Eh, whatever? As long as I love you

I keep refusing my squad whenever they say "Let's cut classes" Because my mission when I go to school, for us to be together They'll just ask me out to billiards nearby Why would I go with them when next to me is heaven? Isn't my reasoning right? In school, that's the only place I get to be next to you If you're my seatmate, I don't want to be absent I wish we could just stay here and never go home

Damn, have I gone crazy? Oh, no, shit[5] In my homework, quiz, and exam, your name is the answer I'm always looking for your essence and presence Because you complete the nonsense sentence That's why I won't be absent, you're the angel God sent Is my accent okay? Of course, always present I never go missing at school, always landing[6] Because you are the reason why I work hard

At the very first day, I've already loved you, ah Why is this how I'm feeling It's not like I've known you very well Eh, whatever? As long as I love you

You're different from the rest, you can say a different class And thank you because you became my classmate And now you're the subject in this rap of mine If I never met you, I'd likely drop out Because I'm a lazy lad sick of school But you're a student there that's why it's not useless I made a project, a poem to be read It's not for Ma'am, I'm submitting it to you

I hope I would pass for you I hope you review too because I'm expecting you And with loving you, I didn't study for that Because I naturally and quickly felt it My beloved classmate, I hope you would think That your sweet "yes"I would treat as my diploma And before you get separated from me during summer break The school year that you're with me in my heart, it would leave a mark

At the very first day, I've already loved you, ah Why is this how I'm feeling It's not like I've known you very well Eh, whatever? As long as I love you

You gave me joy That's why I want, you to always be there I hope that even when we're apart (classmate) You would remember me (because)

At the very first day, I've already loved you, ah Why is this how I'm feeling It's not like I've known you very well Eh, whatever? As long as I love you

Alternative Translations and Additional Context

Shake, Rattle, and Roll is a horror anthology series that used to premier near-yearly as a movie that has three short films within it (Liwag, 2021). The movie series has been around since 1984 and, as of 2024, has 16 total movies with a total of 48 short films (Aguja, 2023). In this lyric, the rapper is likening his female classmates with the monsters and ghouls in the film series.

Female teachers in the Philippines are most likely to be called "Ma'am" while male teachers are often called "Sir".

I believe P.C. in this context means "personal computer" so he's referring to computer class because I doubt that he was referring to "political correctness" especially since that's not a term used in the Philippines when talking about politics.

The word he uses is "sibika" which more literally translates to "civics" but this specifically refers to the history part of Civics and Culture class. He's most likely refering to how the two of them had been assigned by history or fate.

The word that he actually uses here is "lagot" which most accurately means "I'm in trouble." but simply saying shit has the same energy to it.

He says "lumalapag" which means landing although I don't know what the hell he means by this.

Random Trivia

This song was created as part of the Philippine hipster subculture known as "Jejemon", a portmanteau of the word "jeje" which is a way to type in laughter in text and "pokemon", which was popular during the late 2000s to the early 2010s.

The Jejemon subculture, with its members being called as "Jejemons" or simply "Jejes", started from a specific type of texting language that had stemmed from older text service providers where each text would cost a fee. This caused people, and specifically younger individuals, to create texting shortcuts to avoid paying unnecessary fees (Lim, 2010). This texting lingo evolved to a later texting style that went from "r u gud" to something like "4rH3 yOUh 6()ODd?" (Jejenator, n.d.). Besides the texting style, which some people may refer to as "Jejenese", people who participated in this subculture had their own fashion, slang, and music (Marcoleta, 2010).

Hambog ng Sagpro Krew is one of the most well-known musicsians to be part of this subculture with their songs such as "Classmate" and "Facebook" being some of ttheir most popular ones in this specific genre. Although not having an official release in an album and only being mainly known from music videos and audio from YouTube, these two songs were later included in their 2022 album "2011 Jejemon".

Original Lyrics

Yeah, kanta ko 'to, para sa 'yo, classmate

(Teka, nagaaral ka ba?) Oo (Ulol, ano'ng course mo?) Astronaut (Ba't astronaut?) Pupunta ako sa araw (Sa araw? Mainit do'n, ah) Gago, eh 'di, gabi ako pupunta ro'n Teka, teka, may gagawin pa 'kong kanta, eh Okay, game, Hambog ng Sagpro Krew, hehe

Unang araw pa lang, minahal na kita, ah Bakit ba ganito ang aking nadama? 'Di man kita lubusan pang kilala Eh, ano naman? Basta mahal kita

Unang araw sa school, ako'y nasa eskuwelahan Yuniporme ay cool, baka may maeksenahan Siyempre, mayro'ng bagong chicks ngayon nag-enroll Kaso 'yung iba, mukhang pang-Shake, Rattle and Roll, oh Pero iisa ang agaw-pansin Isang babaeng kumakain mag-isa sa canteen Tapos lalo pa 'kong natuwa at lalong sumaya No'ng nalaman ko ang crush ko, classmate ko pala, haha

Ngayon nga madiskartehan Wala akong paki kung magtaray o mag-inarte 'yan Basta gusto ko lang sabihin salitang nakakasado "Sa exam ng puso ko, alam mo ba ika'y pasado?" Pero teka lang, pangalan mo, 'di ko pa alam "Hoy, mister, 'wag kang maingay", tumahimik ka, Ma'am Anyway, 'di ko pa rin alam pangalan mong banal Pero puwede ba, tawag ko na lang sa 'yo "Mahal"?

Unang araw pa lang, minahal na kita, ah Bakit ba ganito ang aking nadama? 'Di man kita lubusan pang kilala Eh, ano naman? Basta mahal kita

Second subject, ando'n kami sa may lab Hindi ako nakikinig, titig ako kay my love Oo, love na nga kita, L-O-V-E 'Di ko dama ang pagod ko kahit na mag-P.E. 'Pag topic ay P.C., ito'y hindi easy Kaya ika'y busy, pero ako'y sisingit Pa rin sa oras mo kahit ikaw ay mainis Kasi ikaw bumubusog sa puso ko kapag recess

Kung eskuwelahan ang puso ko, ikaw ang principal Dahil sinusunod lamang nito kaniyang minamahal Daig ko pa ang first honor kapag nakita kita Ikaw solution sa problem sa matematika Ng buhay ko, kasi ikaw plus ako equals for better Multiplied by tiwala at love equals forever At wala nang puwedeng mag-divide sa ating dalawa Kasi sa aklat ng sibika, tayo'y nakatalaga

Unang araw pa lang, minahal na kita, ah Bakit ba ganito ang aking nadama? 'Di man kita lubusan pang kilala Eh, ano naman? Basta mahal kita

Tumatanggi ako sa tropa 'pag sinabing "Cutting tayo" Kasi misyon ko sa 'king pagpasok, maging tayo Yayayain lang nila 'ko sa bilyarang kalapitan Bakit pa 'ko do'n sasama kung sa 'yong tabi, kalangitan? 'Di ba tama aking katuwiran? Sa eskuwelahan, do'n lang kita natatabihan Kapag ikaw ang seatmate ko, ayoko nang lumisan Sana dito na lang tayo at walang uwian

Damn, baliw na ba 'ko? Hay, naku, lagot Sa 'king assignment, quiz, at exam, pangalan mo sagot Lagi kong hinahanap ang 'yong essence at presence Kasi kinukumpleto mo ang nonsense na sentence Kaya 'di na a-absent, you're the angel God sent Ayos ba ang accent? Siyempre laging present 'Di nawawala sa school, laging lumalapag Kasi ikaw ang dahilan kung ba't ako nagsisipag

Unang araw pa lang, minahal na kita, ah Bakit ba ganito ang aking nadama? 'Di man kita lubusan pang kilala Eh, ano naman? Basta mahal kita

Ika'y iba sa lahat, masasabing ibang klase At salamat sapagkat ika'y aking naging kaklase At ikaw ngayon ang subject dito sa aking rap Kung hindi ka nakilala, malamang ako'y na-drop Kasi tamad akong binatang sawa sa 'skuwelahan Ngunit ikaw ay estudyante do'n kaya may kuwenta 'yan Gumawa ako ng project, tulang ipapabasa 'Di ito para kay Ma'am, sa 'yo ko 'to 'papasa

Sana pumasa ako sa 'yo Sana mag-review ka rin na umaasa 'ko sa 'yo At ang mahalin kita, hindi ko 'yon pinag-aralan Dahil nadama ko 'yon nang kusa at agad-agaran Classmate kong mahal, sana maisip mo na Matamis mong "oo" ang 'tuturing kong diploma At bago ka mawalay sa 'kin sa bakasyon School year na kasama ka sa puso ko, babakas 'yon

Unang araw pa lang, minahal na kita, ah Bakit ba ganito ang aking nadama? 'Di man kita lubusan pang kilala Eh, ano naman? Basta mahal kita

nagbigay ng kaligayahan Kaya ang nais ko, ikaw ay lagi lang na nandiyaan Sana kahit tayo ay magkalayo (classmate) Maalala mo ako (dahil)

Unang araw pa lang, minahal na kita, ah Bakit ba ganito ang aking nadama? 'Di man kita lubusan pang kilala Eh, ano naman? Basta mahal kita

whoops i haven’t done much in a while today’s the 31st anniversary of one of my favorite game series, so i used it as an excuse to draw something cute for a parody fic that’s basically poking fun at almost every trollfic trope in the book. since these two are actually brothers in the story and were born together on december 19th, i figured why not make a cute birthday picture because i was in the mood for drawing little kiddos. for those wondering, palutena is the one who took the photo

Here is the full list of topics left out of the Direct:

* Waluigi’s Taco Stand will come to the Nintendo 3DS later in 2018.

* Super Smash Bros. on the Switch will be the final main game in the Smash Bros. franchise. After that, SWB: DLATRS: The Smashing Fighter will take its place.

* Tournament Gone Wrong will be remade into Smash: The New Chaos Of Smash (title not finalized) and will release on the Wii U sometime within the next few weeks.
