----
Produced and written by modern OPM prodigy Thyro Alfaro, 'Maharani' fuses neo soul with traditional southern Philippine and maritime South East Asian music, making use of instruments like kanun, gamelan, gangsa and byeon amidst an R&B and trap vibe. While the song tackles modern romance, the ingenious use of ancient Filipino royalty titles in the lyrics makes it a contemporary musical masterpiece that blurs the line between archaic and current.

When it comes to unique concepts, Alamat is one of the best. It gives me goosebumps to see how Alamat highlights the fusion of folk and modern. In the MV, dancers performed one of the folk dances, which is the singkil. According to cultural history, this is a very distinctive traditional dance of the Maranao people of the southern Philippines. Originally, Singkil was performed as a ritual for festivals and ceremonial rites of passage by the Maranao prince and princess to define their courtship. As I watch the video, the content is connected to what Singkil means, how the dancers performed it well, and the materials and costumes they used. Overall, the concept is the best. In this MV, we can learn that even if we live in the present, we don't forget to recognize our traditions and culture. I can say ALAMAT is great p-pop, and the way they promote Filipino culture in every song is remarkable! GALINGGGGGG 👏👏👏👏

[@cuffinosanjuan]

[@KatrinaandHenry]

I am so happy about how they display the real Filipino culture in every music video. this makes us proud to even watch them here in United States. I love the originality and everything. to whoever does all their costumes, songs, and choreography, and everything... More power to you guys and the entire team! so proud of you guys for helping them and also ALAMAT Thank you for displaying the real Filipino Culture in the 21st century. This helps a lot of us abroad embrace being a Filipino More. So proud of you guys

Lungkot ng MV pero ganda ng song. Hehehe. NakakaLSS. You guys are one of my fave ppop group. Goodluck! ❤ I pray na sana makilala pa kayo ng madami kasi your group represents our culture. ❤

[@CursedHerondale]

2 weeks ago, casual lang akong nakikinig sa Alamat starting with this song, pero ngayong ay Magiliw na. Iba't ibang concept and genre kaya kasi nilang gawin with an ode to PH's culture, tradition and folklores. Aside from their stunning visuals and exceptional talents in singing and dancing, nakakatuwa rin yung mga personalities nila, individually and as a group. Hoping for more success with our 6INOOS 🤎

[@brebreboolardoo5910]

Maharani ♥️ if I have a daughter someday I will name her maharani

[@syrenatty]

Maharani is by far the best song that Alamat has released. I instantly fell in love with this song the first time I heard it. This will be one of my all time fave songs tbh. Never get tired of listening to it, a total eargasm. What makes this song so good is that the beat and melody is euphoric but underneath, the lyrics is actually sad. Love this line from Taneo's verse - "Sa dami ng katunggali, magpupunyagi, Hanggang sa ako'y magwagi, Ngunit kahit magapi ang pagtingin, Dito pa rin maglalagi". Even though you know that you have little chance to be with this person, you never get tired of loving this person and hoping that someday you will be the one that is chosen. The song just hits right in the feels in so many levels. Love the music video's visuals and the aesthetics of the solo face shots. Great concept and storytelling. What I also love is that they went to a realistic ending which made it even better and very relatable. As not really a fan of PPop before, I tell you, Alamat's discography is soo good that this changed my mind. Hoping that many will also realize and discover Alamat the way I did! Crossing my fingers that this song and mv will catapult Alamat to greatness and the success that they really deserve!!! 🙌🙏✨
