Flood of submissions for the rap contest shows ‘overwhelming public support’ for the country’s campaign to defend the West Philippine Sea
To enter, participants are required to perform a one-minute rap over the beat of “Teritoryo” – a track by Morobeats that invokes the Philippines’ sovereign claims over the West Philippine Sea, Manila’s term for parts of the South China Sea within its exclusive economic zone.
The month-long contest offers a top prize of 100,000 pesos (US$1,754), with additional awards for runners-up and the most viewed entry, and winners will be announced five days after its conclusion.
