Artist's Description
“Outsmart The Monkey” is a Filipino-English nu-metal, rap-metal and funk-metal track inspired by the classic Philippine folktale of The Monkey and the Turtle—but brought into the modern world.
The monkey represents greed, ego, arrogance and brute force: the person who wants everything, takes credit, talks the loudest and believes power always wins. On the other side is the quiet thinker—the one who watches, learns, waits and knows that intelligence doesn’t need to make noise.
Built around raw, jumpy guitar riffs, warm popping bass, huge kicks, cracking snares and an aggressive rap-metal groove, “Outsmart The Monkey” delivers a simple message:
Being stronger doesn’t always make you smarter.
Being louder doesn’t always make you right.
And being quiet doesn’t mean being weak.
Sometimes you don’t have to fight the monkey.
You just have to outsmart it.
