About the Rhythm Natives

In the early '00s, Chatsworth High School became the meeting grounds for the band that is known as the Rhythm Natives. They were founded on a common love for hip hop and live instrumentation, and the integration of the two. Fronted by two emcees - Jon Narboneta, and Glen Techico - they’ve expanded into a six man unit that also includes: bassist Matt Mora, drummer Robert Fabros, keyboardist Chez Guinto, and guitarist Martin Fabros.

Their sound is found between the cracks of genre divisions. The organic mix of hip hop, jazz, R&B, and soul has earned them the respect of various events and venues up and down the California coast. Their lyrics are in tune with everyday experiences and social trends – all resonating with their listeners, who are often found immersed in a Rhythm Natives melody and rhyme.

In 2007, they recorded their live show at the Temple Bar in Los Angeles. Since then, copies have been floating around Southern California and beyond. The musical energy heard on each track is so significant, that it has left fans wanting more. In October 2010, the Rhythm Natives answered with the release of their self titled debut album that is sold in both digital and physical forms. They have proven to be on the rise, bringing a breath of fresh air to the art they love so much.

 

Wikipedia

Look what I found on Wikipedia …

The first line say: “This is a list of Filipino Americans who have made significant contributions to the American culture, politics, or society. It also includes those with notable mentions in the American media.” Going down the list I found some really interesting facts about people that I would’ve not known that had some Filipino blood in them. Like, Did you know that Greg Oden and Nate Robinson are Filipinos. “Whaaat?!” is right. Moving down the list I fell upon Musical Groups and look what I found under that category … Not sure if you can clearly see the screen print but it says: Rhythm Natives – Filipino American Hip Hop Band from Los Angeles.

So, If you ever want more facts about something you’re looking for and can’t find it on Google, go to Wikipedia. It’s pretty cool to see our name categorized under all those big names in the world.
