‘Tax ng Ina Mo!’: Economist and professor Cielo Magno just turned political real talk with rap and it slaps

Former Finance Undersecretary Cielo Magno takes her government roasting to the next level with an original rap song.

Economist and professor Cielo Magno kicked off her rapper era with an original track titled “Tax ng Ina Mo!,” created in collaboration with musician Jake Regala, leveling up her commentary on national issues through sharp, unapologetic lyrics, and there’s even a full music video.

“Eto na po ang music video ng ating kantang Tax ng Ina Mo! Maraming salamat po. Sana ay nagustuhan ninyo,” she wrote on Facebook.

The song caught attention online, with netizens praising both the message and the execution:

“Anybody will appreciate great talent when they encounter one. Mabuhay kayo, tuloy ang adhikain.”

“Ganda ng beat and sakto ang lyrics! Sana maintindihan ng mga Pilipino para di na boboto ng mga magnanakaw.”

“Ang tindi ng mensahe! Galing nyo Prof”

“Prof Cielo, ang galing! Ikaw na!”

“Woahh! Matalino na, artistic pa! Magandang message po ito na galing sa totoong tao, hindi ΑΙ.”
