Rapper Loonie returns with a quieter kind of confidence in his new single “May Nanalo Na,” a collaboration with soul singer Frizzle Anne, which leans into sincerity rather than spectacle. This marks his first proper release since “APESHIT” with Apekz last June, a track that signaled his re-entry into music after his most recent full-length album. This time, he appears more self-assured and less concerned with lyrical warfare, choosing instead to explore something more grounded.
The music video features Loonie in a suit and tie, leaning against a sleek car, looking more relieved than restless. He’s not circling opponents or trading punches in a rap battle. Instead, he’s standing at a wind farm beside Frizzle Anne, delivering verses that feel more personal than combative. The line “Sa wakas napunta na rin sa tamang tao” lands early in the track and sets the tone for the rest of the song. The first bar is a clear nod to something that feels like resolution.
Frizzle Anne’s presence in the song is steady. She is not just a voice in the chorus but a balancing force. Loonie has always had a sharp instinct when choosing collaborators, as seen in “Tao Lang” with Quest or his long-time work with Stick Figgas partner Ron Henley. But Frizzle Anne brings a different kind of rhythm, one that slows the pace without dulling the impact.
The video is directed by Raliug, one half of the director and director of photography team Lunchbox, known for previous work with Ben&Ben, One Click Straight, and Maki. The visual direction stays understated, letting the music carry the story.
There is speculation among fans about whether this single points to an upcoming EP or album, though nothing has been confirmed. What is clear is that the audience seems ready to give Loonie space to evolve, even if it means watching him fall in love before making another hard return to battle rap.
