Father’s Day is just a few weeks off but Elmo Magalona seems to have found a perfect and fitting way to pay tribute to his father, the late Master Rapper, Francis M. Technology has played a huge role in relaunching the MTV for Kaleidoscope World. Now introduced as Kaleidoscope World Forever More, the new video features Elmo - singing along with his Dad, interacting, rapping and performing with him and his band. To say the video is touching is a bit of an understatement.
The behind the scenes crew deserve equal, if not more, credit. Footage from the original MTV was painstakingly combined with new scenes so viewers feel some level of authenticity. If someone didn’t know Francis M. died four years ago (I don’t know how that’s possible!) should see this video, there would be no doubt in your mind that these were just two performers collaborating.
Watch the video. Even if you are not a fan of Francis Magalona and his music, there’s something poignant about a son who wants to be with deceased father, one last time.
