00:00 Is the new song of American rapper and singer Doja Cat a strong opponent?
00:05 The title of this song is similar to the Filipino delicacy "Balut"
00:09 That's what Mark Salazar is aiming for.
00:11 American rapper Doja Cat became more popular among Filipinos
00:24 because she named her fourth single "Balut" which will be released on Friday.
00:29 You know that the Filipino online always has a say.
00:33 Some say that Doja Cat's "Balut" is clickbait
00:37 to get the attention of the Filipino netizens.
00:40 But in Doja Cat's IG story,
00:43 she explained that the "Balut" is a symbol of the eating of a living bird
00:48 which is her way of showing the death of a toxic Twitter.
00:53 But do we eat a living bird?
00:55 We Filipinos don't eat a living bird.
01:00 We still keep it alive before we eat it.
01:04 The brothers explained to Doja Cat what they call "taong"
01:09 which is the process of raising a chick inside an egg before it becomes a "balut"
01:15 that we keep alive before we eat it.
01:17 There's a "taong" where the fresh food is put in a basket
01:23 and it needs to be heated to keep the embryo alive.
01:28 The "pateros" is known as "balut sa puti"
01:31 which means that if the chick is already wrapped in "puti"
01:34 you won't be able to see the chick.
01:36 While some people don't like "balut" because of the look of the chick,
01:40 many people still ask for "pateros" for this delicacy.
01:44 Did you buy that much for personal consumption?
01:48 Yes, for us.
01:49 My brother, my neighbor, you give it to me.
01:52 "Balut" is delicious here.
01:54 I'm used to it and it's delicious.
01:56 It's for strengthening my teeth.
01:58 I'm already 50 plus.
02:01 Because the "pateros" are so proud of their "balut",
02:05 the chick and egg are a star on the seal of "pateros".
02:09 We're proud of it.
02:10 And this is our bread and butter.
02:13 Actually, our "balut" can reach any country.
02:17 Canada, London, Japan.
02:22 Regularly, I have Hong Kong.
02:24 For GMA Integrated News,
02:26 Mark Salazar,
02:28 for 24 Hours.
