Formerly known as Benggamanok, Lord Manuel started making an impact in the underground scene, battling in leagues such as Tietest. Raplines, and FRBL. He instantly became a controversial figure due to his hard-hitting, in-your-face style. In 2022, he participated in FRBL’s 1UP Tournament and won the championship. His FlipTop debut took place on the 24th of February 2024 at Won Minutes Luzon. He defeated Meraj in what many consider the best battle in the event. Lord Manuel’s next match in the league was against Philos at Unibersikulo 12. He wasn’t able to get the W but it was a close bout. The TRNGL member remained ruthless in his bars while showcasing more effective aggression in his delivery.
Apart from battle rap, Lord Manuel actively makes music as an emcee and producer. He has released a few EPs, albums, and mixtapes, which you can check out on his YouTube channel. Lyrics-wise, his tracks also have that confrontational vibe as his battles.
