Background
The Philippine drug war, which is the ongoing drug policy of the Philippine government under President Duterte, has been pointed out by critics on its effects on the human rights situation of the Philippines. The number of those who have been killed range from the official government figures of 5,104 to as many about 29,000 classified as "deaths under inquiry." After three years since the start of Duterte's term in 2016, research and activism has led to various artists to collaborate to make the Kolateral album. The album was made to recognize the abuses of the drug war, as well as to call for action.
