Homeroom Hero
by Mario Marcaida / CTRL ROOM

A mixtape memoir of late bells, lunchroom stories, and scotch-taped cassettes.
From blacktop dreams and rice stains on white uniforms, to doodles in margins and mixtapes played in crowded classrooms.

This album isn’t just about public school — it’s about every note passed, every transfer slip collected, and every quiet moment where you felt unseen but kept writing anyway.

Fast raps, Tagalog jokes, cafeteria slang, and city kid chronicles blend into a coming-of-age soundtrack straight from the Sco (San Francisco).
The first chapter before “Higher Education” — an echo from the CTRL ROOM.

Still scribblin’. Still spittin’. Still here.
