"For John and Robert" Single by Irrevocable
Irrevocable released a powerful cry for help - For John and Robert! The song depicts cries of anguish and helplessness with the singer trying to reach out through a monitor but only ending with disappointment and heartbreak.
In their own words:
For all the victims of pointless killings done for greed.
John and Robert were two of the four people kidnapped from a raid at the Holiday Ocean View Samal Resort on September 2015. They never came back home.
