Francis Magalona (October 4, 1964 - March 6, 2009),
also known as FrancisM, Master Rapper, and The Man From Manila, was a prominent Filipino rapper, songwriter, producer, actor, director, and photographer. Often hailed as the "King of Pinoy Rap", he was considered a legend in the Philippine music community. With the success of his earliest albums, he was the first Filipino rapper in the Philippines cross over to the mainstream. He is also credited for having pioneered the merging of rap with Pinoy rock, becoming a significant influence to artists in that genre as well. He was also a popular television host, notably on MTV Asia where he served as one of the channel's first Filipino VJs, and on noontime variety television show Eat Bulaga!. Magalona died on March 6, 2009 at the age of 44 due to acute myelogenous leukemia.
Magalona was one of the nine children of actors Pancho Magalona and Tita Duran, popular film stars of the 1940s and 1950s. His grandfather, Sen. Enrique Magalona served in the Philippine Senate from 1946 to 1955. He studied at San Beda College in Manila.
Magalona is married to Pia Arroyo, with whom he had eight children: Unna, Nicolo, Francis Jr., Elmo, Arkin, Clara, and actresses Maxene and Saab.
Magalona established a clothing line named FMCC, standing for "FrancisM Clothing Co."

That's called a sobriety chip and is given every so often to mark how long so far one has been clean and sober. In Francis' case he would've been substance-free, alcohol-free and nicotine-free for eight years this 2009.
