"The winner of NPR’s 2025 Tiny Desk Contest is the Bay Area’s own Ruby Ibarra.
A research scientist and fiercely poetic lyricist raised in San Lorenzo, Ibarra raps in English alongside the Filipino languages of Tagalog and Bisaya. Her Tiny Desk Contest-winning track, 'Bakunawa,' was inspired by the dragon-like serpent of Philippine mythology."
