Mark Ezekiel Maglasang (born June 13, 1995), also known mononymously as Honcho (formerly Bosx1ne), is a Filipino rapper, singer and songwriter. He founded the Filipino hip-hop group Ex Battalion in 2012,[2] whose collective gained nationwide prominence with hits such as "Hayaan Mo Sila" and "No Games", the only trap tracks that charted the Top 10 of the now-defunct Billboard PH Top 20. The collective is also known for their numerous hit singles "Ikaw Kase", "Unreleased (Mahirap Na)", and "Yearly". He reportedly left the group in 2022 after an alleged altercation with fellow Ex Battalion member Skusta Clee and has since released solo work on his record label DeeFyre Records.[3]

Bosx1ne founded Ex Battalion who gained nationwide fame in 2018 after the release of "Hayaan Mo Sila", he changed his screen name to Honcho in mid-2020.[4]

In April 2021, Honcho announced a lenten special EP entitled "Rosario", which he would be releasing on YouTube on a one-track-a-day arrangement from April 1 to 4, starting with the first song entitled "Ulap" featuring Jekkpot, Brando, and MC Einstein, and finally ending with the titular song itself.[5]

In August 2022, Honcho apparently was "kicked out" of Ex Battalion after an alleged altercation with Skusta Clee, according to a cryptic post by the latter indicating Honcho has left the group.[3][6]
