Takaw Tingin by Paul Pablo
To top off the list, Paul Pablo’s magnificent way of showing your bravest form through a song makes me gush over its lyrics and beat! Brushing off the haters and making it on your own, his newly released single Takaw Tingin might be the new anthem for confidence and ultimate slayage.

ur man by Jason Dhakal
A perfect song for a sultry scene, a celestial high, and an intimate desire, Jason Dhakal’s recent release, alongside his tracks “remember?” and “manila,” is a song to look out for for people who are in a passionate state. Jason takes us to an exciting world of yearning for something so tangible and ever so tender, like the love we want others to feel. Sexy time? It’s this song.
Songbird (Cover Version) by Nica del Rosario & Justine Peña
Celebrating the sweetest time of the year, Nica del Rosario and Justine Peña paid tribute to the original 1977 song by the British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac. The two artists may have carefully considered covering a song that has no particular relation to somebody, but rather a song that opens for various people to identify with. Selfless and honest, the song imposes, but it gives off a heavenly vibe accompanied by del Rosario and Peña’s angelic vocals.
bakit ba ikaw pa rin? by Kean Lockes
Upbeat, fresh, and fun, Kean Lockes’ new release means to celebrate Pride month in the most honest and vulnerable way. It’s a song I identify with, not gonna lie! But with his honest style of story-telling of the will-they-won’t-they trope, the song becomes true and embracing. Yup, it’s hard to admit that we can’t easily move on to our previous partner—or even crushes! So what better way to cope with that than by singing…right?
habangbuhay/habang buhay by Dom Guyot ft. Janine Berdin
Taking courage to face your feelings and come to terms with your emotion, habangbuhay/habang buhay definitely captures the complexity of love and how one deals with it. Dazed and confused, Dom and Janine make a perfect duo to tell the story. In full circles, love is complex and we should savor every moment of it.
