“P-pop Rise” is the industry’s battlecry. The moment a Filipino act steps onstage, the determination to represent the local music scene takes over their entire being, as reflected in their performances. | HMallorcaINQ

But for leader Angela, it takes a lot of work behind-the-scenes to deliver an electrifying performance. “We’re stronger, very eager, wiser, and very involved. Ngayon, kapag may gusto kami, especially sa music namin, talagang nagsasalita na kami… Gusto namin kasi, lahat ng mga releases namin, may parte ‘yung KAIA, na mararamdaman mo na d’un ang KAIA .”

“[We want] to promote OPM, to promote our own talent, story natin, and maipakita sa music na lahat ng mga P-pop groups. Ang galing ng mga Pilipino and nakakatuwa na nakikita ‘yun nang unti-unti ng mga international fans ,” Angela said.1st.One, composed of Ace, Max, Alpha, J, Joker, and Jason, believe in the power of having a “trainee” or beginner mindset, even if it’s been three years since their official debut. Prior to their launch, the group was busy participating in various competitions.

When asked about their thoughts on what makes P-pop different from their counterparts, Ace admitted that he and his groupmates have “different opinions” on the topic, although he explained that they all believe that the industry is a “culture” in the local music scene. “We view them as a friend and an ally,” Gab said, when he spoke about their fellow P-pop artists. His bandmates Kheene, Joe, Ken, and Josh nodded in agreement.

“Gusto namin maapektuhan sila through our songs. We plan to elevate P-pop music through our songs, sa pamamagitan ng pagsulat tungkol sa ating karanasan at puso ng Pinoy. Kasi lalabas siya sa song, lalo na kapag passionate ka,” Kheene said.It’s been more than a year since Calista debuted with “Race Car,” but Anne, Dain, Laiza, Elle, Denise and Olive believe that they already evolved from babies to women.

“My journey is a very challenging journey which started with a re-direction because I was a pre-med student. I really wanted to take up medicine or become a microbiologist. Pero dumating ang opportunity at that time. So, para siyang redirection,” she said, while looking back at her roots. “It’s a collaboration, not just artists and fans, but also the platforms, companies, and record labels,” she continued. “It’s really a teamwork [because] no matter how good an artist is, or how supportive their fandom is, if they’re not in the right circle, I think it won’t work. If the people around their circle are not doing their best or may kulang , I don’t think it would work so it’s really a teamwork for everyone.
