P-Pop has been on the rise with Filipino musical talent becoming more recognized on the world stage. But among the burgeoning number of P-Pop groups, one has distinguished themselves by consistently and passionately repping Filipino culture. Ever since their debut in 2021, Viva Records and Nuno Media’s pride, ALAMAT, has been wowing fans by the way they embody their heritage ever so proudly.
From being a multi-ethnic and multilingual boy group (they’ve featured seven Filipino languages in their debut single, kbye) and tackling close-to-home themes such as colonialism and championing diversity, to the way they pay homage to cultural weaves and patterns in the way they look, ALAMAT continuously redefines the meaning of the P-Pop genre. It is also a vibrant year for ALAMAT as they treated their fans (fondly called Magiliw) to some new music with the release of their comeback single Sa Panaginip Na Lang earlier this year and just recently, their mini-album Pasulong with seven playlist-worthy tracks.
If you’re a certified Magiliw and are proud of ALAMAT’s triumphant return to the music scene this year, then head over to NYLON Manila’s Favorite P-Pop Comeback of 2022 poll and give your idols the love that they deserve. Meanwhile, let’s look at all the times when Taneo, Mo, Tomás, R-ji, Alas and Jao blessed our TikTok feeds with videos that scream Pinoy Pop excellence.
