Ok, let's move on to Episode 24! This week we have Filipino-Canadian RnB Soul Singer-Songwriter and Producer, August Rigo from Canada as #TheChosenOne with his latest track "Loving You Makes Me" making it into our playlist for a fourth week in a row!
Earlier this year, August Rigo dropped a seven-song project that detailed a story about heartbreak. It was released in increments from Monday to Sunday on the week of its release, each song building the story from the one previously released. A month after that he dropped a six-track EP titled Emotional Knocks which is the project that this week's chosen one is taken from! August Rigo has also produced for some of the world's biggest superstars such as Justin Bieber, Chris Brown, and BTS to name a few.
In other news, we will be introducing FOUR brand new songs into The Chosen Dozen playlist, from artists such as Magsy (Los Angeles, USA), Manila Grey (Vancouver, Canada), Sin Santos (Melbourne, Australia), and Illest Morena (Manila, Philippines).
Also, EIGHT previous tracks have been kept in The Chosen Dozen for your listening pleasure including GMC (Sydney, Australia), Vetta Borne (Sydney, Australia), Denise Julia (Manila, Philippines), Kiéf (Manila, Philippines) & Jake Fandiño (Manila, Philippines), Ruuu (Cagayan De Oro, Philippines), Clarissa Mei (Sydney, Australia), André Molina (New Jersey, USA), and the previously mentioned August Rigo (Toronto, Canada).
