Episode 018
Mabuhay to everyone, it's great to see some familiar faces once again! This week and every week we bring you the best in Global Pinoy Music, and we are proudly presenting and celebrating EPISODE 18!
This week, The Chosen One is Filipino-American singer-songwriter Rocky Sandoval for his track “Belly Full Of Lies” which enjoyed four weeks in a row on The Chosen Dozen and this is his second single released exclusively through Warner Music Philippines.
Tacoma Seattle-based Rocky Sandoval has always been one to make moves and has continued to show the same will and determination throughout his career. His talent and music is unmatched, but what you will find if you dig a little deeper is a humble artist that keeps his head down and goes for gold. He keeps himself busy travelling around the States and performing including recent appearance in California alongside comedian Jo Koy and other artists thanks to Wish Bus USA. There's also rumors that he may be heading to the land of a thousand islands later this year to do some shows, but you didn't hear that from us.
In other news, your awesome host Steph will be introducing SIX brand new songs into The Chosen Dozen playlist, from artists such as Chloe Adona (USA), Tiana Kocher (USA), H3rizon (Australia), DACEY (Canada), Ankhten Brown (Manila, PH) and Ena Mori (Manila, PH).
Also, FIVE previous tracks have been kept in The Chosen Dozen for your listening pleasure including August Wahh (Manila, PH), Larrenwong (USA), YNISH (Manila, PH), Twellly (USA), and Karrtii (UK).
We also have our Wild Cards plus the Bonus Tracks while we look back on a release way back in August of 2021 by Sydney Australia-based Hip-Hop artist Esky for our FLASHBACK TRACK segment with the song “Good As Gold”. And introduces last episode is THE CHOSEN CLASSIC where we highlight a track that was a hit for us from way way back, this time from Manila artist now based in the USA, pop singer-songwriter, Hana ACBD, called “Young Fame” released in July of 2018.
