I first encountered SB19 through the vibrant poster and billboard ads from Dunkin, but I never quite ventured into their music. It wasn’t until the release of their Pagtatag EP in 2023 that the group truly caught my attention. Among the tracks, “Gento” began to gain some traction, especially through a TikTok dance challenge my sister introduced me to.
As I explored their music video on YouTube, I found myself captivated by the blonde-haired individual with a deep voice. This member, revealed to be Ken, expresses his unique artistry under the name FELIP. Intrigued, I began researching his discography and came across the COM•PLEX EP. Not only did I resonate with the songs, but I was also impressed by the exceptional production quality of his music videos.
In his COM•PLEX performances, Felip ingeniously offers fans two distinct experiences: the electrifying “Dancing Felip” and the rebellious “Rocker Felip” with a band. This innovative approach not only showcases his versatility but also adds an exciting element of unpredictability to each show, ensuring that audiences are treated to a dynamic and unforgettable experience every time.
What draws me to Felip’s artistry is not just his voice, but the passion and emotion he pours into every performance. Whether it’s the raw energy of “MICTEST“, the soulful vibes of his cover of “Moving Closer” or his redemption song “Kanako”, Felip’s voice brings a unique depth to his music.
In an era where music often feels manufactured, Felip’s authenticity shines through. His performances are not just about showcasing his talents, but about letting us peek into the windows of his heart and soul.
Through Felip’s music, I’ve found a new appreciation for Filipino talent. His ability to stay true to his roots while creating music that transcends borders is truly admirable. His songs have become a constant soundtrack in my life, a reminder of the magic that happens when passion meets talent.
Like his voice.like him to make rnb songs or ballad because of the coolness of his voice.much we the baby boomers can relate.
He has this presence and confidence one can not ignore. More than his visual, his pure talent, charisma, fearlessness and authentic personality have drawn me to learn more about him. One of his interviews (Dougbrock Radio) revealed his deep passion for music and its future. He’s one gifted man, a beautiful person inside-out!
