MMG Set To Release Original RUN TO YOU Single This 4th of July!

Mark Michael Garcia is turning a new leaf in his career. The very talented man who won "Tawag ng Tanghalan" as the Ultimate Resbaker a few years ago literally got stuck in limbo when the pandemic happened just when he was about to lay plans for his career and music. This year, he's sporting a new moniker as "MMG", which makes sense as it feels more catchy and current. Aside from that, he just got the nod of composer songwriter Allan Rich who did Whitney Houston's "Run To You" single for the movie "The Bodyguard". Together with Jud Friedman, they gifted him the rights to release the actual original song this 4th of July in streaming platforms worldwide. They caught him performing his James Ingram medley on the internet and was impressed, they got in touch and yes, the rest is history! 

We heard him a few days ago and by any standards, he's magnificent! Together with the single release, he's going to have a concert entitled CODE NAME: MMG which will happen on August 2 at the Samsung Music Hall in SM Aura BGC. He promises to perform new songs and covers that you might not have heard before. This is produced by Chef Jeng Sy Flores who also owns Heavenly Desserts by Chef Jeng and District One Gastrolounge in BGC. 

Here's what happened at the press conference 

 

Tomorrow, please tune in to Cornerstone Entertainment's channels as this heavily awaited single will be shown there. 

I'll update this post with the actual RUN TO YOU (alternative version) so you could witness his great work. By the way, he won a Best Male Vocalist award in the US, and some talk of him joining THE VOICE USA is also in the works. I'm sure he's going to blow the competition away!

Congratulations MMG!

VXON Releases "Sh*t Sobrang Init" Single

VXON's C13, Sam, Franz, Vince and Patrick were at the Rocket Design Studio this afternoon as their newest single "Sh*t Sobrang Init" and music video was launched today.

They're taking a different route than usual, as this summer track is their hottest, more daring single to date. They had their adoring fans in attendance, and this will be part of their upcoming EP planned by Cornerstone Entertainment and Cornerstone Music.

Truth be told, they got us hooked with the new single that had more of a summer vibe as they included various tropical instruments for the catchy tune. For the ladies and those who feel a little frisky, the boys delivered a music video with a theme that got them basking in the sun, sweltering hot, all sweaty but inviting. It's a huge change from their wholesome look in previous videos, and want you to dance along with the new choreography they prepared for their adoring fans, and those who doesn't know them yet. 

During the interview, they shared how they were in a creative mood with the naughty lyrics, and got the music done quite fast without their usual huddle when making a track. The producer already found the one they made apt for the feel they wanted for the single, and I could barely hear the music when they performed earlier (because their fans were screaming on the top of their lungs).

The video is already out on the VXON Official YouTube channel so get acquainted with these guys today!

This is under Cornerstone Entertainment and Cornerstone Music.

MARVIN AGUSTIN and JOLINA MAGDANGAL for EX EX LOVERS (Cinema Visit)

Just got out of the cinemas after watching the Marvin-Jolina  reunion movie called Ex Ex Lovers. It certainly brings back memories of the 90's couple we've seen on TV and the movies. 

Marvin Agustin and Jolina Magdangal Escueta play parents to soon to be wed characters of JK Labajo and Loisa Andalio. It felt like we were in a time space warp because the loveteam still works. Before the screening, we talked to Marvin and Jolina in the sidelines and they said that it was easy to make this film because once the film rolls, Jolina just turns into a worm squirming and giddy like they used to. She also adds how they never even have to talk about the scenes because it was like they never even had to lift a finger, effortless in fact. They're both so glad about how the new generation of folks get to be fans of what they are doing on screen, something they have been trying to do for years. They even read feedback on Reddit about how those who didn't quite adore them in the past are now fans of the tandem.

The movie is cute, has little spots of laughter, and some serious drama scenes that involves family. They also have filmed most of this film in Malta, which makes some of the scenes so picturesque. The quality of the cinematography is impeccable, and the story is quite nice. I bet Marvin Jolina fans would LOVE this not just because they are here, but it has its own merits. 

Go watch EX EX LOVERS in cinemas nationwide. It will also be shown in selected countries as distribution was confirmed by them earlier. I heard US, North America and the Middle East is included. Go see it and expect the kilig! This is produced by Project 8, Cornerstone Studios, and distributed by Warner Brothers.
