Ronnie Liang Takes Flight!

I’ve met Ronnie Liang a couple of times, the last one of which was during Elwood Perez’s Esoterika: Maynila. I was so surprised to see him in a different light, I’d mistake him for a KPOP star then if he didn’t speak Filipino. Today he’s wearing a different hat, he’s also got a pair of wings to go with it. He’s planning to become a licensed pilot, a dream that he’s been wanting to do for the longest time. Aside from the accolades and praises he’s been getting from his TV, Film and music career, no matter how it takes.

For those who don’t know, Ronnie came from very humble beginnings, but his father would always tell him how high his dreams were even when he was younger. He might have been rejected so many times, but he persevered and says “I believe God has always been good to me. I sometimes couldn’t believe how much I’ve been blessed. Even now that I am going to become a pilot. Prayers do really work!”

He adds “The training I got from Strike Wing Aviation in Pasay City is awesome. Every time I go there I learn something new, there are so many good people there who guide me, and I intently listen to them.”

Ronnie continues to balance his time as an actor, singer and soon as a pilot. He’s an achiever and it’s inspiring to see a person go live his dreams. By the way, he’s also part of action film MARIA starring Cristine Reyes under Viva Films. Make sure you watch that on the 27th of March. Meanwhile, he will also be part of Ghost Adventures on Sari-sari Channel on the 25th. He will also be with Sarah Geronimo on De La Salle Dasma and Baguio on the 18th. He is also planning to have a major concert within the year, so watch out for that too!

Ronnie extends his thanks to Viva for having him in so many projects all these years (7 to be exact). He wants to be Boss Vic’s personal pilot if they plan to get a plane soon.

Congratulations Ronnie!

PPOP Generation Starts Shows on Teatrino Promenade

When I saw these 45 teens sing and dance on stage, I wondered about who their target audience was gonna be and I worried about how their management would be able to give sure exposure, the stardom that they want from being a part of one of the largest girl groups in the country. So I went and saw their debut show last night, it was surprisingly good.

Ask viral dance expert Ella Cruz who also enjoyed the show!

For going above and beyond their dreams, for practicing almost a year and forming the girls for two years, their dance numbers were on point. Albeit (maybe doing plus ones) on some song numbers, it was understandable because they have a very upbeat and fun routine. They will however give back more of the experience by enjoining the audience on parts of the performance on stage, a fun activity that evening. 

I understood they're not just doing this for the local scene, I would be surprised if they didn't show this to foreigners, perhaps tour operators could connect them. Or maybe it would be wise to take this show elsewhere in the world because they are good, have super nice clothes and can give artists here a run for their crowns. They also have spontaneous talk in between so it's not stiff, now go and get tickets through the Music Museum website because it might be a few days before they run out of them! 

They can bring it, it's quite entertaining and I wouldn't be surprised if they go abroad soon!

#YATO (You Are The One) by Lance Raymundo

Lance Raymundo releases new music video for YATO

Yesterday we had the privilege of getting to talk to the one and only Lance Raymundo. I was able to talk to him a couple months back about his passion projects but I was so giddy to hear that he’s singing again, though he never did stop. The cause for celebration yesterday was the release of his new music video for #YATO (You Are The One). Know that this single has been released years ago but it now had suddenly got a breath of fresh air with the help of a couple individuals and his management company Viva Artists Agency who gave him the nod of doing this in a different time.

Lance says "We hardly changed anything because it just was made with an acoustic vibe. It is always exciting to see your stats up in spotify. According to Viva they expect me to release a song, it's something to look forward to."

He adds “Perhaps soon, I want to do a collaboration with my brother because he's my idol. I hope that becomes a reality.“

Sure enough, this single is now getting a lot of plays in digital music apps like Spotify, more so in this particular weather when you just would want to cuddle up, grab a cup of coffee and reminisce about life and love. When I saw the video yesterday, I was a little taken aback with the way they told the story. For those who do not know, Lance met an accident in a gym a few years ago. It immobilized him for a couple of months and had to undergo several operations to restore his face plus a few sessions for rehab. He’s completely okay now but that for any person would have been traumatic and he personally wanted to include that story in the video so it could reach more people and learn from it. Aside from that, he mentions this is slightly autobiographical. It made me a little sad remembering that incident, but I do get his point. The video also tackled things about love and how it could be in ways, very unconditional. If that happens to you, then that is when you can finally say that you have found “The One”, things that we have all wished for.

Here’s two videos from the talk we had inside Black Maria Theatre in San Juan City.

Lance talks about his past, his ex, and his music

I adore Lance as a person because he has been so nice to me. Every time we meet it’s like meeting an old friend and that is quite unusual for artists these days when they meet little ol bloggers like me. He’s very humble, down to earth and very approachable. Hope you get to see this music video very soon and listen to his music available for download on Spotify and other digital stores. It’s time to fall in love with who he really is, and his music!

Congratulations Lance! I am so happy for you!
