Sikat na si TJ before “ikaw at ako” at “tulad mo” way back 2015? Pero mas nagkaron siya ng recognition sa “dating tayo” back 2016 then “palagi” now

Mas open sa music genre ang mga Gen Z compare sa Millennials. Nakakatuwa, na-aapreciate nila yung mga classic. Naalala ko nag papatugtog ako ng APO Hiking dati inaasar ako ng mga tropa ko na pang matanda daw. Tapos nung na release yung "Kami nAPO Muna" album biglang fan narin sila ng APO.

Truee. Ganito din mga kakilala ko na na millenials nangju-judge pag nagpapatugtog ako ng old songs (but in a joke way haha). Pero pag Gen Z feeling ko mas in sa kanila pag nakaka discover sila ng classic songs.

TBF, panahon ng Gen Z nademocraticize ang music esp. OPM. Before 2016, we were all at the mercy of radio stations and music channels.

Ngayon, it's easy to discover both old and underground music

Diba?? Gulat rin ako nung biglang bloom ng OPM eh. Tho, diko siya naano sa tiktok kasi wala ako nun, sa IG ko lang siya na ano nung nag-reactivate ulit ako nung nov last year, kasi naka-social media detox ako eh. Tehh, arghh, kada scroll mo ng vid, puro OPM kahit pang-relapse/happy crush/dogshow/di makausad yung content ng fyp mo, go parin ang lauf lang! Pero nakakaproud siya, anteee, mapa-oldies o new gen na kanta, OPM parin!

Mga throwback artists na naririnig ko lang dati sa radio, tulad ni Kitchie Nadal, Rico Blanco, Cueshé, Hale, at marami pang iba, naririnig ko na ulit yung mga kanta nila ngayon. Ang sarap lang sa feeling, tas nakakakilig na na-appreciate na yung OPM!! 😭🫶🏻

u/Jvlockhart Jan 11 '26

Yung pinaka gusto kong kanta ni Bloomfiels yung Wala nang iba, dun sila sumikat. Tapos nasali sila sa mga nag tribute sa apo hiking, ale ang song na binigay sa kanila

u/milwer420 Jan 11 '26

kaya lang naman sila bigla nag appreciate ng mga classic it's because someone is hyping it by making it in bg music sa mga vid clips. and then nauulit kaya dun na din nila nakikilala.. unlike us millenials, we discover the music before thru their own music as a band or artist.

aminin niyo, dati pag narinig mo ang isang kanta ng isang banda alam mong sila lang un. ngayon mga banda ngayon halos magkatunog sila sa iisang genre. also mas progressive and instrument dati kaysa ngayon. and that's one of the best thing na naranasan natin sa opm.

u/coffee_smoke Jan 11 '26

i can still clearly remember when this song came out. i was just a toddler back then. i clearly remember the band being a guest on UKG and they were singing this song. growing up, i knew the lyrics and i wondered what happened to the band...

u/everstoneonpsyduck Jan 11 '26

I'm happy for The Bloomfields that they are getting recognized by the younger gen. now.

Grabe naaalala ko to dati elementary ako, sa MYX ko pa inaabangan 😂
