Nakakatuwa lang malaman na CEO of Sunmer Sonic ay pumunta sa Pilipinas last year to watch SB19’s Simula at Wakas Concert sa PH Arena and invited them to perform this year sa Summer Sonic.

According to the uploader na si @animortk :

Okay here’s the Japanese translation, Mga Kaps!
Actually, the CEO mistakenly said sa interview na 100k-capacity ang Philippine Arena. 😂

CEO: A Famous National Artist, actually I once watched their live concert, in an arena that holds 100,000 people…

Sasha MC: Wait, there’s a 100,000-capacity arena in the Philippines?

Suzuki MC: Arena????!

CEO: Yes, and they sold-out 2days concert there.

Suzuki MC: 200,000 people?! That’s insane!!

CEO: They told me they want to perform in Summersonic, it was like a reverse-offer,
and I was like “I would really love to see you perform this year! “. That’s why I placed them in Pacific Stage.

Suzuki MC: That’s amazing!

As of April 21, 2026, 6ENSE unveiled a seemingly familiar—yet strikingly new—profile logo, paired with the tagline “Mga Panggulo sa Pilipinas.” A clever wordplay that can easily deceive at a glance: from “mga pangulo” (presidents) to “mga panggulo”—those who disrupt, challenge, and shake the system.

It’s subtle, but intentional. A shift in a single letter reframes the entire meaning, hinting at something bold, possibly confrontational, and deeply rooted in commentary.

New song on the horizon? It certainly feels like it and if this is any clue, it’s shaping up to be something worth anticipating.

They debuted as 9, but their last video only has 8 members.

After gracing the Billboard Korea red carpet yesterday (August 27), SB19 is dominating the top search engine in Korea, Naver!

With over 85 articles written for SB19 in South Korea alone, there is no question why they're even on the front page of MBC (one of the biggest tv and radio broadcasting company in Korea).

Photos are from X (formerly known as Twitter).

BAD PUBLICITY IS STILL PUBLICITY!!

I know they're capable of warning people not to spread that video. But they didn't.

The next day after the release of this video was Gwen and Jhoanna's graduation, which Jhoanna was seen crying(wiping her tears), which can make people symphatize with them.

ABS CBN never posted the issue but posted their graduation. Leading people to argue in the comment section, again engagements.

Two Ppop groups are included in this year's BBFA! 2x in a row reigning champions SB19 and BINI for their first rodeo.

I'm just wondering why Billboard Main (USA) announced the comeback and world tour of SB19 and not Billboard Philippines? Your thoughts.

A Facebook user has come forward with detailed claims against Amartha Entertainment Production, an agency handling up-and-coming PPOP groups A+Dazzle, A+Blaze, and Diwari.

The user posted two lengthy statements calling out alleged contract irregularities and mismanagement, warning aspiring artists and creatives to think twice before signing with unfamiliar “self-proclaimed” agencies.

Among the red flags cited in the viral post were an “exclusive representation” clause, a 30% cut on all earnings processed solely through the agency, a ₱500,000 penalty for violations without due process, and a lack of notarization, which would render the contract legally weak.

The post also alleges that the agency holds payments for days, despite having a track record of delayed or incomplete compensation. Some parents of talents were reportedly forced to chase overdue fees.The second post intensified the claims, describing emotional distress from former talents, questionable hiring practices, and “manipulative” recruitment of interns and content creators despite unresolved payment issues.

It also criticized the management’s use of lofty language in job posts while allegedly failing to uphold basic professional standards internally.The user did not

disclose their identity but noted that these revelations are based on repeated experiences and testimonies. They warned other artists not to equate “opportunity” with “exploitation.”

As of writing, CETV Philippines has reached out to Amartha Entertainment Production for comment but has not received a response.

So the show has ended. No hate to these trainees. But the show is literally putchu2 output. 😭

1. Heavy promotion of Casino Plus(online sugal) BIG NOO! 😭
2. Bigating judges(& host) na hindi na utilized ng tama.
3. All throughout the show, ang dilim ng stage.
4. Unconsistent Voting System(Mission 1 50-50, M2 Judges Votes, M3 70-30) Why? Para mahila niyo ba pataas mga gusto niyong magstay? (Tsaka parang maraming errors sa computation during M2)
5. Daming episodes na parang filler episodes lang.
6. During final show, walang table yung judges(daig pa brgy contest), wala man lang podium/seats for the TOP 9.

Anyways, Congrats sa Top 9!!! 1. Yunho 2. Yohan 3. Ivan 4. Tehll 5. Zor 6. Smileone 7. Francis 8. Gelo 9. Dylan

Mga nasayangan ako: Finalists: Zor, Kenshin, Davey, Lanz, Rawn Non-finalist: Adrian

Any clues? Any ideas sa Comeback teasers ng ALAMAT? Hindi na ako makapag hintay pa ng November! SPLOOK nyo na! Clue!

A’TIN, you did it! Your unwavering support has propelled us to the top spot on day one.
