Ito na naman tayo, ang mundong mahihilig pumutakte ng mabababaw na iskandalo kesa sa mga mahahalagang isyu ng bansa. Palibhasa kasi tapos na ang SONA at nauurat na rin ang tao sa mga bagay na may kinalaman sa #obosen.

So sa isang panayam sa entablado kasi ng FHM 100 Sexiest Victory Party na ginanap kamakailanlang, sinabi ng isang artista na si Jessy Mendiola na “sexiest woman” siya.

O ano naman? Ang yabang raw kasi.

Playback: Nag[ma]mahal, BennyBunnyBand

Off all the bands I've been listened to in the current music scene, BennyBunnyBand can be considered as one of the standouts, and we're not talking about popularity here; but rather, in terms of infusing their own sound.

Imagine a ukulele doing the lead thing in crafting a kind of rock music of its own. And since Benny Giron and his bandmates have rabbits as a spirit animal, it's no surprise they labeled themselves kuneho rock

The (Fantasy) Pre-take: WWE Draft


07/20/2016 06:21:31 AM

Never in my life would I thought of doing this. I mean I could have do so, every year when the basketball leagues held their lottery (but of course, a lot of matters made me unable to do so).

I should be practicing that come the upcoming PBA draft soon. Meantime, shifting from basketball to professional wrestling.

PlayBack: Banna Harbera - Persistence (EP)

Give these kids a break if after two years, they just released three tracks in their new EP. After all, Banna Harbera has shown persistence in making music their way.

The Rundown Slam: The Final Deletion

07/13/2016 01:37:51 PM

I rarely watch TNA since other wrestling promotions wasn't really getting airtime on Philippine television (with WWE obviously dominating in a somewhat monopoly-like outlook). But despite being under-the-rader to a typical wrestling fan, Dixie Carter's firm were more familiar to the smarks, and it shows why for one reason: being a home to some of the greatest stars we have seen in both WWE and WCW.

PlayBack: Burn Mercado – 43 Sunsets

When it rains, it pours. And it's so typical we get more emotional tracks on an ordinary rainy day. And even if those #emo tracks were almost invisible to point in the current circulation, #hugot tracks had take over the scene. And it doesn't necessarily need to penetrate the charts for its presence to be more evident.

PlayBack: Runway Hits – Alon

07/04/2016 02:35:25 PM

Perhaps this is the one of the very first times I have encountered this young band called Runway Hits. Well, frankly, I have seen them in gigs before but I have yet to be divulged with whatever they are offering.

Perhaps, it was a long wait until the indie band Fools and Foes finally unfolded a chapter in their respective musical lives when they released their five-track EP called Underneath the Roots last year at SaGuijo.

The Scene Around: Bigwasounds

At the height where Baron Geisler and Kiko Matos were the talk of the town, We Are The Underdogs Productions had a cool event of their own (though it was done in a non-violent way amidst heavyweight-comprised lineup).

PlayBack: Tanya Markova - Mister Tililing

06/26/2016 12:53:01 AM



Perhaps the long wait was over, when this shock pop/goth rock band released their album for the first time since going mainstream six years ago.

He Can't Wrestle ('Cause He's Suspended!)

Perhaps we haven't really seen this coming. All we know is that Roman Reigns will either retain the title or lose it to Dean Ambrose; and frankly, it's more of a latter with a some kind of en route to Seth Rollins. 

Upcoming: Rubicon II

07/04/2016 04:08:15 PM

Talk about reunion. Seismo, in partnership with Continent Records had made its way to reunite three bands for a one-night only show, and it's called Rubicon II with a pun intended for your favorite chocolate bar.

Perhaps of all the awards given at the National Basketball Association, this is something new yet a very important gem in the world of this sport. Well, why not? This proved how powerful the word “teamwork” is.

Isa sa mga pinag-uusapan ito mula pa noong pagputok ng mga resulta sa nakaraang eleksyon. Aniya kasi, alam na ng marami kung sino ang mananalo.

At dahil nga na obvious na si Rodrigo Duterte ang nanaig noong eleksyon para maging ika-16 na pangulo ng republika ng Pilipinas, tiyak na isa ang salitang ito sa naging pinuputakte ng mga tao: ang curfew.
