SB19 Conquers The Global Wild with Defiant New Anthem “LAWLESS”

Fresh from making history with their critically acclaimed debut performance at Lollapalooza in Chicago, SB19 has released their latest single, “LAWLESS,” which they premiered live for the very first time on one of the world’s most prestigious music festival stages.

“LAWLESS” marks a new direction for the award-winning quintet, transitioning from a locally established act to a global supergroup brand. In “LAWLESS,” SB19 declares that they’re an outlaw on the run: gutsy, more determined to take chances, and not the type to seek approval.

No longer constrained by conventional industry expectations, SB19’s latest bop sets their sights on disrupting the norm, reflecting a state of creative and career liberation. As the lyrics best describe it, “I’m lawless, better be cautious.”

Buoyed by maximalist production and cinematic soundscapes, “LAWLESS” takes P-Pop to a more sonically riveting ground, fusing hip-hop swagger with contemporary pop, Western, and surf rock influences.

Accompanying the release is an equally audacious but strikingly entertaining music video that subverts classic outlaw tropes through tongue-in-cheek homage to Western films. The visuals show SB19’s signature blend of wit, charisma, and boundary-pushing creativity.

SB19’s “LAWLESS” is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide via Sony Music Entertainment. Watch the music video here.

SB19’s “PAGTATAG! The Documentary” Hits Philippine Cinemas Today

SB19’s much-anticipated film, PAGTATAG! THE DOCUMENTARY, makes its grand theatrical debut across the Philippines today! Fans and music lovers alike are in for a treat as the film pulls back the curtain on the highs and lows of the group’s journey to global pop stardom.

A Raw and Real Inside Look

The documentary goes beyond the glitz and glamour, diving deep into SB19’s collective and individual experiences on tour. It showcases the intense pressure and anxiety the group faced while navigating their meteoric rise in the global music scene. This candid exploration of their journey highlights not just their achievements but the mental and emotional challenges they had to overcome.

As SB19 moves forward into a new era of music, career, and personal growth, PAGTATAG! THE DOCUMENTARY captures never-before-seen moments that test their resilience and commitment. The film doesn’t shy away from the struggles, offering an honest portrayal of the group’s year-long tour and album release, filled with setbacks that added to their mental and emotional stress.

Overcoming Adversity

“Part of what makes the film even more special is that it doesn’t sugar-coat the learnings and experiences that we’ve endured during the entire era of the PAGTATAG! tour and album release,” SB19 shares in a press statement. “The year-long run was filled with multiple setbacks that added mental and emotional distress. But as the title explains it best, the documentary will show how we bounced back from the adversities in life and career, and how we managed to mount a series of shows despite going through a lot of internal and collective struggles. We hope that through this movie, we will be able to inspire our A’TIN to become stronger and more resilient when they face a similar ordeal in a not-so-distant future.”

Behind the Scenes with SB19

SB19’s PABLO, who currently serves as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of 1Z Entertainment, emphasized that they’ve always thought about producing a documentary that captures the story behind the stage and the little moments that define the human aspects of mounting a tour of this scale and ambition.

“We’re grateful to First Light Studios and Jed Regala for helping us turn our vision into a reality,” PABLO reveals. “We’re lucky to have a team that understands the power of collaboration.”

Exclusive Screenings Nationwide

The film is set for exclusive screenings from August 28 to September 1 in cinemas nationwide. Don’t miss your chance to witness SB19’s incredible journey on the big screen!

GCash, SB19 usher in the holidays with this year’s newest Christmas Jingle

Leading financial superapp GCash is welcoming the much-awaited season of celebration by once again collaborating with multi-awarded P-Pop sensation SB19 on a catchy holiday jingle ‘We Wish You a Merry GCash.’

Set to the tune of the popular Christmas carol, this year’s LSS-worthy jingle is a nod to the Filipino tradition of ‘pangangaroling’ and ‘aguinaldo’ while enjoining everyone to share their Christmas joys with more loved ones and friends.

“Christmas in the Philippines is all about family – our immediate family, our chosen family in our friends, the family we created at work. During this season, we are more giving and joyful to show our loved ones just how grateful we are to them. We wanted to capture that in the form of bringing the Filipino community together. Through our Christmas jingle, we aim to connect with our Filipino customers by bringing them a little extra joy this holiday season,” said Neil Trinidad, Chief Marketing Officer of GCash.

In the Philippines, ‘pangangaroling’ is done by forming groups and going from house to house singing Christmas carols while greeting residents “Namamasko po!” As a gesture of appreciation, carolers are given ‘aguinaldo’ in the form of food, trinkets, or money.

With the help of GCash, it is now possible to keep the tradition alive in a new way. Carolers may now use their GCash QRs as they ask for aguinaldos from their families and loved ones with the Merry GCash jingle.

The upbeat and energetic Christmas pop song also shares how GCash makes it possible for everyone to experience a festive Christmas season with more loved ones in their lives.

By providing you with a convenient way of making sure your gift list is checked off and your noche buena essentials are complete, GCash has got you covered. But that’s not all as GCash also rewards you for your transactions so that you can treat your family and barkada – and even more people whom you’ve always wanted to include in your gift list.

With SB19 members Ken, Justin, Josh, Pablo, and Stell each taking the limelight with their powerful vocals and rap skills, GCash assures everyone, “Lahat may pamasko! Lahat may regalo!”

“We are thrilled to work once again with SB19, who are trailblazers in the P-Pop scene and have successfully brought Filipino music to the global stage,” Trinidad said. “Their songs about self-empowerment, overcoming challenges, and Filipino cultures and values resonate with a lot of Filipinos, which are also at the core of our brand.”

‘We Wish You a Merry GCash’ can be streamed on Spotify.

Lahat, Lucky and Merry with GCash!

The festive spirit continues beyond the jingle as GCash prepares to release a music video with celebrity endorser Joshua Garcia in the coming weeks. As Christmas draws nearer, GCash is also inviting everyone to get in on the holiday spirit with loads of Christmas surprises it has in store – from exclusive shopping discounts to additional access to shopping funds and holiday raffle prizes.
