THE NIGHT OPM TOOK CENTER STAGE

SB19 is named Artist of the Year at inaugural Filipino Music Awards. The other awards for the P-pop kings are Pop Song of the Year for DUNGKA!, People's Choice Awards for both Artist and Song, Tour of the Year for the 'Simula at Wakas' and Concert of the Year for the world tour's kickoff show.

The inaugural Filipino Music Awards made its grand debut at the SM Mall of Asia Arena, bringing together the country’s biggest artists, producers and music industry leaders for a historic celebration of Original Pilipino Music (OPM).

The recent event organized by Modern Media Group Inc. — the team behind Billboard Philippines, Rolling Stone Philippines, Nylon Manila and Robb Report Philippines — and produced by AGC Power Holdings Corp. marked a new milestone for Philippine music.

Hosted by Joey Mead King, Michael Sager and Elijah Canlas, the awards night honored excellence across 20 categories, covering pop, rock, hip-hop, folk and R&B. With over 500 artists and industry guests in attendance and thousands of fans filling the arena, the affair underscored the growing influence and reach of Filipino music both locally and internationally.
