SB19's Felip delights Cebu A'TINs

Screams from SB19’s fans — called A’TINs — echoed throughout the atrium of Ayala Center Cebu when the stage screen opened in half to reveal the group’s rapper Felip (also known as Ken) during a mall show held Friday, April 11.

The Pagadian-born P-pop idol was the first major artist to perform at the mall’s Activity Center since it reopened after months of renovation. Opened just in time for Sinulog last January, the revamp features new interior layouts and the installation of a monolith LED screen that stretches from the first basement floor up to the fourth level.

With his name plastered on the towering LED wall during his set, Felip thanked organizers for bringing him to Cebu, where he could proudly speak in his native tongue.

During his half-hour set, he performed three tracks from his 7sins album — “sloth,” “ache” and “greed” — along with the standalone singles “fake faces” and “palayo,” all released under Warner Music Philippines.
