P-Pop star Josh Cullen has just dropped the official remix of 'Get Right' featuring Filipino rapper Yuridope. The SB19 member also recruited multi-talented producer Cursebox to help create a new sonic canvas that pushes the envelope of different genres.
Josh described his experience working with Cursebox: “Cursebox deconstructed the beat, experimenting with sounds and rhythms to breathe new life into the track. Throughout the process, we provided feedback, ensuring the arrangement aligned with our vision. In the end, Cursebox's unique touch added depth to the song, elevating it to new heights while respecting its roots."
He also complimented Yuridope's fast workflow: "The dude is not just talented; he is genuine. And that verse of his? It was like he blinked and boom, and it was done. Literal na naglabada lang. (He literally washed it out)."
He further explained: "This collaboration opens doors to new connections and possibilities, enriching our musical journey and expanding our reach. And with this remix, we're kicking off a larger journey, pioneering a unique sub-genre I'd like to call ‘hip-pop,’ which promises to bring even more innovation and excitement to the music scene.

Ylona Garcia is staying busy already. Already dropping a new single this year, she also gifts us with a new music video for "Entertain Me." The Filipino-Australian singer released a pop, sassy tune ahead of the launch for a new Filipino character in the video game, Valorant.
The music video brings us to the future to match the video game's aesthetic. Ylona channels her gammer side and we also catch a little bit of the new character, Neon who's out of this world.
The first character from Southeast Asia, Neon joins the team as Agent 19 who is voiced by Filipino voice actor Vanille Velasquez. "I am unbelievably honored, stoked and PROUD AF to announce that I am the voice of VALORANT Agent 19 NEON! This has been such a dream come true. I'm kind of at a loss right now. This doesn't feel real. I can't believe I'm really saying this right now." - Vanille Velasquez
Two Filipina women team up to create a strong Southeast Asian character in a global video game.
The track and music are fun and playful with a beat that has us dancing along. It's a different tempo from her last single, "Don't Go Changing," but just as catchy. What's not entertaining about playing your cards close in a relationship. Ylona hooks us in with this one.

Thank you to Apple Music for these amazing awards.”
H.E.R. equally had a monumental year from winning a Grammy to an Academy Award, she's been a pioneer in her craft.
