Ppop boy group, Alamat, whose members include Taneo, Mo, Jao, Tomas, R-Ji, and Alas, proudly wear Pinoy pride on their proverbial sleeves as heard and seen in the music video for their debut single called “kbye.”

From the name of their group, to the use of local languages in their lyrics and their heritage-filled aesthetics, Alamat promises to offer to audiences a proudly and uniquely Filipino experience that both entertains and boosts national pride.

The members of Alamat come from different parts of the country: Taneo from Kalinga, Mo from Zambales, Jao from Pampanga, R-Ji from Eastern Samar, Tomas from Albay, and Alas from Davao City. Hence, the lyrics of Alamat’s songs tend to be multilingual, as the group also aims to normalize the use of regional languages in mainstream music.

In the lyrics of their debut track, “kbye,” which the members wrote themselves, ALAMAT sings in a total of seven Philippine languages — Tagalog, Ilocano, Kapampangan, Bicolano, Waray-Waray, Hiligaynon, and Bisaya – definitely a first for any local pop group. Their debut will be just the beginning of an interesting musical journey that seeks to provide more than just entertainment.
