"Maybe mostly because I'm very authentic in writing my songs. I think yun yung pinaka-nagpapakita sa kanila that they can relate to my songs. And I'm just really glad that I'm not alone sa mga sinusulat ko," he told The STAR in an interview.
A Gen Z himself, the young artist is elated that he has become part of the lives of this generation.
"A lot of them made me feel like in the new generation of OPM, it's a huge thing. It's like the new generation is rooting for you. In the coming years, I couldn't imagine that they would still remember me but I'm just really glad that you know I'm being part of their lives, now that they are teenagers," he mused.
He hoped that even when they get old, this generation would still remember him.
Following the successful release of Dilaw, he went on to churn out other hits, such as Namumula, Bughaw, and other tracks.
