SB19 enters the Hall of Fame

Looking back, SB19 penetrated VP Choice Awards in 2019. The quintet became one of the contenders and, soon, the winner of the Group Performer of the Year. They celebrated the achievement by gracing the pioneer VPCA live ceremony to accept their prize.
Following their first victory, SB19 was nominated for two more years in the same recognition and won. Their three consecutive triumphs in the accolade marked a grand slam. Alike, A’TIN followed the trail for securing the Fandom of the Year award thrice in a row.
Hence, SB19 received its Hall of Fame trophies, another first time in the history of the VP Choice Awards. It serves as a token of their entrance into the elite circle.

Besides their past wins, SB19 also dominated the 4th VP Choice Awards. Overall, the Billboard Top Social Artist 2021 contender gained three of the most coveted nominations under the music category.
In particular, the group leader Pablo, or John Paulo Nase, obtained the nomination for Composer of the Year. He wrote the dance electro-pop track Where You At (WYAT), which tackles reconnecting with people and reminiscing good things in the past.
