Ranking seventh on the list is the multiethnic collective of ALAMAT. The group earned recognition for its nationalistic approach to creating music, as reflected in their hits kasmala, Maharani, and Aswang. WatchMojo further praised the sextet for tackling colonialism, referencing ancient legends, and using diverse local languages in their songs.
Next to claim a spot on the global ranking is the five-piece ensemble BGYO. At number five, the members gained acknowledgment for their skills and youthful spirit that embodied their commitment to “becoming the change” and “going further.” WatchMojo also applauded their eagerness to “take their culture and signature style worldwide.”
On the other hand, SB19 acquired the highest ranking as they clinched the second spot. WatchMojo said the quintet is ready for world domination for not only promoting P-pop but also making history as Southeast Asian icons. Additionally, the formation’s contribution to putting Pinoy talent on the mainstream map made them deserving of the title “Filipino Gamechangers.”
With these three P-Pop groups making waves internationally, it’s evident that the Philippine music scene is on the rise.
