“It was such an honor for an international artist like Nik Qistina to have guested in my song after I did the duet with her for ‘Young Hearts’. It was nice that two people from different countries can work together and make beautiful music. I’m so excited about this collaboration which I hope will open more doors for me especially in Southeast Asia,” Espanto said.
