YARA’s contemporary spin on “Bakit Papa?” is co-produced by the reliable hitmaker Thyro Alfaro, responsible for some of the most memorable chart-toppers of the last decade, including hits by Sarah Geronimo, James Reid, and Sam Concepcion.
Alfaro worked with John Paul Soliva on the arrangement and Niño of Popinoy on the production side, all while carefully considering the artistic direction that YARA wanted to achieve for this particular track.
The result is an R&B bop that is just as captivating and exciting as the original but distinctly aligns with the Filipino girl group’s brand of sass.
YARA takes pride in being more involved in the creative aspects of music-making. In “Bakit Papa,” they worked closely with Sony Music Entertainment to bring their vision into reality. “From styling to choreography, from developing promotional strategies to executing the material, we collaborated with our label to ensure that we get the best possible results,” says the ADDA artist.
The release of “Bakit Papa?” comes with a performance video that highlights the unapologetic fierceness of the song. The visuals also feature choreography that adds a sensual dimension to the mix while delivering fun and nostalgia simultaneously.
YARA is a four-piece girl group composed of Gelou, Rocher, Christa, and Kim. They are one of the newest P-Pop acts under Sony Music Entertainment, which includes top-prized talents such as SB19 and 4th Impact.
