Filipino talents were on full display as BINI and BGYO performed their respective hits “Born To Win” and “The Baddest” as special guests in the Uplive Worldstage Global Singing Competition, which streamed worldwide via the Uplive app.

The two breakout P-pop groups from ABS-CBN sang and danced to their fans’ delight in the annual global singing tilt organized by Uplive, the largest independent global video social entertainment platform.

During the interviews before they took the stage, the girls and boys opened up about coping with the pandemic and their continuous rise in the music industry.

“It’s really hard as everything is done virtually. We can’t meet other people, our families, friends, and our supporters so we try to make ourselves available through social media. We do livestreams as well. We get to communicate and connect with them through that,” Aiah shared.

Their siblings in BGYO, meanwhile, are also doing well. “It has been amazing. We went through a lot of crazy things and we reached a lot of goals we never thought we would reach. We’re with the ACEs every day and I think we just appreciate everything that comes into our life,” Nate said.

Since their respective debuts, the two groups have been capturing the attention and hearts of music fans all over the world. Aside from both having music videos with millions of views on YouTube, BINI was also featured in MTV Asia last year while BGYO hit number one on Billboard’s global Next Big Sound chart.

Aside from BINI and BGYO, also raising the flag for the Philippines in the Uplive Worldstage Global Singing Competition is Grand Prize winner Harvey Dave Nino from Isabela province. The gifted 22-year-old singer and performer bested 19 other finalists who were chosen from thousands of competitors from 150 regions in the world.  He won a record deal, cash prize, and a hit song and video to be produced by a Grammy-winning producer.
