MUSIC LYF: Johnoy Danao Launches Samu't Sari Under Universal Records

From his maintream debut at PhilPop, Johnoy Danao is now penetrating the mainstream music industry, and I think he deserves more spotlight being a talented singer-composer who loves what he is doing and makes his own style of music. 

Johnoy has also a large following online with rave reviews about his music which should be discovered by the public. Now with the launch of "Samu't Sari", the public can get to know about him and his acoustics.

Dubbed as the must-have OPM album of the year, Johnoy Danao’s first mainstream album Samu’t-Sari boasts of songs that tackle love in its different faces. This is Johnoy’s first album under a major record label, and he chose Universal Records to take care of his songs.

REEL DEAL: Taylor Kinney The Other Man In “THE OTHER WOMAN”

Comedic talent Leslie Mann plays Kate, happily married to Mark (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) ...or so she thinks. It turns out that her husband has been conducting an affair with Carly, (Cameron Diaz) a successful lawyer. The women strike up an unlikely friendship, before making another discovery: this lying rogue has in fact been three-timing them—with the young and very sexy Amber (Kate Upton) in “The Other Woman.”

In the movie, the three plot revenge, and in the process learn about themselves and what they really want in life.  The three women don’t appear to have much in common, other than the philandering womanizer who has been tricking them. They become great pals, however, and decide to teach the lying Mark a few lessons to prove that cheating will not work. But their journey goes way beyond straightforward revenge.  From director Nick Cassavetes, the hilarious film is an original take on friendship and relationships.

REEL DEAL: The Amazing Spider-Man 2 REVIEW

This movie premiered in the Philippines on my birthday April 30 which many marvel films also make their opening day in the country. Though I was not able to see it on my actual birthday, I am happy to see one of the most successful comic book movie franchise.

Though I am a big fan of the previous trilogy, I love the sequel of this reboot more than the first one.  With the new story focusing on Peter Parker's history and his early years, including his first love Gwen Stacy. 

The sequel brings the mystery behind Peter's parents who were associated with OSCORP which has been linked to the enemies of spidey. The movie is also brings three villains like Electro, Green Goblin and Rhino into a single movie. Expect a lot of action and explosions with this sequel as action scenes become more intense and moving with the fast paced fighting. I felt so disturbed and amazed at the same time which made me want to see the next movie now!

REEL DEAL: Dallas Buyers Club REVIEW

With oscars over, the spotlight are now with the nominees of the Academy Awards or Oscars. One of which was DALLAS BUYERS CLUB starring Mattew McConaughey, Jared Leto and Jennifer Garner. Like most of the oscar nominees, it is a period movie set in the mid 80s about Ron Woodrof who was diagnosed with HIV and was given a month to live.

But Ron was determined to live and will do anything to survive. He went to extremes with unapproved medicines, trying treatments overseas etc. But the interesting part is how he made his treatment an opportunity for him to do business and set up the "Dallas Buyers Club". The topic of HIV/AIDS is actually just the tip of the iceberg as many characters becomes involved in this booming business.

Directed by Jean-Marc Vallée and written by Craig Borten and Melisa Wallack, Dallas Buyers Club is also a comeback movie of Jared Leto to acting after a 5 year hiatus. The thing that is a shocker to everyone is the disturbing weight loss of Ron (McConaughey) and Rayon (Leto) which is unbelievably thin and brings scary truth of the effects of drugs and the HIV/AIDS complications.
