Def Jam Philippines, considered as one of the most respected record labels in the country, returns with a game-changing posse cut featuring some of the most important rap acts of our time.
“Puso At Diskarte,” the first single off the label’s second compilation EP, RHAPSODICITY, brings together veteran and rising Filipino hip-hop artists such as ASTRO of Owfuck, ZARGON, HONCHO of Ex-Battalion, DCOY (Wakin Burdado) of Madd Poets, MIKE KOSA of 187 Mobstaz, PRICETAGG and LAYZIE FU of 4 East Flava on the same page—each offering distinct expertise and star power to the mix.
Produced by CURSEBOX, the anthemic banger delivers show-stopping verses that set the bar high for hip-hop collaborations, and massive, titanium-grade beats that blur the boundaries between gangsta rap and contemporary urban music.
Huawei continues its Freebuds line with the Freebuds 4 which seems not far in terms of design yet has indeed shown upgrades to the previous features. As part of the Huawei ecosystem, it is important that earbuds should also mirror the innovations of the new releases such as the mate series, tablets, and more.
For this new phase of the Huawei Freebuds, it continues its aesthetic of having a round case as the most practical and most optimized shape to help in charging, connection, and also in grip use.
Available in two colors, silver frost and ceramic white, it keeps it simple for those choosing polar colors as preferences. The case is also slightly smaller compared to its predecessors which is hardly noticed unless you compare it with measurements. Though I would also love that they can have it in black and red like in the previous versions.
As we settle into the -ber months, it’s time to start thinking of your Christmas list. If you’re at a loss as to how to spread joy to your loved ones during the holidays amidst a pandemic, who better to ask for advice than one of the Philippines’ Christmas icons, Jose Mari Chan?
The musician, who has been Shopee’s Christmas ambassador since 2018, shares that the important thing is to imbue the true spirit of Christmas. “This pandemic may have completely changed our shopping habits, but one thing remains the same—every chance you get to show kindness, do so. Whatever you give doesn't have to be a big amount.”

| Aligned with Amaia Land’s goal of upgrading the lives and lifestyles of Filipinos, the real estate developer is expanding Amaia Scapes Bulacan to make more modern and affordable homes available to prospective homeowners in Bulacan. |
While millions of Filipinos long to return to their prepandemic lives, transitioning to normalcy continues to be an elusive prospect, especially with the more transmissible Delta variant causing a surge of new cases in the country.
Still, despite the uncertainties this engenders, trusted real estate brand Amaia Land remains constant in its goal to upgrade the lives and lifestyles of Filipinos with affordable high-quality housing all over the country. ss
For one, Amaia Land is expanding its Amaia Scapes Bulacan project, a 20.4-hectare development located along Sta. Maria-Pandi Road in Barangay Manggahan and Sta. Cruz, Bulacan. The development currently comprises four sectors but an ongoing expansion, set to last until 2023, will make more Amaia Scapes dwellings available to a vast market of aspiring homeowners who want to escape from the congested metropolis and settle down in healthier environs like Bulacan.
Lyrically speaking, there is no set thematic agenda when the acclaimed singer-songwriter conceptualized and penned Back To The Middle. In an authentic troubadour fashion, Estepa lets the song take him to where it wants to go most of the time. “But by the end I did notice a leaning towards the idea of letting go and acceptance,” Estepa shares in a statement. “Life throws us curveballs that we may not want or see coming, but then we ask ourselves how do we deal with them? There’s always a slither of light ahead.”
Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, introduces its newest brand ambassador, Kim Chiu, alongside the launch of the 10.10 Brands Festival, its biggest brands sale of the year. The famous actress, dubbed the Princess of Philippine Movies and TV, will feature in Shopee’s new TV commercial and many exciting in-app activities.
Fresh from the success of her directorial debut My Amanda in July, Alessandra de Rossi is now setting her sights on different waters. This time around it’s music, which she’s revisited more vigorously as of late: adopting the functional moniker ADR, reissuing her 2012 debut Adrift via Lilystars Records, even penning songs for her films.
The difference is it’s other people’s music now. And no, De Rossi isn’t simply pimping playlists or fawning over new discoveries on her socials. She’s taking things a notch higher, putting up her own label AWOOO Records, which she’s formally unveiling to the public today (September 24) after making an under-the-radar announcement earlier in the month.
To the character-actress-turned-indie-darling, it’s not so much about scratching a visionary itch but passing deserving talents the mic. “I think [Filipinos] really stand a chance in changing how the world looks and sounds,” she says, confident that local music can enjoy the same attention other art forms like cinema are getting. “All we need is to offer something pure, peculiar, and distinct. I think we can make it, too!”
Social Media sensation Daisy Lopez or more known as Madam Inutz, is now a recording artist with her debut single "Inutil"
This was made possible with the guidance of former Mr. Gay World titlist, businessman, and philanthropist, Wilbert Tolentino who served as her angel and mentor to make her dream a reality.
From her humble beginnings as a live seller, she is now a certified recording artist. This made Wilbert or Kuya Will proud of his talent.
“Meron siyang unique na raspy voice. Bagay sa kanya ang mga Novelty, Rap, Hiphop, Rock, lalong-lalo ang mga Tunog Kalye. Bagay sa kanya ang mga estilo nila Sampaguita, Aegis, o Up Dharma Down." he said.
“Mabilis niyang natutunan ang mga melody ng kanta at kaya niyang baguhin ang atake ayon sa kanyang style. Sobrang professional at walang reklamo sa oras, kahit inabot ng madaling araw sa pag-shoot ng music video.” he added.
Huawei hosted the Energy Summit online, which was held within the framework of HUAWEI CONNECT 2021 and themed "Digital Energy, Powering the Low Carbon Era". During the summit, customers and partners discussed best practices in using new technologies to transition the energy industry toward carbon neutrality. Huawei also released the Global Energy Transition and Zero Carbon Development White Paper and shared its Energy Trans-Cube Strategy.
Energy Trans-Cube, Creating New Value for the Industry
After signing the Paris Agreement in 2015, more countries than ever before are committed to carbon neutrality and are taking positive actions to address climate change. Each one follows a different path, suitable to its resource profile, energy, and environment. "Despite the strong will to go carbon neutral, we need to take into account three challenges: green and low carbon development, economic development, as well as the security and continuity of energy supply. The convergence of energy transformation and digital transformation will pave the digital way for carbon neutrality," said David Sun, Vice President of Huawei Enterprise BG and President of the Global Energy Business Unit. He added, "Huawei has developed a Trans-Cube methodology. It suggests that to get closer to a net-zero carbon intelligent energy system and achieve global zero-carbon development, we should build three core capabilities — net-zero carbon transformation, energy transformation, and digital transformation."
