Worldwide Sensation Pink Sweat$ Celebrates His Latest His Latest Album, "Pink Planet" With Smash Collab With Filipina Singer/Icon Moira Dela Torre

Pink Sweat$, regarded as Philadelphia, USA’s own rising superstar, is earning his stripes and proving that every bit of praise and acclaim is in its rightful place, with his recent release of both the single and music video for “Heaven,” one of the featured tracks from his latest full-length album Pink Planet, which arrived last February 2021.

Released under Atlantic Records, Pink Planet is a collection of six previously released stellar singles off of his 2020 EP The Prelude and eight brand new tracks, including “Heaven” which drips of sensual melodies from “Mr. Love” himself (a moniker his legion of fans have since called him…) and the music video, as expected, is simply an awesome visual treat. In fact, Pink Planet highlights much-needed light and love after a rough year that was 2020: “with a purpose to heal and gift fans with much-needed good vibes, and to talk about highs, lows, fears and successes.”

Wise Investments for the post-pandemic world

The pandemic has indeed forced everyone to make wiser financial decisions. People nowadays need to ensure that they make the right investments for the unforeseeable future.

As with any expense though, choosing what to invest in requires some good financial decision-making. Remember that whatever is bought and saved for now should also be useful once this pandemic is finally over.  Here’s a quick helpful guide for potential investors:

For your health

Avail of a healthcare insurance package that covers consultation and laboratory fees, and of course, treatment for various conditions. This is especially important now because of the COVID 19 global health emergency. Those insured will continue to reap the benefits giving them peace of mind as well as health security.

All types of home business

2020 was a precarious year as many lost their jobs and source of livelihood due to the pandemic. This is the reason why many have started home businesses, maximizing the use of e-commerce sites and social media just to make ends meet. The good thing with this is, once the home business becomes successful, then that can be another source of income for the family.

A trusty laptop or PC

Since working and schooling from home has become the new norm for most Filipinos, many have started purchasing a laptop or a full PC setup to be able to fulfill their everyday tasks. If maintained well, these gadgets will serve everyone in the household, even when one is not working at home anymore.

An investment in jewelry

Authentic fine jewelry is indeed an investment because of its price but it is also a good asset to have as it appreciates in value over time, and can also be passed down to one’s kids and grandkids.

Availing of these fine jewelry is no longer out of reach as Cebuana Lhuillier Jewelry makes it much easier for Filipinos to invest in it.

James Arthur makes a huge comeback with autobiographical single ‘Medicine’

Fresh from the huge global success of his song ‘Train Wreck’, English singer-songwriter James Arthur returns with his brand new single ‘Medicine’.

“Medicine” is boldly autobiographical. The track was the very first song James wrote during his first writing session for the new album.

James says, “Medicine is an uplifting ode to self, to relationships, to community and connection, and to the healing, restorative powers of love over adversity. It is, you might say, the perfect song for spring 2021.”

“The last year has forced any couple to look at themselves. It held a mirror up to us all, didn’t it? And my partner was hugely supportive through that whole time. There are some pretty dark lyrics in there: ‘When I’m suicidal, you don’t let me spiral…’”

Celebrating the #WomenOfLRT1

Every year around the world, March 8 is celebrated as the International Women’s Day serving as a tribute, a platform, and a call for concrete, sustainable, and inclusive actions towards gender equality. At the height of the global pandemic, many women frontliners bravely took on the challenge of playing important roles in helping the country navigate through the new normal. Displaying resilience amidst unsettling conditions and determination to continue providing quality service despite tougher struggles, women have continuously shown power to lead and thrive even in a difficult situation.

Within the Light Rail Manila Corporation (LRMC), many female team members have proven their strength to overcome personal challenges and continue to excel in a rather male-dominated industry. In support of Philippine Commission on Women (PCW)’s #WomenMakeChange theme for 2021 National Women’s Month Celebration, here are some stories about the #WomenOfLRT1 to inspire and empower more women to be agents of change.
