Every cultural scene has its critics. There are the likes of food critics, movie critics, and book critics. But where are the music critics in the world of OPM? In this video, I discuss some thoughts as to why the serious kind of criticism in the Philippine music industry barely exists. And I also create a personal guide on dealing with criticism for the loyal fans, aspiring critics, and musicians of OPM.

Noong July 2019 gumawa ako ng Top 10 list. Dahil sa isang blockbuster, nabago nanaman ang listahan. At meron din akong ibang mali sa naunang Top 10. Kaya ito na yung latest edition!

*The Hows Of Us – Ipapaliwanag ko sa video yung isyu sa takilya nito.
**Beauty and the Bestie’s P526M number – Sources seem conflicted on whether this is the domestic number or overall total sales. But since this is the only reported number, we’ll stick with this.
^Starting Over Again’s true box office number is confusing since a lot of sites report it to be P410M but they seldom mention the $2M overseas sales. If we add $2M (P45-$1), then we arrive to an estimated P500M which then makes it 7th place. If we stick with the P410M, it goes back to 9th place.
^^It Takes a Man and a Woman’s number - If the Google data is correct: P405M (local) + $1.8M (international), then the estimated total would be P470M.

Regarding the song meanings, I feel like I got most of it wrong or inaccurately since, like I say in the review, the lyrics are not straightforward in meaning, thus it can be interpreted in different ways.
