BAGUIO CITY – Nasa Pilipinas na muli ang US-born Filipino singer na si Yaj.
Sa naging exclusive interview ng 89.5 Star FM Baguio kay Yaj, ibinahagi nito na bilang isang singer-songwriter, gusto niyang mas maging “diverse” pa ang kanyang mga maisusulat na kanta at lalo pang mapansin ang OPM sa world music genre.
“My ultimate goal in my music career individually is to be different from other artists, to show that I am different. I don’t want to stick to one genre. I want to have many songs and many genres – meron sa rap, meron din sa rock, RNB, jazz, and other stuff like that. I wanna be that kind of artist na ‘Kaya niya rin pala yan’. Also, as a music contributor in the community, I want OPM from the north to be present and highlighted din sa Metro Manila. I also want OPM to be competitive po sa American pop or K-pop. That’s the goal, global OPM,” saad nito.
Ibinida rin nito sa music video ng kanyang latest single na “PBRTO” ang Lungsod ng Baguio na kanyang hometown.
Dagdag nito, “I really wanted to give back to Baguio City. It is where I wrote my collection of tagalog songs and ‘PBRTO’ is the first one to come up. I wanted to give back to the city that made me. It really shaped me to be the musician I am today. I do plan to stay here in Baguio, dito sa Philippines to pursue my music career. “
