In a recent press conference, Jay R said that it was easy for him to say yes to do the concert with Kyla as they have been friends for two decades.

“I think it's super self-explanatory na for me to say yes to the concert. I'm a big fan of Kyla, and Kyla and I have been friends for 20 years na and singing together for that long.

“It was easy for me to say yes. Even before the question was done, I was saying yes already. They were like 'Do you want to do a show?' and I'm like 'Yes, go, game. Let's go,'” he said.

According to the Filipino-American singer, he and Kyla will be performing around 30 songs at their reunion concert.

“We're doing a lot. We want to make sure that the show is very sulit sa fans, especially kasi this is a 20-year reunion after so long kaya I don't know, probably like 30 songs or something like this.

“I mean not full songs ha, 'yung iba naka-medley. But when you count everything, it's probably around 30,” he shared.

The “Back In Time: Kyla and Jay R The Reunion Concert” is presented and produced by GNN Pop and co-presented by Cornerstone Entertainment.
