Khalil Ramos showed off his versatility as an artist when he did an impromptu rendition of the Rivermaya ballad, “214”, during the Kapuso Brigade ZOOMustahan event.

The new Kapuso actor gamely entertained requests from fans to sing live during the chat.

Khalil's love for singing was evident at a young age.

He honed his skills further when he signed up for music lessons under the tutelage of Jay Glorioso of the UP Diliman College of Music and the prestigious Juilliard School.

“Actually, bata pa ako nun, I think mga 11 [or] 12 years old. Dun ako nagsimula magkaroon ng proper training sa pagkanta,” Khalil reminisced.

“Si Jay, actually, ay using theater actor. So, napapanood po siya sa mga musical Broadway shows, sa mga theater shows dito sa Pilipinas.

"Siya ang isa sa mga importanteng tao sa buhay ko dahil siya ang nakapagturo sa akin kung paano ko maabot 'yong potensyal ko bilang isang mang-aawit.”

He also answered the question of whether his decision to switched networks was largely influenced by his girlfriend, Gabbi Garcia.

“Si Gabbi siyempre from the very start naging main supporter ko siya. Ginauide niya ko sa desisyon na 'to,” said Khalil.

“Talagang tinulungan niya ko. 'Di siya naging pushy, kumbaga suporta lang.

"Hindi niya ko finu-forced na ganito ang gawin ko, ganito ang isipin ko - ganun 'yong dynamic namin talaga, nagtutulungan kami.

“From the start pa lang, February pa lang nung naisip kong magdesisyon for my career, all the way until two weeks ago, sobrang supportive [siya].”
