Here are five SB19 international collabs to add to your playlist

SB19 always has surprises up their sleeves, and international collaborations are no exception. 

The P-Pop Kings have dropped collaborations with artists from various parts of the world, giving their songs a whole new flavor.

While A’TIN waits for “Toyfriend” by SB19 and Be:First to officially drop, here are five of SB19’s international collaborations to add to your playlist.

‘Mapa (Indonesian version)’ featuring Aruma

SB19 collaborated with singer-songwriter Aruma for an Indonesian version of their hit track “Mapa”."

Aruma sings the first verse of the song, while Pablo, Stell, Ken, Josh, and Justin take turns singing in Bahasa. All the singers then harmonize together for the powerful song.

"Mapa" is one of the tracks in SB19's 2021 EP, "Pagsibol." 

 

‘Love Yours’ by Ohwon Lee

SB19 has also been featured in South Korean musician Ohwon Lee’s song, “Love Yours.”

In the pop song, the members sing verses about breathing away doubts and learning to love themselves.

“Love Yours” is part of Ohwon Lee's 2022 album “Real Recognize Real.”

 

‘Moonlight’ featuring Terry Zhong and Ian Asher

SB19 collaborated with US-based DJ Ian Asher and Chinese electronic producer Terry Zhong for the danceable EDM track “Moonlight."

The song features sensual lyrics about yearning for romance with their partner.

In a press statement, the group said working with Ian Asher and Terry Zhong was an inspiring experience.

“We’ve met Ian Asher during our tour in the US, and we were surprised at how talented and prolific he is at such a young age,” SB19 said in a press statement.

“This kind of music is new to us. The production is very current yet experimental, but it also gives us room to explore and expand our horizons as artists. The collaboration really brought out the best of all worlds, and being part of the process, really opened our creative realm to exciting new possibilities.”

 

‘Ready’ by Apl.De.Ap

SB19 and Apl.De.Ap also joined forces for a dance-pop track, “Ready,” in 2024.

The Black Eyed Peas member gives off his signature sound in the track, while the P-Pop Kings flex their individual voices as well as their smooth harmonies as a group.

“We never got the chance to record together in a single booth, but Apl.de.Ap was such a great guy to work with,” said Justin in a statement. “It’s an honor to collaborate with a global superstar of his caliber. We’ve learned so much from his generosity and creative feedback.”

Fellow member Stell was also ecstatic about the collaboration.

“It was something new for the group," he said. "We appreciate the chance to delve into new genres and production styles that come with unfamiliar territory. But with Apl.de.Ap at the helm of the creative process, we’re just blessed to take on this assignment. It’s not every day that you get to work with an artist you look up to.”

 

‘Golden Hour’ by JVKE

SB19 collaborated with JVKE for a remix of the latter's hit song, “Golden Hour.”

The P-pop band added a Filipino verse after the chorus, putting another spin on the viral song.

JVKE released "Golden Hour" in July 2022. It became a hit on TikTok and was followed by remixes from the likes of Fujii Kaze, Ruel, and milee.
