SHEILA'S Ilonggo+Pop+Life

Sheila & Ilonggo 3nity explodes in All Out Ilonggos

With the recent renaissance of Ilonggo music in 2010, the pride for Ilonggo pop culture is continuing in 2011 and beyond. In time for the most-awaited cultural celebration in the Philippines—the Dinagyang Festival--- rising Ilonggo music artists are set to entertain in the evening of January 22 at Iloilo Capitol Grounds with “All Out Ilonggos.” The non-stop musical event feature the independent album launching of the most promising Ilonggo rap group, All Out Kingz composed of Kudafie, Stan, Chaiz and female vocalist Mz. JT. All four members are involved in the Youth For Christ organization that inspired them to compose their first smash hit single “Changes” played both in Iloilo and Bacolod FM stations. Their second single “Anu Bala?” soon to have a music video is another potential Ilonggo rap song. Their 12-track album entitled “Ilonggo Para Sa Ilongga” is a fresh, dynamic and emotional journey of four young people searching for the true meaning of life, love and passion for culture.

Another Ilonggo pride is the Ilonggo 3nity composed of R&B sensation Reyn Callao, pop songstress Sheila Barrios and Cherry Callao. Reyn and Sheila are both nominated for Best Male and Female Artists at the first Ilonggo Music Awards 2010 of ABS-CBN Iloilo.

Their songs were the first-ever Ilonggo songs played in an Australian radio station.
