ANG hip-hop group na Ex Battalion pala ang kumanta with Alden Richard ng theme song ng upcoming GMA-7 prime-time teleserye fittingly billed Victor Magtanggol.
The group came into prominence by way of the hit song “Hayaan Mo Sila.”
“Ang bilis lang namin natapos ‘yung pag-record no’ng kanta kasi marunong siya. Hindi siya nahihirapan,” intoned Ex Battalion member Archie at the press conference of Viva Entertainment’s collaboration with the group, with Ai-Ai delas Alas no less.
Ginanap ang presscon sa Le Reve Pool and Events Place, sa Kyusi last Friday, June 1.
Archie noticed what a keen observer Alden was.
“Minsan nga siya pa ang nakapapansin na parang siya pa ‘yung, ‘May mali.’ Talagang alam mong naiintindihan niya kung ano ang ginagawa niya.”
Dagdag ni Mark, “At gusto niya. Gusto niya talaga. Saka ang pogi niya.”
Member Archie opined that writing the theme song for Alden’s upcoming project was a veritably humbling experience.
“Kasi dati no’ng walang naniniwala sa amin, magyayabang agad ako. Wala namang may paki sa ‘kin.
“No’ng ginawa namin ‘yon, galing sa malalaking tao ang compliment, para saan ba ba’t ka pa magyayabang?”
Sa pamamagitan ng partnership ng Viva with Ex Battalion and Ai-Ai as well, the entertainment company aimed at a collaboration that would benefit all of them.
“Ang grupo (Ex Battalion) and Miss Ai, nag-partner kami para makatulong sa pag-enhance ng kanilang career,” asseverated Viva Entertainment head Vincent del Rosario.
Idinagdag pa niyang magpo-produce raw sila ng pelikula na pangungunahan ng grupo at ni Ms. Ai. May mga nakaplano ring concerts para sa group.
And with that, ito po ang Kuya Pete ninyo na nagsasabing, Christopher, my son, I love you very, very much, my love for you goes beyond eternity.
Adios. Mabalos. I always need you, Nhong!
BANAT!
