Piolo Pascual proud of his son's Billboard PH success

-


Actor Piolo Pascual couldn't be prouder of his son singer-model Inigo Pascual who topped the first Billboard Philippine chart recently.

This means that Inigo earned the distinction of being the first Filipino singer to reach No. 1 on the country's debut rankings reflecting local music consumption.

Inigo's "Dahil Sa'Yo" topped the debut of the Billboard Philippine Top 20 chart for the week of June 19, 2017.

In second place is "Sila" by Sud. Holding at Nos. 3 and 4 are the songs by Jona entitled "Pusong Ligaw," and  "Maghihintay Ako," respectively.

Other songs in the Top 10 are "Pasensya Ka Na," Silent Sanctuary, No. 5; "Mobe," Enrique Gil (6); "Hiling," Mark Carpio (7); "Hanggang Kailan," Michael Pangilinan (8); "Tulad Mo," TJ Monterde (9); and "No Games" (featuring King Badger & Skusta Clee," (10).


Piolo said that he is very proud of his son's achievement.

"Couldn't be prouder. What a milestone my son has achieved - the very first @billboard_ph and he's up at #1. Congrats champ! Way to go son! To God be the glory!" said Piolo on his Instagram post recently.

The Billboard chart is considered the "Bible" of music surveys since it published its first music hit parade in the US in 1936.


"Pangarap ko lang dati na maging parte ng Billboard charts. At sakto first time nagkaroon ng Billboard Charts dito sa Philippines. God is always good. When you use passion to motivate you and when you're positive and thankful everything coming your way, the most unexpected things will happen," said Inigo on IG post.

Billboard PH editor Francis Reyes explained why it took months for the local charts to be developed. It was launched last June 12, 2017.

"Very simply, because they have to be right as our parent company Billboard itself has been doing music industry charts since 1940," Reyes said.


Reyes also explained how the songs are ranked in the survey every week.

1) Data are based on song streams, digital downloads, and video plays. The data sources approved by Billboard US are Apple Music, Spotify, and YouTube.

2) The data from the aforementioned sources are collated, weighted, and averaged by Nielsen Music which has worked with Billboard since 1991 and is a leading global provider of consumer info and insights.

3) BillboardPH organizes the summarized data into the localized charts: The Philippine Hot 100 Chart that includes both local and foreign acts; The Philippine Top 20 Chart will list only Filipino artists; and The Catalog Chart will list songs that are older than three years but are still being constantly streamed, viewed, and downloaded. - ROBERT REQUINTINA

Kapamilya star Diego Loyzaga has admitted that he is reaching out to his father chief operating officer of Tourism Promotions Board Cesar Montano but he doesn't know if his dad knew that he was making the move. "Oo I am. Pero I don't even know kung alam n'ya. During the Christmas party of ABS CBN last year, I was with Tito Bayani (Agbayani). E magkapitbahay silang dalawa. And even Tito Bayani was telling me hindi na n'ya nakikita si Erpat. Lagi s'yang busy. Sinabi ni Tito Bayani, 'why don't you just text him?' "said Diego, when asked if he's reaching out to his father, during an interview on "Tonight With Boy Abunda" on ABS CBN. "Sabi ko, 'why not?' Nanghihinayang ako eh.

Why not my father?; "Nanghihinayang lang ako. Sa kont

Her complete post: "We are sleep-deprived & the noise is stressful for me, my husband and and my children when we are home, that living in a beautiful building that has its own hotel and restaurants (and that cost more than what I sold our Wack-Wack house for!?!) still makes us all want to move out and check into a nearby hotel or transfer to a house or another condo!; "I understand how uncomfortable it is for a homeowner to have to do some construction in his own property and know he’s inconveniencing and bothering neighbors; "I am usually very understanding.
