The Top Five contestants of “Idol Philippines,” Khimo Gumatay, Ryssi Avila, Kice, Ann Raniel, and Bryan Chong, feel blessed to have been part of the reality contest.
For Ryssi, the competition ultimately allowed her to rise above controversy.
“Nabago po ng ‘Idol’ ung buhay ko kasi sila yung nagbigay sa akin ng chance na ipakita yung talent ko sa mga tao,” she said.
The show made Kice closer to his loved ones.
“Yung family ko from all over the world, they connected even mga family members ko na hindi ko kilala, naglabasan because of the show,” he shared.
Ann and Bryan are also grateful for the opportunity that the show offered, finally allowing them to shine based on their talents.
Meanwhile, Kimo, this season’s grand winner, is thankful that people actually pushed him to join “Idol Philippines.”
“Actually po, nung una hindi po dapat ako sasali ng ‘Idol Philippines’ pero sa tulong po ng mga taong nakapaligid po sa’kin na mag-push po talaga na sumali dito. Ngayon po, I’m beyond thankful po na sumali po ako rito sa ‘Idol Philippines,'” he added.
The respective singles of the Top Five, namely, “My Time” by Khimo, “Totoo Na ‘To” by Ryssi, “Angels” by Kice, “Sa Wakas” by Bryan, “Power” by Ann, are now available on Spotify and other various music platforms.
Khimo thinks “My Time,” is a perfect vehicle for him as it is about believing that dreams do come true at the perfect time.
Same goes for Ryssi who shares that “Totoo Na ‘To” is quite inspirational as it is about breakthroughs after a season of doubt.
For Kice, “Angels” is about focusing on the good.
Meanwhile, Bryan is happy with “Sa Wakas” as it afforded him the chance to work with his idol Jonathan Manalo. “The Power” is perfectly made for Ann. She explained the piece is about rising above challenges.
