Hev Abi and the Downtown Q’ crew officially kicked off the Sobrang Downtown Philippine Tour at the Bicol Loco Hot Air Balloon and Music Festival. In this special show, he teamed up with his fellow Downtown Q’ Entertainment talents — Nazty Kidd, Unotheone, Simmo, and LK — to deliver the full downtown experience to Legazpi, Bicol.
In an official press release, the hit-making rapper shared, “Mas importante sakin na maramdaman kami ng tao. Gusto ko dalhin ‘yung music ko, mga sina-soundtrip ko, maipakilala kami sa iba’t ibang mga dulo ng Pinas.” (“It’s more important for me that we’re felt by people. I want to bring my music and the music I soundtrip and introduce ourselves to the entire Philippines.”)
Well-celebrated for his addictive melodies and viral live performances, it has been noted that Hev Abi sees the tour as more than just a set of shows, but rather as an opportunity to meet his fans across the country in person. It’s notable to add that each show has been directed by the emcee himself.
The Sobrang Downtown Philippine Tour was initially teased earlier this year on April 15, shortly following the conclusion of his his Canada tour that kicked off last March 28 in Winnipeg, and held its last leg on April 12 in Edmonton.
In related news, in spite of the song originally being debuted in 2022, Hev Abi’s “PWEDE BANG” currently stands at the No. 50 position of the Billboard Philippines Hot 100 (dated June 14, 2025). The song initially made its entry at No. 80 on the week of May 24, 2025, and has since then been climbing the Chart.
