WRIVE are turning up the energy in the new visualizer for their latest single, “Sumayaw Ka.”

Released on September 12, 2026, the visualizer sees members Drei, Asi, Russu, Mathew, and Ishiro bringing their playful energy to the reimagined version of Gloc-9‘s OPM hip-hop classic of the same title. The video captures the five-piece act dancing and playing around in a bare room dressed in cool, denim ensembles.

The visualizer moves between high and low-angle shots, creating a CCTV-inspired perspective as WRIVE shift between full-group formations and individual member frames. Flashy, glitch-inspired edits add to the track’s modern atmosphere, matching the song’s groove and upbeat contemporary pop treatment.

WRIVE’s rendition of “Sumayaw Ka” was unveiled on September 4, 2026, featuring singer and television host Cianne Dominguez. The track pays homage to one of Gloc-9’s most recognizable tracks while giving it a fresh P-pop makeover. Originally released in 2007, “Sumayaw Ka” carries an uplifting message about pushing through life’s challenges, with its invitation to dance serving as a metaphor for continuing despite setbacks.

Produced by Darren Cashwell and WRIVE member Russu, their rendition brings a modern pop treatment to a hip-hop classic while retaining its feel-good, motivational spirit.

The release comes shortly after Russu represented WRIVE alongside fellow P-pop group VVINK at the Philippine Selection Night on August 31, 2026. The two P-pop acts performed “Round N’ Round,” their entry for the selection of the Philippines’ representative to the Eurovision Song Contest Asia 2026.

WRIVE are managed under ABS-CBN Polaris Management and signed under Star Music. The five-member act officially debuted on July 16, 2025 and released their self-titled debut album, WRIVE, in January 2026, featuring tracks including  “Ooh La La,” “Señorita,” and “Panaginip Na Lang.”
