Looking Back At Mainstage With Letters From The OPM Scene

Last week, the biggest names in Philippine music came together to celebrate OPM at Billboard Philippines: Mainstage.

As we celebrated the first anniversary of Billboard Philippines, it marked a historic moment that platformed Filipino artistry — showcasing an unparalleled assembly of talent that highlighted the rich tapestry of the local music scene. Bringing together musical acts from varying genres and generations reflected the immense diversity of what our musicians can offer, whether it comes from rock, hip-hop, ballads, or the growing P-pop scene.

What music fans witnessed onstage was a gathering that not only entertained those in attendance, but also celebrated the cultural significance of OPM on a grander scale than ever. Because as the synergy among the performers exemplified, it was a moment of unity that transcended individual styles and genres — marking a defining milestone for Filipino artists.

Prior to their highly anticipated onstage performances, Billboard Philippines caught up with each of these artists, as they took a moment to reflect on their journey and commitment to the scene. Backstage, they signed a special dedication in our Mainstage Yearbook — sharing endearing and heartfelt messages that must be seen to be believed.
