The Kings of P-pop, SB19, have announced their return with their upcoming single titled “VISA.” While details like the track’s release date have not yet been announced (watch this space for updates), the group uploaded a short preview of the track on their official TikTok account.
In the short preview heard online, Pablo’s heard singing a verse, “Tandang tanda ko pa nung araw humiling / Sa bulalakaw ay nag bang bang bang / Balang araw ako ayo titingalain / Kasi kaya ako ay magaling.” (I still remember that day I made a wish / Shooting stars going bang, bang, bang.
Someday, they’ll look up to me / Because I know I’m good at what I do.)
The song then jumps straight into the chorus, “Kahit at wala pa ring dating / Kahit na ano pa ang gawin / Baka naman kailangan lang ng bisa / Kaya to follow na lang rin yung visa / Hay, deny deny deny denied!” (Even if it still hasn’t made an impact / No matter what I do / Maybe I just need a little power / So the visa will be marked as ‘to follow’ / Sigh, deny, deny, deny, denied!)
With hints posted on the members’ social media accounts, it’s been speculated that the song airs out the frustration towards the difficulty Filipinos face when applying for visas for travel.
SB19’s latest musical release prior to this fresh single is their well-acclaimed EP, Simula At Wakas, which was released on April 25, 2025. Following the release of this EP, Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken, and Justin then went on to break records and perform in stages across the globe for their ‘Simula At Wakas‘ World Tour.
