Zack Tabudlo has released a brand new single, titled “For You.”
The newly released track sees the beloved Filipino singer-songwriter leaning into the bedroom R&B and soft rock sounds, as he croons about a significant other in English. “[I] waited a long time for this new song,” said Tabudlo regarding the single on his official social media accounts in his announcement post of its release. Together with the track’s release on digital and streaming platforms worldwide, Tabudlo also released an emotionaly lyric video which can be viewed in its entirety below.
“For You” marks the fourth single that Tabudlo has released over the past year, following “Naguguluhan,” “MANLOLOKO,” and “Diving” –– with the latter being his first release under Universal Music Group US’ Mercury Records. In addition to his singles, he also wrote and produced the track “TANGA” for P-pop group KAIA. “It’s a dream come true talaga kasi ang tagal na talaga naming fans ni Zack,” said KAIA’s Charlotte regarding the process of working with the hitmaker. “…Nung nag-reach out siya sa amin dahil meron siyang kanta na sinulat na para sa amin talaga, grabe ‘yung feeling na maka-work ‘yung idol namin at mabigyan ka ‘nya ng learnings din. Hindi lang siya basta work lang; may nabuo kaming friendship,” she continued.
(“It’s really a dream come true because we’ve been fans of Zack for a long time. When he reached out to us because he had written a song specifically for us, the feeling of being able to work with our idol and be given learnings from him was something else. It wasn’t just work; we formed a friendship.”)
It’s been a while since Tabudlo has released a full-length project, as in 2024, he released another string of singles — including “Isa, Dalawa, Tatlo,” “Feel This Way,” “Papalayo,” and “Pulso.” His third studio album, 3rd Time’s A Charm, was released in November 2023 and spawned the hit singles “Pano” and “Gusto” featuring Al James. Also in 2024, Tabudlo’s debut album Episode was finally reissued in the vinyl format for its fourth anniversary, being released on a new set of limited edition colorways such as purple and white vinyl.
