In an interview with Billboard Philippines, the “Multo” hitmakers delve into their monumental growth in recent years and who helped them get to this point. Sharing his insights, main vocalist Rapha Ridao attributes the band’s growth to their supporters, the “Joewahs,” “Siyempre, sa ating mga supporters, sa ating mga ‘Joewahs’. Kung wala kayo, wala kami dito, so thank you very much, guys. We love you!”
(Surely, we dedicate our growth to our supporters, to our “Joewahs.” If you weren’t here, we wouldn’t reach this point, so thank you very much, guys. We love you!)
