After Philpop announced the 12 finalists last April 30th, recording of each song began. And finally, the interpreters were revealed today in front of sponsors, media and bloggers.
The interpreters were chosen hand in hand with Universal Records and the finalists. What's cool about this year's album production is that not only Universal Records who had some of their artists be part of it but also other record labels like MCA, PolyEast and Warner Music also lend their own line-up of artists. Talk about unifying for one cause -- and that is to uplift and strengthen our own music.
Starting June 5, Philpop has open its text voting to the public for the Smart People's Choice Award. It's open to all Smart, Talk and Text and Sun subscribers (P1 per text).
Here are the artists who interpreted each song --
