🎶 Historic Milestone for P‑Pop and OPM
SB19 — composed of Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken, and Justin — will take to the iconic Grant Park stages as part of this year’s Lollapalooza lineup, joining global superstars such as Charli XCX, Tate McRae, Lorde, Olivia Dean, and BLACKPINK’s Jennie.
This marks a major breakthrough for P‑Pop (Pinoy pop) and Original Pilipino Music (OPM) on the international stage, placing Filipino artistry among the world’s leading music acts and expanding the global footprint of Philippine entertainment.
