home grown talent: KZ Tandingan

I'm not pretty sure if this local talent received enough buzz around the Philippine music industry for a number of years. IMHO, artists should be hanging around the music scene as long as they can. I noticed new materials and song concepts are released every 3rd or 4th quarter of the year. Why is that?

As far as I can remember, KZ hasn't been buzz worthy here in our music industry since her breakthrough from X Factor Philippines Season 1. Yeah, she got her fair share last 2012, released a self-titled debut album "KZ Tandingan" in 2013, and after that, never heard anything new from her. Will she be a one-hit wonder? Time will tell. I can sense how pressured she is at these times, or maybe not. After winning in a game show* (with pot money, and all that), who else would feel pressured. Good for her.

KZ is into Acoustic Jazz, R&B, and Soul.

Just want to share her rhythm, so we can all move into her music!

This music you'll be listening to on the link below is also featured from the Tagalog movie adaptation of the book Bakit Hindi Ka Crush ng Crush Mo (Why your Crush doesn't have a Crush on you) written by Ramon Bautista**, who popularized TFFZ (Tales From the Friend Zone). He showcased trending failures of Filipino teens who get smacked in their faces after hearing this famous Friend Zone last words from their, well, Best Friends.
