Singer-actor JK Labajo has released his album, Sad Songs and Bulls***: Part 1.

The Senior High star, 22, talked about his latest project in an Instagram post on September 26, saying that Sad Songs started as a compilation of love songs that I “made for someone who I gave so much of myself to.”

“A collection of all the words I wrote and the melodies that came along with it. Eventually, things didn’t turn out the way I hoped for. The songs started to not make any sense. all the songs for love turned into songs for sadness. For me at least, they just became a bunch of bulls**t. Hence, Sad Songs and Bulls**t,” he explained.

According to JK, Sad Songs started out with 18 songs. “But then we’ve decided to divide them into two parts so everyone has time to digest each track. Part 2 will come in early next year,” he said.

The first part contains nine tracks: "Sad Songs and Bulls**t," "ERE," "may halaga pa ba ako sayo??," "Manhid," "Paruparo," "Gabi," "Time Machine," "Lumisan," and "Tapusin Na Natin To," which features Ben&Ben’s Paolo Benjamin.

“Thank you to everyone who became a part of this crazy adventure. I am forever grateful,” he wrote.

“With love from me to you, welcome to Sad Songs and Bulls***.”

In June 2022, JK confirmed that he and beauty queen-model Maureen Wroblewitz had split up after six years of dating. He made the revelation in a message for his ex-girlfriend on Facebook, which read, “Lagi mong tandaan na kahit pagbaliktarin mo man ang mundo, kahit saang lupalop man ng kalawakan, ikaw pa rin ang nag-iisa kong buwan.”

“Maraming salamat, mahal kita, at hanggang sa muli.”

Despite the breakup, JK stressed that he and Maureen are on good terms.

“I just want what’s best for her and that she’s happy,” he said in an interview with PEP.

On whether he is open to dating again, he said, “Yeah, of course naman. But at the same time, it’s always nice to just focus on the people around you, your family and your career. Masaya ako sa sitwasyon ko sa buhay ngayon.”

Currently, JK stars in the mystery-thriller Senior High as Gino.
