Blessing ‘yon. For me maganda to promote my songs. Gusto ko din promote Pilipinas,” he said in an interview during the recent We Play Here school tour at the University of the Philippines in Quezon City.</p><p>The balladeer believes that each local stop he has made so far further ignited his passion for the craft as well as sparked fresh ideas for new music.</p><p>“Super fun doing tours. Ang dami ko napupuntahan na city. Nagkakaroon ako ng opportunity to talk to fans, bond with them. Nakaktuwa, sobrang saya. Nagkakaroon ako ng inspiration magpatuloy and gumawa ng new songs,” he explained.</p><p>Stell envisions his discography as a &quot;memory box&quot; capturing the moments where his dreams became a reality.</p><p>For instance, “Room” showcases his collaboration with industry legends he never imagined he would even one day meet.</p><p>“Ako po hindi ako makapaniwala magkaroon ng opportunity with Mr. Louie Ocampo, Mr. Ryan Cayabyab, David Foster. Grabe &#x27;di ko mapaniwalaan nabibigyan ako ng ganitong opportunity. Parang pakiramdam ko in those moments, gusto ko ipunin parang nilalagay ko sa memory box — &#x27;yun ang EP. Ito sumasalamin doon,” he said.</p><p>According to Stell, he was initially intimidated when Cayabyab, who is a  National Artist for music, pitched  the ballad he composed “Di Ko Masabi” to him.</p><div><span class="fr-video fr-deletable fr-fvc fr-dvb fr-draggable" contenteditable="false" draggable="true"><iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Exk61eDuOCY??si=_NBEGwHJ0Z4XhW8L&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;rel=0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe></span><br/></div><p>“Noong narinig ko demo, parang aatras ako. Parang ubos lahi. &#x27;Yung kanta ang taas. Pero gustong gusto ko kanta. Bagay sa akin,” he recalled.</p><p>The singer, however, used his doubts as fuel to improve himself, believing that passing up the chance to work and learn from a music icon would be a waste.</p><p>“Pero sabi ko sa sarili ko sayang opportunity. Saka Mr. C &#x27;yun, ano karapatan ko to say no! Sinapuso ko mga bagay na dapat ko gawin,” he reasoned.</p><p>“Hangang ngayon di ako makapaniwala, kahit naka ilang songs na ako. Pag-uwi ko — grabe,” he added.</p><p>The SB19 member also shared that the titles from “Room” are a reminder of how many people believe in him.</p><p>“Yung ‘Room’ tinulungan ako ni Pablo, isa kanta ni Max na international artist na binigay niya sa akin na gawa niya. &#x27;Di ako makapaniwala daming tao naniniwala sa akin,” he said.</p><div><br/></div><div><br/></div>
