We had no social media, no teleprompters, not even our own studio. We had to shoot every episode from a theater called the Delta Theater where we all shared one dressing room. ASAP has always been and will always be about family,&quot; Martin recalled.The singer-host highlighted how the ASAP family has grown over the years and remained strong.&quot;Our Kapamilya started with these four faces and 30 years later we have grown bigger and bigger and together we have weathered every storm to have survived this long. The rest, as they say, is history,&quot; he said.ASAP&#x27;s anniversary coincidentally falls on Martin&#x27;s birthday.&quot;It is such a special fun fact for me to always celebrate my birthday on the same day as the birthday of my favorite All Star Sunday Afternoon Party! Happy birthday asap! Let’s grow old together…. @asapofficial,&quot; he stated.
