That dream was to have Filipino music, Filipino talent, the whole Filipino culture to be pinned onto the world map. Sobrang laking pangarap noon para sa amin and we felt like a lot of people din na nakapaligid sa amin, they think that the dream was so big na they feel like we couldn&#x27;t achieve it,&quot; he said.</p><p>&quot;Pero nagpatuloy kami kasi naniniwala kami, unang-una sa lahat, we have each other to lean on. At naniniwala kami na kapag pinag-igihan namin ay may mararating kami. Ayun nagpatuloy ang SB19.&quot;</p>
