Naks! Mayroon kaming love songs. Siyempre, doon ako nanggaling,&quot; Mercado said. &quot;Sa lahat ng mga album ko, doon ako nakilala talaga, sa mga hugot, love songs. So hindi namin inalis &#x27;yon, kailangan mayroon pa ring hugot, love songs.&quot;</p><p>&quot;Mayroong masasakit, mayroong masasaya. So lahat sinigurado namin na lahat ng genre mayroon para ma-enjoy ng lahat,&quot; she added.</p><p>Mercado also made it clear that she did not leave the music industry, and only took a break as she got busy with showbiz projects and life events.</p><p>&quot;Hindi ako nawala sa music industry. Kumbaga nagpahinga. Nagkaroon ng konting break,&quot; she explained. &quot;Kasi mayroon ako ng ilan-ilang shows noon, series na ginawa, pelikula rin na ginawa. So medyo walang oras. Katulad ng sabi ko kanina, very thankful na kahit &#x27;yung album ko ay three years na ginagawa, very patient ang Star Music sa akin. Talagang naiintindihan nila ako.&quot;</p><p>&quot;Ang music hindi talaga siya mawawala, kumbaga nag-break lang... Siyempre nagkaroon din ng bagong miyembro ng pamilya namin, si Dylan. So habang maliit pa siya, sabi ko focus muna ako sa family.&quot;</p><p>For the short film of &quot;Jen Deluxe,&quot; Mercado worked with director Irene Villamayor.</p><div><br/></div><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-12" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DcQJ-kizw6r/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=594&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A12%2C%22os%22%3A26984365%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="962" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-12" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-14" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DcQDKUyTf02/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=594&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A14%2C%22os%22%3A27014859.699999988%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="986" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-14" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>It was in 2023 when Mercado announced that she is under Star Music.</p><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/11/23/23/jennylyn-mercado-to-make-comeback-album-under-star-music" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jennylyn Mercado to make comeback album under Star Music</a></div><p>This is not the first time that the Kapuso talent is doing a project with ABS-CBN.
