Putting a fresh spin on a rap classic
Rising P-pop group WRIVE joins forces with singer and “It’s Showtime” host Cianne Dominguez to give a fresh and contemporary take on the rap/hiphop classic “Sumayaw Ka.”
Originally written and performed by Gloc-9, the song reflects on the challenges that come with life while reminding listeners to keep moving forward and hold on to their passion. The new rendition was produced and arranged by Darren Cashwell and WRIVE member Russu.
Before its official release, WRIVE had already introduced “Sumayaw Ka” to audiences through live performances at various shows and events, including WRIVE’s first anniversary celebration “Unang Taon” last July and Star Magic’s All-Star Games at the SM Mall of Asia Arena last month.
The group has also been building anticipation for the release through a dance challenge on social media, with various Kapamilya personalities joining in and adding their own moves to the track.
The collaboration comes as WRIVE continues to establish its presence in the P-pop scene. The group released its self-titled debut album last January, which has amassed more than 700,000 streams on Spotify and features the tracks “Ooh La La,” “Senorita,” and “Panaginip Na Lang.”
Listen to WRIVE and Cianne Dominguez’s “Sumayaw Ka” now available on all digital streaming platforms. For more details, follow WRIVE on Facebook, X, Instagram, and TikTok.
