Maymay releases dance-pop single ‘Paradise’

CEBU, Philippines —

Its vibrant music video is also up on YouTube, featuring two visions of paradise with differing ideas of happiness between two people.

“Paradise” was written by the 2025 GRAMMYs’ Songwriter of the Year, Amy Allen, who has worked with several international artists including Sabrina Carpenter, Tate McRae, and Olivia Rodrigo.

It explores the bittersweet aftermath of a breakup, chronicling one’s journey from trying to salvage a love to letting go and realizing one’s self-worth.

“The first step to enter Paradise is realizing that you’re worthy. This song comes from the bottom of my heart and I hope it speaks to yours,” said Maymay on Instagram.

Maymay is one of ABS-CBN’s rising global acts who is behind the viral single “Amakabogera,” which earned over 10 million Spotify streams. Its music video has already garnered 27 million YouTube plays. Her other hits include “Kakayanin Kaya,” “Puede Ba,” and “Tsada Mahigugma.”
