Jovit open to mentor new singers

MANILA, Philippines- Jovit Baldivino is willing to mentor new and aspiring singers if given a chance.

With the different talent search shows and being discovered from a talent show as well, Jovit sees that opportunity as a way to give back to all his fans who supported him along the way.

He also adds that he doesn’t see these new singers as a threat to his career. “Natutuwa nga ako,” he said.  “Kasi naisip ko simula nang pumasok ako na singer, pumasok ako sa industriyang 'to, natuwa ako na nakita kong naglalabasan pa 'yong magagaling na singer, then nakakatrabaho ko.

“Natutuwa ako kasi parang iniisip ko na para akong naging bayani sa kanila kasi hindi sila tumigil mangarap. Parang ngayon naglalabsan sila kasi gusto rin nila ipakita 'yong talento nila.”

Jovit the Balladeer

One of the important things for every artist is that they should always have something new to offer to their fans. And in Jovit’s case, he would also want the people to see his balladeer side since he’s known for his rock song renditions.

“Kasi po dati nag-start ako sa industry, dati talaga variety ako,” he recalled. “Kasi nag-banda po ako dati, bokalista po ako ng banda dati, so variety po 'yong tugtug namin. May rock, RnB, may retro, mga ballad. Pero puwede ko naman ilabas pagka-balladeer ko, pero focused pa rin sa rock.”

One avenue that he hopes to showcase his other side is on his upcoming concert with The Voice finalist Thor, which is titled “Rock and Soul.”

“Hindi naman kami mahihirapan na magkasama kami hindi naman nagkakalayo 'yong aming genre,” he said about their upcoming concert.

“Kahit 'yong sa kanya may pagka-soul. Idol ko 'yan, si idol Thor. Di naman kami mahihrapan sa genre, ang kailangan lang namin tamang choices lang ng gagawin namin para mag-enjoy ang mga manonood.”

“Rock and Soul” concert will happen on May 17, 8 p.m. at the Music Museum and produced by Cornerstone Concerts.
