MANILA, Philippines — P-pop girl group G22 is still in awe following their collaboration with SB19 and Sandara Park for the “Acer Day 2024” event.

The new ambassadors of Acer Philippines, AJ, Alfea, and Jaz of G22, got to share the stage with 2NE1’s Sandara for In or Out and SB19 for Limitless during the “Acer Day 2024” concert held recently. Limitless is the brand’s anthem for the music gig which was composed by SB19’s Pablo and produced by Radkidz.

Dubbed the “Female Alphas of P-pop,” G22 also rendered an intense performance of their own songs, Boomerang, Bang, One Sided Love, and Loka.

“I still feel like I’m dreaming. It was so amazing,” said Jaz in a presscon after the event. “The opportunity to collab with amazing artists and to also have them on stage for our song to perform, we are so grateful and it’s truly a milestone for us.”

Alfea was grateful for the opportunity as well. “This was one of the things that we’ve dreamed of before and we’re very thankful to Acer (for the chance).”

“Actually, it’s still not sinking in for me that we have collaborated with big artists like Sandara and SB19. Grabe kayo, Acer, thank you so much.”

The girls shared that they learned plenty of insights from their team-up with Sandara and SB19.

“We’re not there just for the collaboration, we’re also there to learn. We learned a lot from these artists, such as, work ethic, how they perform, how they are as artists. And as starting artists, it’s huge for us. We learned a lot, actually,” asserted AJ.

Alfea concurred, “Grabe yung feeling when we were on stage. It’s like, ‘Oh my gosh, this is it.’”

AJ recalled that the iconic song In or Out was one of the tracks that she listened to as a child and she never imagined that she would perform it with Sandara one day.

On the other hand, one of the memorable moments they had while recording Limitless was how Pablo taught them some music techniques. “He taught us how to execute the song. We encountered new style for the song Limitless, like rapping, that’s one of the things that we gleaned from Kuya Pablo himself,” recalled Alfea.

For AJ, she couldn’t forget how nervous she was during the recording. “Yung kaba ko because we know how he excelled (in his craft) and we know how he is. He was not just a rapper-singer in the room. He was our producer. So, producer Pablo was something na medyo kinakabahan ako super.”

But Pablo, nonetheless, guided them during the entire recording process. “He wants to make sure that you’re fine with it. You’re comfortable doing it and that’s why thank you so much Kuya Pablo for your patience,” said AJ.

Speaking of music collaborations, Alfea expressed that she wants to work with Ben&Ben and Jaz with Yeng Constantino.

Meanwhile, AJ maintained that they don’t engage in comparisons with other P-pop groups. She explained, “Because we only have one goal. One of (those) is to elevate P-pop and OPM. So, if we have the same goal, let’s elevate ourselves ng sabay-sabay.”
