A week out from her debut it’s been determined that Charice has had her album emerge in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 chart. That’s a huge accomplishment for the pint-sized singer and we can only hope she carries the momentum forward. It’s not every day we see individuals with faces like ours making such a big sales impact so make sure to continue supporting the girl if you like her music! We shall see tomorrow if she was able to continue these strong figures into her second week.
Charice’s new self titled album drops TODAY, and as a treat you can also grab one of the singles, “In This Song” as a free MP3 download for today only, courtesy of Amazon MP3! I’m sure all you Charice fans will cop the album anyway but for those of you unsure, this is a great way to hear a glimpse of what’s on the LP. This little girl’s got a huge voice and a promising career ahead of her that even Oprah herself cosigns. Congrats on the release Charice!
Here at a-Tunes we have an unofficial policy where we don’t post up every single cover video a singer posts up on Youtube simply because some are better than others and there are often too many to keep track of. Exceptions include multi-artists collabs, “can’t miss” performances, and when Asian artists pay homage to other Asian artists. Luckily this video fits almost all that criteria as JC once again enlists the help of Johnny on the guitar, she sings Charice’s hit song w/ IYAZ – “Pyramid“, and she kills it. Great job!
A few weeks back we announced that Charice was releasing a new single featuring IYAZ entitled “Pyramid”. Well yesterday the MV dropped for the catchy pop single. I haven’t had the chance to check it out myself but I’ll put int my two cents later tonight.
[edit] Now that I’ve had the chance to check out the video/song in full I can say I like the track, but don’t love it. It’s great to listen to as long as you don’t pay too much attention to the lyrics, which consist of the typical vague imagery type of drivel found in most adult contemporary songs such as those the winners of American Idol are usually forced to sing. But other than that it’s a catchy, mid-tempo number, IYAZ was a great choice as a feature as he helps mix things up and keep things current, and there’s no doubt that Charice can sing. The girls got a voice and style well beyond her years. The video is simple but decent enough. Pretty decent overall. [/edit]
Singing child prodigy Charice Pempengco has released a teaser of her upcoming song “Pyramid” featuring IYAZ and due to be released Tuesday, February 23 (next week!)
It sound’s pretty current and well produced, and IYAZ is undoubtedly a popular Top 40 artist to work with so I think these are pretty wise moves on behalf of her and her management. The song sounds promising and keeps her image youthful but not overly so and without abandoning her core audience (let’s be frank, the Oprah watching mothers love her).
Charice Pempengco, who gained worldwide fame after her appearance on Star King, is featured on the latest installment of the Now That’s What I Call Music! CD compilations of the lastest and greatest hits. Her first American single, “Note To God” joins Billboard Chart #1 songs such as “Boom Boom Pow” by Black Eyed Peas, “Right Round” by Flo-Rida and “Poker Face” by Lady Gaga.
I remember when the first Now! came out. It was a time when it wasn’t so easy to make your own playlist… honestly I think the Now! series are ironically a bit antiquated.
This has been quite the year for CharicePempengco as Ningin is reporting that she has just signed with Warner Brothers Records, a major US music label. This news follows hot off the success of her single ‘Note to God‘ released just a couple weeks ago.

Congrats to Charice and her success. Her debut album is also slated to drop sometime in the fall.
Asian Media Portal Ningin has posted interviews with:
Jane Lui, a contestant in the upcoming Kollaboration 9and winner of Kollaboration Acoustic. (Fun Fact: She was a last minute replacement in Kollaboration Acoustic)
The KPOP singer from jersey everyone loves to hate, Jessica H.O., is attempting to comeback. Honestly she’s not that bad. Is it just me or does her rapping style sound really similar to Tasha’s?
Another track by aspiring US artist Se7en titled “No Taking Back” has leaked and is making its way around the net. Once again it seems to be generating little fanfare.
Singing family sensation Jazminreleased a new webisode chronicling their holidays. They look like a fun group of girls. And one of them is so cute it’s almost ridiculous.
