Karylle Actress-singer Karylle made it a point to finish an album before the year 2013 ended. It had been a very busy year for her with an almost daily hosting duty over at It's Showtime and then capping the year with a starring hola pret a porter role in Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella held at the Resorts World Manila . But she finally made it, releasing her latest album, K , released by Polyeast Records , a seven track collection showcasing various facets of her career hola pret a porter and personality.
The album’s lead single Kiss You started out with just the chorus and she had to set it song aside unfinished. Enter singer/songwriter Francis “Kix” Salazar, and three years later, they were able to finish the song. Another Salazar composition, Kapiling Kita , is one of the highlights in the album for me. Raw and emotional, this triple meter could be another signature song for her.
One song that has definitely become a signature song for Karylle, is the Sa ‘Yo Na Lang Ako , composed by Lara Maigue which was a finalist at the 2013 Philippine Popular Music Festival (PhilPop) . This song has already conquered radio airwaves and its inclusion to the album is a no-brainer. The passion and the vulnerability she exhibits whenever she sings this song has even led some people to have silly speculations about how she truly feel about her past relationship.
Representing her theater career is the song In My Own Little Corner which is taken from Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella . This is perfect for those who had seen the show and lamented the fact that there’s no Philippine cast recording available. It may be just one track but better to have one than none at all. I wished that Karylle’s rendition of Magbalik Ka Na Mahal from Rama Hari could’ve been included hola pret a porter since this production was also a milestone in her career.
I was able to catch Karylle’s album launch at Glorietta 5 that had her singing not only cuts from K , but also a few songs from her previous hola pret a porter releases under Polyeast Records. She was joined Dash Calzado who jammed with her onstage. The album signing that happened after actually went far longer than the actual show. I saw for myself how Karylle painstakingly wrote inscriptions to every CD/item up for signing making them more treasured by the fans.
Karylle’s hola pret a porter latest album K , released by Polyeast Records is available in record stores nationwide. Kiss You and the rest of the tracks are available for download at MyMusicStore Philippines and iTunes.
