Etymology
editIn the early 1970s, Pinoy music or Pinoy pop emerged, often sung inTagalog.It was a mix of rock, folk and ballads making political use of music similar to earlyhip hopbut transcending class.[2]The music was a "conscious attempt to create a Filipino national and popular culture" and it often reflected social realities and problems.[2]As early as 1973, theJuan de la Cruz Bandwas performing "Ang Himig Natin" ( "Our Music" ), which is widely regarded as the first example ofPinoy rock.[3]"Pinoy" gained popular currency in the late 1970s in the Philippines when a surge inpatriotismmade a hit song of Filipino folk singerHeber Bartolome's "Tayo'y mga Pinoy" ( "We are Pinoys" ). This trend was followed by Filipino rapperFrancis Magalona's "Mga Kababayan Ko" ( "My Countrymen" ) in the 1990s and Filipino rock bandBamboo's "Noypi" ( "Pinoy" in reversed syllables) in the 2000s. Nowadays,Pinoyis used as an adjective to some terms highlighting their relationship to thePhilippinesorFilipinos.Pinoy rockwas soon followed byPinoy folkand later, Pinoy jazz.[2]Although the music was often used to express opposition to thenPhilippine presidentFerdinand Marcosand his use ofmartial lawand the creating of theBatasang Bayan,many of the songs were more subversive and some just instilled national pride. Perhaps because of the cultural affirming nature and many of the songs seemingly being non-threatening, the Marcos administration ordered radio stations to play at least one – and later, three – Pinoy songs each hour.[2]Pinoy music was greatly employed both by Marcos and political forces who sought to overthrow him.[2]
History
edit1960s-1970s: Beginnings
editFilipino pop songs mainly referred to songs popularized since the 1960s, usuallysentimental balladsandmovie themes.Major 1960s Filipino pop acts includePilita CorralesandNora Aunor.1960s-styled ballads maintained their popularity into the 1970s, led by female balladeers dubbed "jukebox queens" such asClaire dela Fuente,Imelda PapinandEva Eugenio,and male artists such as Anthony Castelo,Edgar MortizandVictor Wood.
In the first half of the 1970s,Manila sounddominated the pop scene, with acts suchHotdog,CinderellaandSampaguita.Originally influenced by rock-and-roll and bubblegum pop, Manila sound would take influences from funk and disco by the second half of the decade, and acts such asVST & Company,theBoyfriendsandHagibisclosely emulated contemporaneous popular foreign artists such as theBee Geesand theVillage Peoplein their performance and visual style.
"Original Pilipino music", commonly known through its abbreviation OPM (which was coined byDanny JavierofAPO Hiking Society), would emerge by the mid-1970s, and originally referred to modern Filipino pop music of the time, primarily ballads, that became popular with the decline of Manila sound. Pioneering acts include APO Hiking Society,Rey Valera,Freddie Aguilar,Basil Valdez,Rico J. PunoandHajji Alejandro.Female artists that defined 1970s OPM includeSharon Cuneta(then a teenager) andLeah Navarro.Singer-songwritersRyan CayabyabandJosé Mari Chanrose to fame in the 1970s by composing English OPM love songs alongside modern Tagalog songs.
Radio and music festivals played an important role in the popularization of Filipino music of the time through government or broadcasting industry quotas. In 1973, AM broadcasters were required to play 50% Filipino material for music programming with some exceptions. By 1977, all music broadcasters were required to play one Filipino song every hour. Also in 1977, theMetro Manila Popular Music Festival(Metropop Festival) was launched, drawing both amateur and commercial talent; one of the winning songs included "Anak"by Freddie Aguilar, which would become an international hit. The first iteration of the Metropop Festival would last until 1985.
1980s: Golden age of OPM
editSentimental OPM ballads became the predominant form of Filipino pop in the 1980s. The growing number ofmiddle-of-the-road(MOR) oradult contemporary(AC) radio stations in the Philippines, as well as an increase in the Filipino music quota to three songs per hour in 1987 provided OPM more exposure on the airwaves. The decade saw the rise of acts such asMartin Nievera,Ric Segreto,Roel Cortez,Sharon Cuneta,Lea Salonga,Zsa Zsa Padilla,Kuh Ledesma,Donna Cruz,Joey Albert,Raymond Lauchengco,Gary Valenciano,the Company,andSmokey Mountain.1970s OPM acts such as the APO Hiking Society and Basil Valdez continued their success into the 1980s.
English-language OPM recordings from both professional and amateur talent also exploded in the 1980s. Non-Tagalog or mixed-heritage (usually Filipino-American) artists such as Jose Mari Chan or Martin Nievera largely recorded OPM songs in English. Acts that largely recorded in Tagalog also began to record original English-language material in the 1980s, such as Basil Valdez with "You", and APO Hiking Society with "When I Met You" and "Love Is For Singing".
1990s: Prominence of rock and acoustic bands, and new generation of balladeers
editThe early to mid-1990s saw the emergence of the pop-rock group,Eraserheads,considered as a turning-point in the OPM music scene. In the wake of their success was the emergence of a string of influential bands such asYano,Siakol,Parokya ni Edgar,Grin Department,Rivermaya,Moonstar88andHungry Young Poets,each of which mixes the influence of a variety of pop and rock subgenres into their style.
Filipino rockcontinues to flourish at present with newer bands such asHale,Cueshé,Sponge Cola,Chicosci,KamikazeeandUrbandub,and the emergence of the country's first virtual band, Mistula. Though only some of the spearheading bands are still fully intact, many old members have formed new bands such asPupil,Sandwich,andBamboo.A few band members such asKitchie Nadal,Barbie Almalbis,andRico Blancohave established steady solo careers.
Though rock bands have been dominating the mainstream since their commercialization in the '90s, acoustic groups were still regularly showcased in the live band scene such asSide A,True Faith,Neocolours,South BorderandFreestylepopularized songs that clearly reflect the sentimental character of OPM pop. Popular acoustic acts likeNina,Juris(ofMYMP) andAiza Seguerraalso prove the diversity of Filipino pop.
The 1990s would see a new generation of Filipino ballad-oriented acts such asRegine Velasquez,Rachel Alejandro,Ogie Alcasid,Ariel Rivera,Rodel Naval,theApril Boys,Jaya,Jessa Zaragoza,Carol BanawaandJolina Magdangal.Artists such as Velasquez and Jaya would continue their careers into the new millennium. Older established artists such as Gary Valenciano, Martin Nievera, Freddie Aguilar and Jose Mari Chan continued to record new material and have exposure on radio throughout the decade.
2000s-early 2010s: Re-emergence of R&B and novelty songs
editFrom the early 2000s onwards,Kyla,NinaandJay Rbegan to be pioneers of the contemporary R&B music.Francis Magalona,Andrew E,Gloc-9,Abra,andShehyeewould pioneerPinoy hip-hop.
Local sing and dance groupsSexBomb GirlsandViva Hot Babesbegan to popularizenovelty songsamong the masses.
2010s-present: Renaissance
