On June 24 and 25, 2023, the boys of SB19 will return to the Big Dome for the much-awaited Philippine leg of their “SB19 PAGTATAG! World Tour.” This concert series is in promotion of their latest EP, “PAGTATAG!”, which was successfully released on June 9, 2023.

“We’re in an era where we put to test everything we have acquired and learned throughout these years. We are in a space where we completely open ourselves up to the world, and to each other, wholly. We are here to build our character and strengthen it further,” the “GENTO” act shared.

A month ago, SB19 published a five-minute trailer that announced the release dates of their upcoming offerings and gave their loyal fanbase, the A’TIN, a glimpse of what to expect at their upcoming concert.

On being ‘self-managed’

‍

‍

During the media launch of SB19’s “PAGTATAG!” EP held at the Brooklyn Warehouse in Manila on June 9, 2023, Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken, and Justin revealed that they are now self-managed and have built their own entertainment company, “1Z Entertainment.”

“It all started with a crazy idea na during trainee days, nagbibiruan kami na we wanted to make our own company, our own pacing, our own management, [with] handpicked people na pinagkakatiwalaan namin,” said SB19’s lead rapper Josh Cullen.

“Ito pong 1Z, we built it not just for SB19, but for the whole P-pop or OPM industry. Kasi we wanted, siyempre, parang to challenge the industry,” he added.

“In the future, we might have our own artists na rin. We nurture other artists na rin. So, parang in the future, we’re planning a lot of things na po ahead na pwede namin gawin not only with SB19, but with other possible talents dito sa Pilipinas,” SB19’s main vocalist and lead dancer Stell concluded.
