Dubbed as The Singing Idol, LA Santos is very vocal about the mixture of nerves and excitement he feels about his upcoming first major solo concert, #Petmalu. "“Excited po ako dahil first major solo concert ko ito, may halong kaba rin po siyempre, hindi po siguro talaga mawawala iyon. Pero siguro po ay normal lang na makaramdam ng ganoon talaga,” he declared.
He might be one of Star Music's new hot properties, but he's still just a boy. In fact, he is currently enrolled as a Grade 11 student in the University of Sto. Tomas. Aside from Celine Dion, he mentioned in his Manila Bulletin that he hopes to also collaborate with Parokya ni Edgar, Bamboo, Gloc-9, Snoop Dogg, Harry Styles, and Bruno Mars in the future.
Petmalu will be held at the Music Museum on April 30, 8pm. Jaya, Ian Veneracion, Michael Pangilinan, Jona, Imelda Papin, Claire dela Fuente, Eva Eugenio, Boobsie Wonderland, and his sister Kanishia Santos, are among his special guests.
“Kaya sana ay abangan po nila, marami pong pasabog sa concert na ito, may production number po kami ng mga guest ko at magdu-duet kami ng sister ko na si Kanishia Santos.” He also revealed that he can't help but be ecstatic over the decision of his sister to be part of the music industry as well.
He seems to have all the energy in the world to pursue what he wants. How does he feel about his career? “Masaya, sobra po pero hindi pa ako satisfied, paulit-ulit kong sinasabi po iyon. Ayaw ko po kasing ma-satisfy, naniniwala kasi ako na marami pang mangyayari sa career ko, kumbaga po ay umpisa pa lang ito. Kaya talagang work hard lang ang gagawin ko. Kumbaga, gusto ko pong ituloy-tuloy lang, at talagang pagsisikapan at paghihirapan ko po para maabot ko yung dreams ko.”
#Petmalu is produced by J.E.D.I. (Joed Entertainment Department Incorporated) and Dream Wings Production Inc. 2016 Aliw Award Nominee for Best Engineered Recording and UP College of Music alumnus Iean Iñigo is the musical director.
That's Entertainment alumnus Joed Serrano decided to take his chance on LA because the former now manages the latter. A concert enthusiast can easily recall that he is behind the first major concerts of Vice Ganda, Alex Gonzaga, Pokwang, Ate Gay, and Boobsie Wonderland.
“Tito Boy Abunda told me about LA, sabi niya sa akin, ‘Please look at LA’s video sa YouTube and then tignan mo, napaka-special ng batang iyan.’ So, I saw the video Tinamaan, hindi pa ako roon agad-agad na-convince. But up until… eto swear to God, ito iyong totoo, nakita ko iyong video ng version niya ni Moira na Titibo-Tibo and from there, roon ko naintindihan ang sinasabi ni Tito Boy."
“Tapos nalaman ko nga iyong passion niya sa pagkanta, iyong pangarap niyang maging singer at artista. Naalala ko iyong sarili ko noon, eto ha, it reminded me na hindi lahat ng gustong mag-artista o kumanta ay mahihirap, hindi lahat gusto yung katulad namin na gustong mag-perform sa magulang, hindi ganoon.
“Mayroon din namang iba na gusto lang talagang ma-fulfill yung mga pangarap nila sa buhay. Dumaan ako roon eh, sa pag-aantay. I’m sure karamihan sa inyo alam iyan,” said the former actor.
