Lagulos, A student from MMCM taking the Computer Science course. Here are my interests relating to Philippine Pop Culture:

1. OPM

I love listening to OPM. I listen to artist such as IV of Spades, Juan Karlos, December Avenue. I also listen to the classic OPM rock made back in the early 2000's.

2. K-Drama

I love watching K-Drama. It's definitely a culture here in the Philippines to watch foreign telenovelas specifically K-Drama. My favorite one is "Our Beloved Summer".

3. Facebook Memes

I am active in Facebook and I love seeing posts that are memes. They make me laugh especially when it's too relatable.

4. Esports

I also watch and engage in Esports. One of the most famous esports here in the Philippines is Mobile Legends.

5. PBA / Basketball

I also watch PBA and cheer on my favorite players.

As for why, I just simply love music. While I mainly listen to foreign pop music, OPM will forever have a place in my heart. I first started getting into OPM because of Sponge Cola's "Tambay". I was into rock music then I discovered that OPM has some good rock songs as well. After that, I just simply listened more and more. 

As of now my favorite artist/band is IV of Spades. I love their Funk/Disco sound. I like to think that IV of Spades is unique because of how different they were at a time when OPM was starting to sound the same. I also think that they are an inspiration to many who want to push the OPM genre further as well.]]> 2023-10-22 05:15:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ctclagulos/w012buz2493o9fmq/wish/2757484823 Analysis ctclagulos https://padlet.com/ctclagulos/w012buz2493o9fmq/wish/2757493527 OPM is essential for preserving and celebrating Filipino culture. OPM artists draw from traditional music and indigenous rhythms, giving their songs a unique Filipino touch. This helps keep cultural traditions alive. OPM songs often use local languages and dialects, celebrating the diversity of the Philippines. This makes people proud of their heritage and connects them to their roots.

OPM also plays a big role in shaping the Filipino identity. Its lyrics often address important social and political issues that resonate with the audience. OPM gives Filipinos a way to connect, engage with their society, and reinforce their identity as a nation. Songs about love, nationalism, and social justice spark discussions and make people feel united. In times of national crisis or celebration, OPM becomes a symbol of unity and strength, shaping the Filipino identity. It's not just about individual enjoyment; it helps create a sense of collective identity and shared values.

In conclusion, OPM is a powerful force in Philippine society. OPM inspires cultural pride and unity, making a big impact on preserving tradition and reinforcing a collective Filipino identity. Through its music and lyrics, OPM actively engages the audience and contributes to the cultural and social growth of the Philippines.
