The local airwaves are being dominated by Western music and Korean pop songs.
Recently Cebuanos have started listening to contemporary Visayan songs that showcase local talents.
This welcome trend has encouraged more Visayan songwriters to come out with more material and make us Visayans feel proud about our musical heritage.
Get your speakers ready as we share the top six finalists (in no particular order) for the Visayan Pop Music Festival 2.0 Grand finals on June 24.
