Billboard Philippines Volume 4 with the Pinoy Hip-Hop Class of 2024
Pinoy hip-hop has always been and will always be unafraid. Track after track, the genre continues to dominate the Philippine charts — amassing a historic number of streams in the past year alone.
Through the years, the genre has continued to embody and reflect the essence of Filipino culture in its stories, beats, and rhythm. As hip-hop continues to find its way into every crevice of Filipino culture, it has catapulted itself into a broader cultural shift within the country and beyond, seeing a new generation of innovative and revolutionary artists.
This is Billboard Philippines’ Fourth Volume — the Pinoy Hip-Hop Class of 2024. In each bar and flow, these eight rising artists carry the stories of the struggles and successes that only their genre can tell. Set to amplify the nation’s sound to the global arena, Billboard Philippines’ Rookies of The Year confidently and courageously demand for the recognition and respect the genre rightfully deserves.
From its earliest old school forms to the today’s more modern and experimental styles, we uncover hip-hop’s inherent spirit of evolution. With the razor sharp flows of FlipTop and the fiery beats of each chart-breaker, the genre’s continued impact has never been dull, and continues to be the powerful force behind today’s vibrant culture and history.

April 2024 with Kathryn Bernardo
MEGA’s April issue goes back to the person who deserves all credit for striving, loving, forgiving, dreaming, and pushing through amidst life’s hurdles: You. The self-love issue challenges you to conquer and quash external validation and societal norms so you can begin—again—to understand who you are at this stage in your life and who you want to be.
Fronting the cover is Kathryn Bernardo, who, in the past few months, has learned to grow in letting go and loving herself more than she’s ever had in her life. Read about her story of freedom in her most candid interview yet.
In other pages, MEGA puts the spotlight on designers, fashion influencers, and local brands who are in full control of their artistry and talent: Joey Samson and RJ Santos (two designers, who got into a deep conversation about mentorship and designing in different eras), Marina Summers, Paul Cabral, Baúl, Suyen Salazar, Paola de Leon Lorenzo, AC Bonifacio, and Kyline Alcantara. David Guison, under the MEGA Man section, also talks about finding his own taste in the world of scents.
Lastly, as the temperature begins to rise, we dictate the must-haves for the summer season: “man-repeller” makeup, distressed dresses, stacked jewelry, beads, etc.
