Kaya salamat naman, through his mom Ms. Nancy Sipat, pinaunlakan kami ni Karl ng isa pang Q & A interview.
Kaya hayan, nasa ibaba ang aming Questions and Answers kay Karl. Abangan na lang ang pag-usbong ng kanyang kasikatan. Soon.
ROBERT: KARL, HOW DID YOU DISCOVER YOUR LOVE FOR SINGING?
KARL: It started years ago when i was young, we were singing
videoke at home then bigla nalang daw po akong sumabay sa mga kanta. Although i
cannot sing the words properly yet, i always got the melody right. May ouido
raw po ako.
ROBERT: HOW SUPPORTIVE IS YOUR MOM TO YOUR LOVE FOR SINGING?
KARL: Very supportive. She's always motivating me in pursuing
this career.
ROBERT: WHAT WAS YOUR MOST MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE AS A SINGER?
KARL: My most memorable moment is probably the first time i
performed in front of a crowd. I grew up very shy and always had this fear of
performing in front of people. It felt surreal after the performance. It was
definitely a milestone for me.
ROBERT: IF YOU WILL BE GIVEN A CHANCE, ANO'NG IMAGE OF A SINGER ANG GUSTO MO? BALLADEER BA, ROCKER, RND ARTIST, ACOUSTIC OR JAZZ SINGER?
KARL: I think singing jazz and acoustic songs are my strengths.
Most artists stick with one or two genres, but as much as possible, i want to
expand the variety of genres i can sing.
ROBERT: AS A YOUNG AND PROMISING SINGER, SAAN KA KUMUKUHA NG NEW TECHNIQUES OR IDEAS TO FURTHER IMPROVE YOUR CRAFT?
KARL:I watch live performances of foreign and local artists on
the internet and listen to their songs. I listen to their techniques and styles
on delivering a particular line in the song, and i try to learn how to
incorporate it with my own.
ROBERT: SINO KINA GERALD SANTOS, MICHAEL PANGILINAN, LANCE RAYMUNDO, MACOY MENDOZA O KIEL ALO ANG GUSTO MONG MAKASAMA SA ISANG CONCERT SOMEDAY, KARL?
ROBERT: SINO KINA GERALD SANTOS, MICHAEL PANGILINAN, LANCE RAYMUNDO, MACOY MENDOZA O KIEL ALO ANG GUSTO MONG MAKASAMA SA ISANG CONCERT SOMEDAY, KARL?
KARL:I would be honored to perform with Michael Pangilinan and
Lance Raymundo someday.
ROBERT: ANU-ANO PA BA ANG MGA HIDDEN TALENTS MO, KARL?
KARL: I think hidden talent ko po is that i could dance
decently. Not good, but not that bad either. I could also sing a bunch of
korean songs too. The dancing will stay hidden for a while though haha
ROBERT: ANO BA ANG LAST CONCERT NA PINANOOD MO, KARL? AT ANO ANG MASASABI MO SA CONCERT NA IYON?
KARL: Last concert ko na napanood is from a KPOP girl group
called TWICE when they performed at MOA Arena. I'm a big fan. The amount of
energy present that night was unbelievable. Ten thousand people sounded like
thirty thousand people just by screaming their lungs out. Kung iisipin nyo po,
parang military base ang arena dahil karamihan ay mga fanboys na sumisigaw
haha. I wish to have a world tour like theirs someday. With the right amount of
hard work and opportunity, maybe i can.
ROBERT: AS A YOUNG AND PROMISING SINGER, WHAT CAN YOU SAY ABOUT THE PRESENT SITUATION OF THE PHILIPPINE MUSIC INDUSTRY? SA PALAGAY MO BA AY NAPAG-IWANAN NA TAYO NG MGA K-POP ARTISTS AND AMERICAN SINGERS?
KARL: With all the genres na nagiging mainstream in music right
now, yes. I would say na OPM is a little bit underappreciated these days, with
a bunch of viral hit songs here and there. Some people are saying OPM is dying
but i don't think so. Maraming Filipino artists na magagaling na hindi
nabibigyan ng pansin o hindi pa nadi-discover like indie artists for example.
If we could expand our market and promote these artists properly, maybe we can
bring back OPM to it's glory days and maybe we can globalize it like Korea is
doing with KPOP. There's nothing wrong with foreign songs topping charts or
being mainstream locally since nagbabago talaga ang taste ng pinoy when it
comes to music. Wag lang natin kalimutan ang sariling atin dahil OPM, Kundiman
and Balitaw is our identity when it comes to music.
ROBERT: ANO ANG ULTIMATE DREAM MO AS A SINGER?
ROBERT: ANO ANG ULTIMATE DREAM MO AS A SINGER?
KARL: My ultimate dream as a singer is to be successful here
and in other countries as well. I also want to learn how to produce and write
my own music. I would also like to see people who relate to the music the
i made and someday hear them saying that
my song made their day. That would be an amazing feeling.
