Will DJ Durano be
the
next ‘kilabot ng kolehiyala’? |
|
By Ricky T. Gallardo
IN no time, DJ Durano might end
up as the new “kilabot ng kolehiyala,” a title once held by
crooners Hajji Alejandro in the seventies’ and Ariel Rivera in the
early nineties. That is, if Durano’s winning streak continues. Now
that he has released his first CD, Durano joins the roster of
hundreds of other Filipino musical talents who claim to be
legitimate recording artists.
Durano looks good, in fact, he
looks better than a lot of new singers who have entered the business
by way of winning in local reality shows and talent searches. I
listened to his carrier single “Ako Lang ang Nagmahal” while I
was stuck in traffic a few nights ago and I must say that it’s not
bad at all. Am not saying that it’s a brilliant composition, but
Durano’s soothing vocals certainly did the magic. Given the right
promotions, this single might just end up at the top of the local
charts.

How about writing God a

|
|
THE way back to God is often long and hard. Often, a
man has to hit bottom before he can bounce up again. Many of our
Nazareth residents were at the bottom when they came to us.
