About this Song
SB19, the Philippine-based act behind Ikako (Wakas At Simula), builds their catalogue of work through releases that resist the rigid, often restrictive genre categories that shape most of the global music industry’s distribution and framing of recorded sound, a choice that aligns with the release’s classification under Music/Other/Other, a broad umbrella that holds work that does not fit neatly into any of the more established, widely recognized genre bins that audiences and industry stakeholders alike have come to rely on to categorize creative output. Issued under the Sony Music Entertainment umbrella as part of the act’s ongoing body of work, Ikako (Wakas At Simula) exists as a testament to the value of creating space for art that cannot be easily summed up by a single genre label, a type of art that rejects the idea that every piece of recorded music must align with a specific set of unwritten rules to resonate with listeners, or to earn a place in the broader landscape of global creative work.
