Alamat (group)

Alamat (Baybayin: ᜀᜎᜋᜆ᜔) is a Filipino boy group formed in 2020 by Viva Artist Agency and Ninuno Media. The group consists of six members: Taneo, Mo, Jao, Tomas, R-Ji and Alas. Originally a nine-piece ensemble, Kin departed the group in late March 2021 due to personal reasons, followed by Valfer and Gami, who also left in late March 2022. Formed through PWEDE: The National Boyband Search, the group distinguishes itself as a multilingual and multiethnic boy band that sings in seven Philippine languages: Tagalog, Ilocano, Kapampangan, Cebuano, Hiligaynon, Bikolano, and Waray-Waray.[1][2][3] After training for nine months, the group debuted on February 14, 2021, with their first single, "kbye."[4][5] Alamat currently holds the distinction of being the second P-pop group to make it on Billboard chart and the fastest-rising Pinoy act on the Billboard Next Big Sound chart, debuting at #2.[6][7]
