According to Jericho, who wrote all the seven original songs in his nine-track album, his latest musical treat to fans is mostly all about love and giving back to God.
“The idea of giving the album the title “Korona” (crown) came from our photographer Xander Angeles’ shot of a raindrop that bounced back from the ground, which created an image of a crown. For me, it signified something like giving back or bringing all the glory back to Him,” Jericho narrated. “I share this album to all my followers and I offer it to God. It is His. We named the album “Korona” because He is the real King.”
Released under Star Records, the album features seven all-original alternative OPM songs including “Kasama Ka;” “Halaga;” “Pusong Ligaw,” which was co-written by Butch Elizalde; “Bumuhos Man ang Ulan” that was produced and arranged by Gabriel Valenciano; “Dahil sa Pag-ibig,” which was the theme song of Jericho’s latest drama series of the same title where he co-starred with Piolo Pascual; another version of “Paboritong Tag-ulan” where he had a duet with OPM singer Julianne; and its carrier single “Paboritong Tag-Ulan,” which was written by Jericho and composed by album co-producer and Star Records’ audio and content manager Jonathan Manalo.
“Korona” also highlights Jericho’s revival of a Freddie Aguilar hit “Kamusta Ka Aking Mahal” and Sugarfree’s “Makita Kang Muli,” which was the theme song of ABS-CBN’s 2005 drama epic “Ang Panday” that starred Jericho.
