On January 31, O-Side Mafia member Madman Stan admitted feeling surprised by the success of their single Get Low.
At the media event for the Blvck Summer Festival, which LionhearTV covered, Madman Stan recounted how his fellow member Costa Cashman produced and wrote their Billboard Chart Topping song.
“Actually, ‘yung kanta po na ‘yun, idea po siya from Cashman. Wala po siya ngayon, may something important lang po.
“Idea po siya ni Cash, usually po kasi ang ginagawa po kasi namin, si Cash, kapag may naiisip siyang idea, fino-forward niya po sa producer namin kay Burger. Tapos sine-send na po sa amin ni Burger ‘yung beat and then gagawan po namin ng magkakasama.
“Tapos nagawan po namin siya na may verses na tatlo, tapos may naririnig po kasi si Cash na babae sa hook, so ayun po nag-contact po kami ng mga tropa, mga kaibigan po, so doon po nagsimula noong pina-demo namin sa kaniya, naging maganda naman po ‘yung kinalabasan.”
He then confessed how unexpected it was for them to stay on the number one spot for the Billboard’s Philippines Songs Chart.
“Yes, po actually, talagang na-surprise po ako na matagal siya sa #1 dahil gusto rin po namin, at sinikap rin po ng production na mapa-number one siya. Thankful po kami na number one, pero binigay din namin talaga kasi ‘yung best namin doon.”
He also discussed how their chart-topping song changed their lives.
“For me po, parang sa personal na buhay po, siyempre po, mas maluwag na po ‘yung buhay, mas wala ng–hindi naman sa masyadong wala ng iniisip pero, alam po namin na nasa certain point po kami ng buhay namin na pwede naming baguhin simula ngayon hanggang sa kung kailan po kami mabubuhay.”
