SB19 Stell said he wanted SB19 to be known for being the group that didn’t give up at the media conference for the WYAT Tour with the press, including LionhearTV, on September 13, 2022.
SB19 Stell recounted their struggle and journey to get where they are now.
“Sa akin naman po, gusto ko po na makilala nila ‘yung SB19 as a group na hindi talaga nag-give up. Kumbaga, simple siya pero for me, masasabi ko siyang ganon kasi alam naman natin na ‘yung pangalan na SB19, matagal na siyang nakikilala, naririnig, and marami na siyang mga awards or nominations na napuntahan, pero hindi pa namin talaga nahi-hit ‘yung top po talaga sa mga nominations.”
He also promised that they would not stop until they achieved their dreams.
“And hindi ‘yun ‘yung nagpapatigil sa amin na abutin pa ‘yung higher dreams namin. Kumbaga, nandito na kami, nasimulan na namin, hindi po kami susuko, and doon po namin gustong makilala ‘yung group namin, kami ‘yung group na hindi talaga titigil hangga’t hindi namin naabot, at natutupad ‘yung pangarap namin.”
As for their international fans, he described the experience as heartwarming.
“‘Yung may mga foreign fans po kami actually, nakakataba po siya ng puso. Kasi, knowing na a lot of Filipino fans na nakakaintindi and sumu-support sa amin, alam namin na nandiyan sila. Pero, ‘yung magkaroon ng international and foreign fans na talagang kahit hindi nila naiintindihan ‘yung kanta namin nakikinig sila, and nandiyan sila to support us.”
He also highlighted how their music transcended the language barrier for their international fans.
“Which really explains na wala talagang kinalaman ang lingwahe, kumbaga nasa music, kung ano ‘yung pinapadama ng musika, nararamdaman ng tao kahit ano pang salita, anong lingwahe, kung ano ‘yung message ng kanta, tumatagos talaga sa tao. So, nakaktuwa na nagugustuhan nila ‘yung kanta namin.”
