Everyday, a new Filipino talent is born. Popular millennial radio station Wish 107.5 FM wanted to hone and let these gifted musicians showcase what they’ve got through “Wishcovery (Your Road To Stardom Starts Here!),” an online singing competition which begun September 2017.
Tagged as the newest of its kind, this competition aims to discover aspiring musical talents with exceptional voices and star-like charisma from across the country. It enlists renowned hitmaker Jungee Marcelo, The Company’s Annie Quintos, and the country’s King of R&B Jay R as resident reactors, with R&B Prince Kris Lawrence as host.
The first-ever Wishcovery grand winner will win Php 2 million worth of cash and contract, a house and lot, a brand-new car, a makeover package, and a round-trip ticket to New York plus a two-week extensive musical training.
All the aspirants have gone through rigorous journeys to get this far and gain a spot to the Grand Finals.
Weekly Wish Bus Battles
From the original 20 singing hopefuls – collectively known as the Wishful 20, Wishcovery showcased weekly vocal battles on board the Wish 107.5 Bus. Scores were determined through a week-long power viewing component (15%) and through the resident reactors’ cumulative scores (85%).
The original 20 were trimmed down to the four contenders who will vie in the grand finals on March 27 at the Smart-Araneta Coliseum.
Meanwhile, the eliminated Wishfuls were given the chance to return to the competition’s wild card and grab the final and fifth spot.
The best five were chosen to compete with each other and prove who’s worthy of the title on March 27 at the Smart-Araneta Coliseum.
Wishcovery Live Chat
To let the Wishers and their respective fans get closer to the Wishful 5, Wishcovery held a Live Chat via Wish 107.5’s Facebook page every Sunday at 6 PM PHT in February.
Hosted by Kris Lawrence, the Live Chat served as a fun and interactive platform wherein the online audience were able to throw questions, ask for song wishes, and request for shout-outs from their favorite grand finalists.
