In a time defined by endless scrolling, constant notifications, and an overwhelming stream of information, Kean Cipriano offers audiences a different kind of experience: one that asks them to pause, be present, and simply feel.
Released as a surprise drop on June 13, the music video for Give Me A Kiss transforms the blues-rock track into a cinematic exploration of attraction, intimacy, and human connection. The curated music film stars acclaimed actress Angel Aquino and is directed by Cinemalaya award-winning filmmaker and art curator Jaime Pacena III.
More than a traditional music video, Give Me A Kiss was conceived as a curated audiovisual experience—one that combines music, performance, and visual storytelling to capture the thrill of connection and the emotions that emerge when two people share a moment of genuine presence.
Originally released in September 2025, Give Me A Kiss introduced listeners to a playful and passionate side of Kean’s artistry. Driven by groovy blues-rock riffs and a flirtatious energy, the song celebrates chemistry, desire, and the simple joy of being drawn to another person.
The newly released music film expands that world through a visually rich narrative brought to life by Aquino’s commanding screen presence and Pacena’s cinematic eye.
The project also marks a reunion between Cipriano and Aquino, who previously appeared together in the hit series Senior High. While audiences first encountered them in a family-oriented dramatic context, Give Me A Kiss presents the pair in a completely different emotional register—one rooted in attraction, tension, and intimacy.
For Pacena, whose work spans both filmmaking and art curation, the visual approach was rooted in creating an experience rather than merely illustrating a song. Through carefully composed imagery, movement, and atmosphere, the music film invites viewers to immerse themselves in feeling rather than explanation.
At its heart, Give Me A Kiss arrives with a simple invitation.
Every day, audiences are given something new to react to—another headline, another debate, another distraction. For a few minutes, Give Me A Kiss asks viewers to step away from the noise and reconnect with something deeply human.
For a few minutes, stop scrolling. Feel something. The official music film for Give Me A Kiss is now available on YouTube.
