Jarren Garcia bares his heart in his freshly dropped extended play (EP) “LUVBOMB,” alongside the music video for its lead single “Runaway” Taglish version.
“It’s about pouring all your love and effort into that one person. I’ve poured my heart and soul into making this EP. I can confidently say this music is more me — it’s more Jarren,” he shared.
The seven-track EP is headlined by “Runaway,” released in both Taglish and English versions. The Taglish version will have an official music video, while the English version is paired with a lyric visualizer streaming on ABS-CBN Star Music’s YouTube channel. Jarren explained that the track was intentionally crafted to blend an international R&B sound with emotions and storytelling that Filipino listeners can easily relate to.
“I also want to connect with the Filipino listeners that’s why most of the songs are mainly Tagalog. We chose ‘Runaway’ as the key song because it has that international sound and making it Tagalog also helps stick to the OPM side of it,” Jarren explained.
Prior to “Runaway,” Jarren released two singles — “GOTCHU” and “Pinaka Pretty” — showcasing his groovy R&B sound. Other tracks in his first EP include “Tatapatin,” “APK (Ang Pahinga Ko),” and “Pinili Kita, Pero.”
Meanwhile, Jarren’s fan club, which is celebrating its second anniversary, launched a free ride program across Metro Manila yesterday (July 23), showing support for their idol’s new project. Four modern jeepneys offered free rides to commuters while playing Jarren’s latest music.
