Sayang. Bituin Escalante is a really fine singer. But she’s a one-hit wonder in the local music industry. There was never a follow-up to her one hit, Kung Ako Na Lang Sana. Too bad because she’s one of the really good singers we have locally.
I think it’s the looks. Filipinos can be discrimination when it comes to the looks of a lady singer. I mean look at Rhada. She was also one of the really good singers we have but because she’s a plus size, nothing happened to her music career. She’s very pretty. But when a woman is a plus size here in this country, you are confined to doing slapstick comedy!
Here’s Kung Ako Na Lang Sana for your listening pleasure…
The music video was directed by Ryan Agoncillo.
I do hope Star Records will give her another break. Perhaps, even an album of cover songs first to re-introduce her to the buying public. Before another hit like this song.
