In July, the group dropped its debut album, “Get In The Zone,” just a few days after they were hailed as New Artist of the Year and Artist of the Year in MYX Awards 2020. Their song “Go Up,” which was included in their album, also won Song of the Year at that time.
Other songs in “Get In The Zone” were “Alab,” “Tilahula,” “Love Goes,” “Hanggang Sa Huli,” and “Wag Mong Ikunot Ang Iyong Noo.”
They marked their second anniversary in October.
