The StreetBoys Confirmed A 2024 Concert
Formed in 1993, the StreetBoys is a Filipino boy band known for their hit single “Boom Tiyaya.” The group is composed of Vhong Navarro, Jhong Hilario, Sphencer Reyes, Michael Sesmundo, Nicko Manalo, Meynard Marcellano, Christopher Cruz, Joey Andres, Joseph De Leon, Jayvee Amurao, and Winferd Chua.
The group announced on social media on May 9, 2024, that they are collaborating with Ogie Alcasid’s A-Team and Director, John Pratts. This exciting collaboration will see the A-Team and Director Pratts working closely with the StreetBoys to create a unique and unforgettable concert experience for their fans.
Following the announcement, the date of the concert was revealed: November 8 at the New Frontier Theater in Quezon City. Ogie shared during A-Team’s trade launch in Taguig, “Napakaganda. The history of Streetboys kwe-kwento nila. I’m happy because the fans are so excited. I came before them, but I remember when they were starting.” [Translation: “It’s beautiful. They will tell us the history of StreetBoys.”]
*NSYNC To Release A New Album?
After a mini reunion in Trolls 3, the 90s American boy band is rumored to launch a new album. Members JC Chasez, Joey Fatone, Chris Kirkpatrick, Lance Bass, and Justin Timberlake were said to be in a bidding war with major music labels such as Live Nation, Universal Music Group, AEG, and Warner Music Group to produce a new hit for the band. The last stand-alone single by *NSYNC was released in 2002.
Aside from a possible new album, a stadium tour for the band was also the talk of the town after Live Nation, and AEG attempted to reach out to the band a month ago.
