Since then, singing has become a central part of pop culture in the Philippines. Events such as reunions, outings, birthday parties, or holidays are never complete without karaoke.

It doesn’t matter if the person isn’t as great as Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, and to name a few as long as the singer gets to enjoy the vibes and indulge with the music.

Apparently, not all Filipinos have the talent for singing. But why some are so good? It’s probably because of the culture since most families have their own karaoke machine at home. In this manner, they might enhance their voice and possibly become good at singing.

Meanwhile, a video of Vivencio Empalmado a.k.a. “TAGAPOK PALABOY Singer Ng Catarman” that caught the attention of netizens is purely a piece of evidence that you should not judge a singer by his/her appearance.

In the 4 minutes and 25 seconds clip, the singing palaboy showcased a one-of-a-kind singing prowess at the same time hitting the high notes of the single.
