Erik Santos and Kyla's powerful FMA performance leaves you wanting for more

Fans and music lovers can attest to the fact that Pop Ballad Royalty, Erik Santos, and the country's R&B Queen, Kyla, are already legends in their own right. So what happens when you put two of some of the most iconic voices in OPM together in one stage? You get a truly special, rare, and unforgettable musical treat that leaves you wanting for more. And the audience composed of music lovers and industry personalities witnessed this with Erik and Kyla's performance of "Pagbigyang Muli" at the recent Filipino Music Awards 2026 held at the SM Mall of Asia Arena.

Of the reactions to the performance, the reaction from veteran producer, songwriter, and the man who penned the song, Jonathan Manalo, encapsulate the sentiment best.

"Seeing them last night at the 2026 Filipino Music Awards at the Mall of Asia Arena, performing this anthem that launched Erik’s career in 2003, still sounding as fresh as ever and putting on a full display of their vocal mastery in their respective genres, was a reminder of just how much talent and artistry these two continue to bring to the stage," Jonathan said on his social media post.

Having only just sang one song that night, fans for sure are left wanting to see more of their pairing. With the performance garnering an overwhelmingly positive response, maybe this could lead to more collaborations between the two down the road.
