To the Top Boys Ready to Heat Up the Dance Floor!

Entertainment Saturday, August 15, 2015

When GMA launched their first ever multi-platform boy band competition - To The Top, it quickly draws a buzz around with the netizens since it will be the first time that a boy band will be formed televised and every week, each member of the chosen finalists will be trimmed down until the final members of the boy band will be chosen.

Ryan Cayabyab is chairs the competition board of judges that includes Moy Ortiz, Sweet Plantado, and OJ Mariano of The CompanY and also act as vocal coaches. Two-time World Hip Hop Champions Philippine Allstars alumni Madelle and Prince Paltu-ob as well as international breakdancing champion Jesse “Reflex” Gotangco, and the Sound Squad of musical arrangers and sound engineers led by Jonathan Ong and his team from Sonic State Audio -- Chino David, Chris anthony Vinzons, and Brian Lotho.

To The Top didn’t conduct open auditions, but the men behind the show invited the best male singer from different schools and organizations to join the auditions to determine the finalists.

The show also documented the journey of the young men from being solo artists or members of singing groups to becoming part of the country’s newest boy band.

All these experiences were seen by the public when GMA made the competition initially available online via www.gmanetwork.com/tothetop. In the program’s webisodes, Julian Trono, who recently underwent intensive training under the KPop system, was the host.

The 25 finalists were later trimmed down to 14. The netizens were tasked to vote for their favorites who were earlier eliminated in the series to become the competition’s wildcards to make up the 18 finalists and they are AJ Ajrouche, Lance Busa, Ken Carpena, Mico Cruz, Cholo dela Cruz, Martin de Vera, Luis Gragera, Joshua Jacobe, MJ Magno, Miko Manguba, Seph Manlapaz, Bryan Olano, JP Palanca, Adrian Pascual, Louie Pedroso, Lharby Policarpio, Edric Ulang, and Chris Yumang.

Online Exclusive: 'To The Top' boys are ready!

These boys are not only singers but they can also make you WOW on the dance floor. The coaches makes it a point that the boys will be honed not only with their singing skills but also dancing skills which is one of the major requirement needed to form a boy band.
