Can’t get enough of ‘STUPID IN LOVE’? Then you’re in luck, because multi-platinum Warner recording artist MAX is coming to Manila for three mall shows!

Today’s rising popstar

MAX has been in the music scene for a while now, but his viral bop ‘STUPID IN LOVE’ featuring LE SSERAFIM’s Huh Yunjin has gained him a new level of global popularity and critical acclaim.

He also just released ‘LOVE IN STEREO,’ his third album that caps off a series of beautiful singles. ‘STUPID IN LOVE,’ which recently premiered its official music video, is just one of twelve remarkable hits MAX features here. The no-skip album also contains collaborations with renowned artists, such as ‘IT’S YOU’ featuring keshi, ‘STRINGS’ with JVKE and Bazzi, and ‘BUTTERFLIES’ with Ali Gatie.

Luckily, Filipino fans now have the opportunity to watch this rising popstar perform these well-loved songs! MAX is returning to the Philippines to perform a string of mall shows, namely at the UP Town Center on April 5, at Ayala Malls Manila Bay on April 6, and at One Ayala on April 7. With MAX’s last visit being way back in 2016, fans are surely excited for this highly-anticipated return.

A global phenomenon

MAX’s music is fueled by authenticity, something that has become apparent with his unfiltered, heart-on-sleeve lyrics and handcrafted visuals. The way he invites listeners to be part of his world is what makes him so relatable, which is why his rise to fame comes as no surprise.

One good example is how ‘STUPID IN LOVE’ took the world — including the Philippines, by storm upon release. Right out the gate, the track exploded worldwide with 160 million TikTok views, 60K TikTok video creates, and 4 million streams in less than four days. Within the Philippines alone, the track has already achieved over 3 million streams on Spotify. It’s obvious that Filipinos love songs that come from the heart – something MAX excels at – as the Philippines currently ranks third among MAX’s global fanbase.

The next big thing

There’s no doubt that MAX’s return to the Philippines will show just how much he’s grown as an artist. After all, he has toured the world multiple times over, with recognition from multiple media outfits. This includes being called “A young pop god” by GQ, the “top pop star to watch” by Billboard, and being nominated for “Best New Pop Artist” by iHeartRadio Music Awards. His music continues to send a message of creating safe spaces where everyone can feel accepted, and it’s only a matter of time until MAX reaches greater heights.
