Young singer Angelica Ken could only feel grateful for the trust given to her by network executives who tapped her full potential by casting her in the musical “Lyric and Beat.”

“Siyempre po nakaka-overwhelm ‘yung tiwala ng management, ng Dreamscape sa akin. Lagi ko pong sinasabi sa interview na napakabaguhan ko pa po sa industriya pero ang paniniwala po nila is grabe,” she said during the face-to-face mediacon for the series, last July 19.

(Of course, I am overwhelmed by the trust of the management, of Dreamscape at me. I always say in my interviews that I am so new in the industry but their faith on me is really great.)

With that, Ken promises to be better, to deserve the big break she is getting.

“Ang in return ko po noon is doble sa ini-expect nila. Sana makita nila na hindi sayang ang pagbigay nila ng opportunity (sa akin),” she said.

(In return, I will double my efforts from what they expect of me. I hope they see that the opportunity they gave me is not wasted.)

Ken is one of the most streamed singers in Spotify as her first ever single “Ako Na Lang Muna” has already reached 30 million streams.

Ken is also elated that the song got a cover version on “Idol Philippines” recently. She learned about it when her fans mentioned it to her, tagged the contestant’s performance and uploaded it on social media.

“Nakakatuwa po kasi naibubuhay pa rin hanggang sa ngayon (after) a year and more than three months ang ‘Ako Naman Muna.’ Binibigyan pa rin po nila ng pagpapahalaga,” she said. “I am very thankful na ginagamit nila iyon.”

(It is heartwarming because until now it is still being given life, after a year and three months, the song “Ako Na Lang Muna.” They are giving it importance. I am very thankful that they used it.)

In her first series, Ken plays Virlyn, a talented performer who can play any musical instrument. The show also stars Andrea Brillantes, Seth Fedelin, Darren Espanto, Kyle Echarri, Awra Briguela, Sheen Belarmino and Jeremy G. It starts streaming on iWantTFC, Aug. 10. JB
