PINAYUHAN ng singer-songwriter na si Rico Blanco nitong Lunes ang lahat ng artists at managers sa music industry.
Sa isang Twitter post, sinabi ni Rico: “Listen artists and managers. When [you] confirm a gig, no matter how small, [you] have a responsibility to HONOR [your] commitment even if another gig comes along later on”.
Dagdag pa niya, ang mga artists at managers na nagkakansela ng maliliit na gigs para sa mas malalaki ay “unprofessional” at “cheap.”
“It’s a very small scene — ditching a small gig [for] a bigger [one] is very unprofessional and makes [you] look really cheap,” aniya.
Si Rico, dating frontman ng Rivermaya, ang personalidad sa likod ng Your Universe, Antukin, at Bye Bye Na. Halos 20 taon na siya sa Philippine music industry.
