Multi-awarded singer, actor, and all-around creative force James Reid has officially dropped his new single “ Pahinga ,” featuring pop hitmaker TJ Monterde . The soul-stirring collaboration serves as the focus track off the jgh (Deluxe) EP , released today under Sony Music Entertainment and Careless Music . Produced by James Reid and Brian Lotho and co-written by both artists with Jason Marvin and TJ Monterde , “ Pahinga ” offers a refreshing take on love’s quiet resilience. The track doubles as a searing ballad that reflects the maturity of lovers during difficult moments, not by fighting harder but by pausing with care.  According to James, “Pahinga” doesn’t demand resolution through drama; it seeks solace in stillness. The song essays the quiet understanding between partners who, in the wake of emotional storms, choose to pause, breathe, and stay for love. “It began with a real-life experience,” James recounts a previous encounter, which became the inspiration in writing the ...

James Reid has officially released his highly anticipated new EP, jgh , under Sony Music Entertainment and Careless Music .  The 6-track record gives an intimate glimpse into his past and present life, chronicling how he has matured all these years, both as an artist and as a person. Short for “just got home,” jgh also marks a significant moment in Reid’s musical evolution, symbolizing his return to a place of peace and serenity, lyrically and sonically speaking. With a blend of pop, R&B, and OPM sensibilities, the EP captures Reid at his most vulnerable, rediscovering the earnest, grounded parts of his identity that he may have lost touch with and learning to forgive himself and accept the flaws that came with it. “My home is a reflection of myself,” says James Reid. “It’s filled with things I’ve gathered along my journey and decorated with memories. It’s been another crazy year, and now that I’m home, I have a lot of stories to tell.” Written and produced by Reid alongside...

  James Reid continues to earworm his way to pop ubiquity with the release of “ Mirasol ”—out today via Sony Music Entertainment .  His latest single not only oozes with undeniable charisma but also reinstates his potential as a hitmaker of first-rate caliber, boasting an impressive run of inescapable chart-toppers in the 2010s. According to James, the song is about falling in love with a sunflower and how romance is something that requires appreciation, protection, and understanding. “Love is an organic process and needs to grow naturally,” he adds. “Mirasol” is co-written by James and Alison Shore , an R&B artist whose work brims with effortless cool and ‘90s suave. Both accomplished artists thought of using the sunflower as a metaphor “for a relationship that gives off an air of sweet summer romance and innocence.” As James explains it further, “I want to connect on a different level with my fans that I haven’t been able to do before. Writing in Tagalog (Filipino) was...

  Following the resurgence in popularity of his OPM smash “ Randomantic ,” James Reid returns to his mellow, pop-leaning roots with the release of “ Sandal ,” his new single under Sony Music Entertainment and Careless .

On “Sandal,” he is back with another serenade that has so much potential on both the commercial and artistic front. “I just wanted to reconnect with my roots in music, blending my past music with my new sound and writing style,” the award-winning singer-songwriter and label mogul admits. “It’s also been a long-time request from my fans. Most of the songs in my new EP are written in Filipino.” The recording superstar wrote the track together with Luke April of the Davao-...

My notes on This Time: 1. I could easily relate to Ava's (Nadine Lustre) hate for summer. It was bad enough that the six-pack abs that I wished for last Christmas did not magically show up this month in time for Laboracay (I hate you Santa!), this was also my dreaded season of extreme sunshine and salty sweating. Her reason was completely different from mine, of course: her assumed childhood boyfriend Coby only visited (and left her) every summer, but hey, if James Reid (How to be you po?) were to spend time with anyone even for just a day, that person would be eternally thankful. Show some gratitude girl! (You didn't even wish that from Santa!)

Every night, fans religiously stay glued to their TV screens to catch the development in the romance between Clark and Leah and how they are trying to conquer the challenges that keep them apart.
