Vocal powerhouse Stell Ajero, member of mega successful boy group SB19, has made his highly-anticipated solo debut with single, “ROOM,” which was released on June 14. The Michael Jackson/Bruno Mars sonically infused track was written by fellow member, PABLO, and produced by PABLO and his brother, josue – better known together as RADKIDZ. Stell doesn’t disappoint with his debut single as he showcases his impressive, strong vocals and how he’s able to perfectly control his voice to hit incredible notes making the execution of the song flow beautifully. “ROOM” also includes a dance break bit where the singer is able to show off his best moves, further cementing him to be known as an all-around performer.
Along with its release on all music streaming platforms worldwide, “ROOM” is also accompanied by a ultra sexy and visually stunning music video saturated with just the right amount of bright neon colors perfectly matching the tone of the track and reflects Stell’s shiny personality that fans adore him for. The story behind the visual tells of a singer going to an audition at an open mic night in a bar, where he transforms into a powerful performer impressing the dancers and club staff and features SB19’s real life back-up dancers, SKOUTS, Tita Baby, Lance Reblando, It’s truly a whole new persona that Stell has never shown before and he’s owning it! The singer serves as the video’s executive director, while other fellow SB19 member, Justin, took on the role of creative director alongside Xi-Anne Avanceña.
In a post shared to his social media, “ROOM” unlocks your true self – “The pulsating dance anthem has hypnotic lyricism and a funk-pop melody, a provocation to liberation and a manifesto to celebrate one’s authenticity and dance to the rhythm of your own heartbeat.”
A’TIN (SB19’s fanbase) and Berries (Stell’s fanbase) have been looking forward to Stell’s solo debut as he is the last member of the group to release his own body of work and show the world his individual musical colors. Since the release of the song, it has already made its way onto various music charts globally including charting No. 1 on iTunes Philippines just a few hours after it debuted.
Following the release of “ROOM,” Stell has a jam-packed schedule over the course of the next few weeks including being the opening act for the upcoming David Foster concert in Manila on June 18, embarking on a US/Canada tour from June 22 – June 30 with Erik Santos for the Milestone Tour, and a two-night concert in Manila at the end of July with fellow The Voice judge, Julie Ann San Jose.
