The Mentor

 

Recently, The Voice Kids revealed the last coach to complete this year's mentors. A'tin and Hatdogs rejoiced to finally receive the confirmation everyone had hoped for. This is not just a great way for SB19's leader to be introduced to more people, but also to share his talent and wisdom with young aspiring talents. Aside from being the chief songwriter and composer of the group, all the members of SB19 have always been vocal about how Pablo helped them along the way, especially in honing their talents.

Pablo once said that being a leader is being a parent and assuming both roles; a mother and a father. You must be firm in handling your group and making decisions, yet you must be nurturing and caring, too. You must be the first to test the waters and guarantee safety for everyone. With how the group's career is going, as well as each member's solo career, we can confidently say that he has done a good job as a leader. Now, it's time for him to share his knowledge with younger generations.

Pablo is a rare gem. He has a massive talent and can excel in anything he does, yet he mostly enjoys sharing his craft. When others would grab all opportunities to climb to the top, even the negative ones, Pablo is the happiest working with others. His genuine love for music overpowers his hunger for fame and glamour. His selflessness allowed everyone around him to shine as brightly as they could. In his interview with The Ripple, he said being on top is sad as you would be alone there. He would rather humble himself and help as many people as he could to reach success.

The Void Kids is the perfect avenue for him to hone young talents outside their company, 1z Entertainment. Any child who would be a part of his team is lucky for he, or she would be under the wing of a great artist. His knowledge and vision are truly ahead of his time. His goal for Philippine music is unconventional and is still hard to accept for many, but he is unbudging, unbending, and is never afraid to take risks. What he does is revolutionary, and in the years to come, people will remember him as one of the pioneers of the new breed of talent the country has.

Having been able to create hits that would go down in history and will be remembered for generations, his skills in creating beautiful music, and developing the natural talent an artist has, like what he did for his group, Pablo has the caliber to be a The Voice coach. This was seen by the people behind the internationally acclaimed singing contest. According to Inquirer.net, Pablo's meticulousness and his musical command made him stand out. They saw the value of having someone like him in the talent show, especially in helping young talents.

In an interview with Inquirer and other select reporters, Ms. Gigi Santiago-Lara, the VP for Musical Variety and Specials said they saw how Pablo related to the talents. They noticed his meticulous nature when it comes to music, and his command of what he thinks is good, something that a talent coach should have. Now that his participation in the talent show has been confirmed, his fans are excited to see how he would teach his mentees. People who don't know Pablo probably see him as someone strict and serious, or even scary, which is true when he is all business. What casuals don't know is that he also has a childish side. He is playful and inquisitive, curious about many things, and is always appreciative of even the smallest gestures.

All we can say now is good luck and WE WANT YOU, Coach Pablo!
