Billy has long scaled the American pop market, the most difficult to penetrate among Asian artists. Although Billy is known as a Filipino-American act, getting noticed in the States has been an arduous climb. Billy, of course, has made waves and is considered a top artist in Europe and for a time lorded over record sales in France.

US label signs up Billy
By KAYE VILLAGOMEZ
Billy Crawford is penetrating US pop market anytime soon by signing up with Interscope Records, the same label housing records of the Black Eyed Peas, Maroon 5, Pussycat Dolls, Shery Crow, Gwen Stefani and other mainstream American artists. "It's really a huge opportunity that I hope to be successful with.
If i am not mistaken,he is under MCA now after severing ties with his European label V2 in 2006. If i am not mistaken, MCA is now called Universal Music Group.
lol@ european label V2. alam mo ba ang history ng V2? parang ikaw, rejected din. nakapunta ka na ba sa europe? alam mo ba ang review about v2? mahirap makipag usap sa IGNORANTE. akala alam lahat pero deep inside, tanga. hoy, mayabang ka masyado. bakit di ka na lang pumusta? at oo, galit ako sa ignorante at mayabang na malamang naman eh wala nang makain dyan sa Pilipinas pero akala mo kung sino.
ang yabang mo iha.kilala mo ba ang tao at alam mo na wala siyang makain? ang taas ng hangin mo. bakit di mo gayahin ang idol mong si KC? very humble! bwahaha. now i know why you are so freaking mad at billy. tsk tsk. taas ng lipad mo oi! now you are unmasked!
hahaha. ma'am check nyo po previous posts. pumusta na po ata siya. LOL. masyado kang high blood eh. konting lamig! pagpasensyahan mo na. alam mo namang kaming mga pilipinong nakatira sa pilipinas mga walang makain at ignorante. mabuti nga at nagpo post ka at marami kaming nalalaman sayo.LOl
oo, galit lang ako sa mahilig makipagtalo na wala namang alam. tulad mo... idol si KC? Haha. Kayo nagumpisang magmayabang hindi ako. Kayo itong akala mo kung sino pero walang alam
This will be a good bet. because Billy has talents. But i want to prove my point that i know what im talking about. This is going to be a good bet because he is good. But for the US market and to be signed by major labels; looking at what americans look for, i want to see me wrong on this. So people, pay attention. Lets play a game. This is not a joke on my part.
This will be a good bet. In 5 years, if he got a major US label to sponsor him. Major labels like RCA, Universal, UK label Virgin, then the person/people im betting against will get to keep the money. Im stopping by the Philippines in April for 2 weeks, then Sydney in Dec of '08. around sept or Oct in Paris. To all of those people in those 3 countries who wants to fill in, let me know and we will work on the contract. Tig 1000 dollars for each country. This is for real
Billy is already under MCA, otherwise known as Universal Music Group. his first u.s. album in 1998 was under V2 Music distributed in the u.s.a. by BMG.
atsaka, stupud boy, sabi ko yung pusta is good from te day you placed your bet. sinabi ko bang kasama yung years before and prsent? tanga ka noh? atsaka, yung v2, yung director nyan used to work for richard branson. alamin mo kung anong nangyari. ignorante ka lang kaya mahirap makipagtalo sayo. alam mo ba ang implication sa business when you got fired from a major label? i bet hindi kasi pure pinoy ka mahilig mag sight ng opinion na wala naman sa US. Marunong pa preo ignorante
first flopped album. pumunta ka sa US, walang may kilala sa kanya. wag ka nang makipagtalo eh nasa pinas ka naman. makikipagtalo pa eh sinasabi na ngang hindi sikat dito si billy. pumusta ka na lang. o baka walang maipusta. wala k namang trabaho dyan malamang.pero maalam daw sa US music market hahaha
mas maganda na yung makulit kesa nagmamagaling. akala mo kilalang kilala nyo ang estado ni Billy eh rejected naman yan sa US. indi kilala. Pero kung i boost up nyo akala mo kung sinong sikat. Tanga lang kayo dyan mahilig magmagaling pero ignorante
kung di pa sikat si Billy sa US ngayon sana sumikat din siya kase sobrang talented nya...marami syang fans dito sa Canada lalo na we can now watch him sa TFC...we'll support him all the way like buying his CD's...si Justin Timberlake nga sumikat eh di hamak naman na mas magaling si Billy don noh..opinyon ko lang to no...
For all those who fkn hate me because i have an opinion that Billy will not make it to the US for my own reasons; for those people who can't respect my insights, well FK you and your ignorance. I didnt say that he is not talented. HE IS. But I THINK AND BELIEVE that he will not make it here. UUwi ako ng April.Kung gusto nyo pustahan na lang. Pag nagka album si Billy, sa inyo pera. 1000 dollars and i mean this shit!!!
The money will be held by some escrow service, in that way whoever wins would get his money right away from the escrow. 1000 dollars in place as bets in each countries. Philippines, AU, And i will verify the month for EU. Post a comment here if you are in and let me know if your money is ready and we will place them into escrow and begin the game.
oi ok toh. sige madam. game ako dito.hehehe. pm me the details. pero unahan na kita, billy will be releasing a u.s. album this year around march. that is why he has been in the u.s.a since october of 07.
Again, may nasabi ba akong household name sa u.s.a si billy? parang wala ata! and since you claim that you know what the u.s. public wants just by looking the talents, why dont you quit your job and be a talent scout? mas malaki ang pera dun honey! if i had your "talent" that's what i would do. i should be a millionaire by now. hehehe
actually iha, isa ako sa shareholders ng ilang production companies dito. Physical therapist din ako. So alam ko sinasabi ko. wag mo kong tuturuan kasi malamang mas maayos ang buhay ko syo. Ganito n lang. Uuwi ako ng April. Kung gusto mo magpustahan tayo. Maghanap ka ng babakas sayo kasi malamang wala kang pera. 1000 dollars. 5 year kung magka Us album si Billy, sayo pera
masyadong matagal iha! 5 years?! 1-2 years lang,ok na ko. 1thousand us. dollars ba kamo? baka kasi hongkong dollars ang sinasabi mo eh. hehehe. call ako dyan! yan lang pala eh. wag kang mag alala sa akin. may pera ako!!! this is so easy just like taking a candy from a baby. thanks in advance!hehehe
By the way, look this up - PROSCOUT. It is based here in the US. Tapos tingnan mo rin kung sino sino ang mga sumikat dahil dyan. Yung iba, hindi sikat sa ibang bansa pero sa US oo. PROSCOUT. That will tell you what i know and what you, the ignorant one doesnt. What i do there? NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS and YOU WILL NEVER KNOW...
tsaka iha, besides those careers i mentioned, have you heard of "second life" sa web? you can make around 160 thousand dollars a year iha. Bakit di mo subukan? Kung madiskarte ka lang na tulad ko baka maging katulad din kita iha. Ignorante ka lang. And how dare yo assume what i earn? Pinagtatawanan lang kita. My goodness. Kung alam mo lang kung anong buhay mo vs buhay ko. Yun lang
huh?! i can't be like you! ang galing mo eh. biro mo, isang tingin lang sa talent,alam mo na agad kung magugustuhan ng american market. if i were you, hindi ako magtitiis nsa $160k a year! sa talent mong yan, you could have earned millions in dollars in a year.masyado kang humble! ako natatawa sayo! sa galing mong yan, nagtitiis ka sa 160k per year?! LOL
Josh ko! why oh why did i bother to answer the query on the American Idol thing!kala ko kc concern pinoy yung nagtatanong and wants billy to strut his stuff for the whole american public 2 see. yun pala critic lang ni billy!!!LOL.now i read again the 1st post & read between the lines. hindi nga concern, critic lang!tsk. sorry dude to burst your bubble, billy didn't join not because he is afraid of failure nor does he know he isn't good enough as you say. he is just INELIGIBLE. LOL
Para patunayan ko sayo na alamko sinasabi ko, ganun na lang. between Charice and billy, 5 years. if charice got an album in 5 yrs time, i win. pag si billy, u win. I FKN know what talent is when i see it. Now fk off. And the statement u quoted, i know Billy has struggledand did thing to get discovered here and it was a failure. Opinyon ko yun that he is not going to make it here. Opinion mo yan so stick by it.
CORRECTION ABOUT THE BET, album dito sa US ha. produced by RCA, Universal, kahit British label na kamo ( e.g Virgin ) If that happens in 5 years time, I will give the money to those im betting against. if you are in, let me know and i will give you the details of the bet. meron din tayong contract na pipirmahan, ipapagawa ko dito. Otherwise, this ebate is over. Tingnan natin dito yung mga nagmamagaling....
Bilib ako sayo! alam mo lahat!! hahaha. are you really serious with your bet?! 5 years is too long iha. why not make it 1-2 years from now?! if Billy releases an album in the u.s. produced by a major label, i win in 1-2 years time i win, if charise releases an album ahead of billy, you win!
sure, 1 to 2 years. im serious as a heart attack. i will contact you for infos on how to place the bet. Yes, US dollars. Major labels lang sa US, Virgin rcords sa UK i guess can count. I will let you know when the contract is finished and we will proceed with placing the bet. Pag nanalo ka, lahat ng statements mo dito, tama. At magiging mali ako about my opinions with Billy na hindi sya pang US market...
...nku chris brown pren..watch his video nlang kung marunong kau tumingin ng total at top performer..nku..nku..uu nga mgling den c billy..pero sa mga effort na nila2bas..chris brown..
o siya iha, si chris brown na ang pinakamagaling, pinakamalupet, ang pinaka sa lahat. para matigil ka lang. magtayo ka na rin ng fans club nya sa pilinas at gagawin kang president for life!LOL
eh kung confident talaga tong si ...ano nga bang name nya? eh galing dito yan sa US, he could have had auditioned at American Idol but he didnt. its either he knos he is not that good or he is afraid of failure...
ang alam ko hindi pinapayagan makasali sa american idol ang mga performer na sa kanikanilang bansa...kaya meron satin pinoy o pinoy dines qualified...ng malaman ng artista dito..sino nga ba yun?????
sagutin ulit kita. are you sure he is qualified to audition? first thing, he already released an album around the u.s.a. in 1998. he actually fronted for nsync for a year in their u.s. tour. bakit siya mag aaudition when he already has an international contract and sold millions in the other part of the atlantic. qualified pa ba siya?
yes you are correct again, he was a front act for Nsync for a year in their u.s. tour. i think it was in 1998 or 1999. that's why he became friends them with them.
lol. even with his front acts with nsync, i have travelled all over the us for job purposes, billy was never a household name. You are there and i am here. i know what im talking about. Billy wont make it to the US for a lot of reasons and i dont want to elaborate them to you, itll be a waste of time
LOL. galeng mo iha. talent promoter ka ba and you are judging your fellow filipino already? you were babbling why billy never joined american idol now that you got your answer, you are now citing reasons why he can't make it in the u.s.a. actually you can cite the reasons, if they are valid. para naman mashare mo ang know how mo.hehehehe. well, sinabi bang household name si billy sa u.s.a? tsk tsk tsk. good luck to charice if she makes it. good for her.
hindi.hindi lang ako kaignoranteng katulad mo. i just happened to fkn spend my years all around the world ate. yun lang. at oo, si charice, shes a true talent. kung gusto mo pupusta ako sayo na in a few years shell make it here in the states. si billy, talented pero hindi lang siya ang cup of tea ng mga tao dito. sa mga kaibigan ko na galing yan. mapa itim man puti o british dito sa U.S. Im not judging Filipinos but they just dont take critiques too well. Tulad mo na ignorante yun lang
And i dont have to elaborate to you what i do here.But rest assured, mas di hamak na maayos ang buhay ko sayo. Ikaw, where are you now? Do you have a good life? to state " where is Banig now?" May maayos ka bang buhay? Pamilya mo ok naman? Career mo, maayos ba trabaho mo dyan?
fronted nsync, that would have been his promotion. Even after that, he still didnt make it. there is a big difference between Charice Pempengco and Billy, if you know what i mean. Now, im not down on Filipinos, but Billy - he is just..he doesnt have it. Charice, give me a few years and you will see what i mean. I know what americans wnat with just one look at the talents.
making it in the u.s.a. is very tough. afterall it is the entertainment capital of the world. a lot of big stars took years even decades to make it. so please, you are NOT an entertainment guru to say that billy will NOT make it.pero bow ako sa'yo, coz u know "what americans want with just one look at the talents".galeng! LOL. That kind of reception was also accorded to Banig when she guested at arsenio hall's show. but where is Banig now? but i do hope charice makes it, pinoy pride!
The problem with banig was she kind of stopped chasing her dreams. She went to school and as a straight A student. At that time she thought it was the right thing to do, and we cant blame her for wanting to go to school than to pursue her singing career. It was a matter of choice. And yes, i know what im talking about.
And i was not judging the "fellow filipinos" I was just insighting my opinion. When i asked this hospital where i know a few people in the medical field of different races, i asked and showed them videos of Charice and Billy and who they think would might make it here big and they said the little girl whould. The "guy", they said just simply dont have the "it" factor. And yes, i spent fkn years in here to know what they like and not.
Gusto mo pustahan pa tayo kung may ipupusta ka. What 3 taon? 5 taon? Matanda na yan si Billy and i saw him struggle here. Hanggang ngayon wala pa rin syang album. Yun eh totoo lang. tamaan wag magagalit. kamag anak ka siguro ni Billy noh? LoL. Hindi ko sinabing hindi talented si Billy. pero ganito na lang. Pupusta ako sayo. 1000 dollars? 5 years yun. Pag nagka album dito si Billy, sayo ang pera
teka. teka bakit galit na galit ka? LOL. you were expressing your opinion and i am expressing mine. akala ko ba i don't take critique well mukhang it can also said about you. FYI, madam. billy already had a u.s. album in 1998. it even got a good review sa rolling stones magazine. so sa pusta mo pa lang. olats ka na. 1998 pa nagka album sa u.s.a si billy crawford!!! LOL
stupid. major label. idiot. v2 is a rejected UK label. ignorant. And , tanga ka talaga kasi universal in the states is universal pa rin. how stupid. LOL
si carol banawa ata sinasabi mo eh. sabi she was disqualifed coz she is NOT a u.s. citizen. i wonder, did they not check the requirements first before auditioning? or this was just their alibi why she didn't pass the audition?
are you kidding me?! kailan lang ba nagkaroon ng american idol? eh 1998 nakapagrelease na ng album si billy sa u.s.a. he actually was dubbed by some critics as "the next big thing" ng 1998. in 1999 he already made it BIG in western europe. so why would he auditioned in a talent search that was launched in the early 2000s when he already sold millions in europe in the previous years. esep esep!!!
yes american idol was launched in 2002 in the u.s.a. this originated from the u.k. tv show "Pop Idol". in 2002, billy crawford was already a big player in the western europe music scene. he is NOT qualified since he has an existing contract and already had a hit in the u.s.a in 1998. on his 2nd album, he moved in france where he became a bigger star. i wonder why filipinos don't know this?
OK. ok. to answer your query, why billy never auditioned for american idol is because he is INELIGIBLE. Those who are INELIGIBLE are 1: those who made the top 40 or farther of past seasons 2: people employed with affiliates of Fox, Fremantle, 19, (e.g., its sponsors, subsidiaries and parent companies)
3: those holding recording or management contracts and 4: those who are not US citizens or permanent residents.
Billy falls on the 1st and 3rd ineligibility. he already had a hit in the u.s.a. ("Mary Lopez") in 1998 via his self titled debut album and had a recording and management contract with V2 and now with MCA.
thanks Hinuki for the info. yeah,i'm sure if billy was qualified he would have auditioned sa AI. i read b4 his bio na he was discovered in the u.s.a. when he won a talent search in texas when he was 15 years old. from thereon, he auditioned to all major labels in the u.s.a. kaya nagkaroon siya ng recording contract sa u.s. when he was barely 16.
if u think that Billy is not that good then keep it to yourself...mas maraming naniniwala na napaka galing ni Billy kase di naman kame bulag...alam din namin kung sino ang may talent at wala noh...we'll support him all the way we'll buy his CDs...maraming fans si Billy dito sa Canada at pati na din sa LAS VEgas...idol namin yan eh..i'll buy 10 or more of his CDs...
iha, bakit ka ba nangagampanya for chris brown? alam na naming magaling siya. pero nagagalingan din kami kay billy. may problema ba dun? quiet ka na lang. afterall this is a video of billy. go ka sa video ni chris brown. tapos praise him to high heaven! go ahead! no one is stopping you!harharhar
Pero astig talaga si b.crawford.. buwiset na moonwalk yan kulang nalang pumunta siya ng milkyway eh.. hahah... LuuuuuFETtttttttttt... Payag kayo cris brown daw kulang daw effort ni billy ... dont think so.. basta ako milkywaywalk ahaha
hehe i really enjoyed this part of the show, after the neyo medley thats when he got the crowd goin, everyone went crazy dancin and partyin all night long and im there in the front u can see me at 2:51 ako ung nka white holdin the camera, hes such a nice guy in person, hes like a brother to me pareho kme half pinoy half white, backstage daming artista dun, great night! after the show the fun didnt stop there cos i went straight to padis point gettin down on the dancefloor hehe!!
sana ipalabas sa GMA para naman mapanood nung mga hindi nakapanood sa concert...galing talaga ni billy crawford and also yung mga movers, ang laki ng improvement nila sa pagsasayaw...galing ni mharyss mag-choreograph
this gotta be the highlight of the concert. the whole coliseum just went crazy. dang! his moonwalk is soo damn amazing. naisip ko nga eh... tao ba to?! hahaha
go go go billy...we luv u...

Bilib ako sayo! alam mo lahat!! hahaha. are you really serious with your bet?! 5 years is too long iha. why not make it 1-2 years from now?! if Billy releases an album in the u.s. produced by a major label, i win in 1-2 years time i win, if charise releases an album ahead of billy, you win!
Hinuki 4 years ago
sure, 1 to 2 years. im serious as a heart attack. i will contact you for infos on how to place the bet. Yes, US dollars. Major labels lang sa US, Virgin rcords sa UK i guess can count. I will let you know when the contract is finished and we will proceed with placing the bet. Pag nanalo ka, lahat ng statements mo dito, tama. At magiging mali ako about my opinions with Billy na hindi sya pang US market...
jennypotzkie5 4 years ago
BILLY is damn good...kahit saan pang market pwede talaga si Billy...

eh kung confident talaga tong si ...ano nga bang name nya? eh galing dito yan sa US, he could have had auditioned at American Idol but he didnt. its either he knos he is not that good or he is afraid of failure...
jennypotzkie5 4 years ago
ang alam ko hindi pinapayagan makasali sa american idol ang mga performer na sa kanikanilang bansa...kaya meron satin pinoy o pinoy dines qualified...ng malaman ng artista dito..sino nga ba yun?????
cessjayz 4 years ago
no. i think he has dual citizenship. not that they would not allow him to audition, i think. i dont know why he didnt...
jennypotzkie5 4 years ago
sagutin ulit kita. are you sure he is qualified to audition? first thing, he already released an album around the u.s.a. in 1998. he actually fronted for nsync for a year in their u.s. tour. bakit siya mag aaudition when he already has an international contract and sold millions in the other part of the atlantic. qualified pa ba siya?
ninaunown 4 years ago
yes you are correct again, he was a front act for Nsync for a year in their u.s. tour. i think it was in 1998 or 1999. that's why he became friends them with them.
Hinuki 4 years ago
lol. even with his front acts with nsync, i have travelled all over the us for job purposes, billy was never a household name. You are there and i am here. i know what im talking about. Billy wont make it to the US for a lot of reasons and i dont want to elaborate them to you, itll be a waste of time
jennypotzkie5 4 years ago
LOL. galeng mo iha. talent promoter ka ba and you are judging your fellow filipino already? you were babbling why billy never joined american idol now that you got your answer, you are now citing reasons why he can't make it in the u.s.a. actually you can cite the reasons, if they are valid. para naman mashare mo ang know how mo.hehehehe. well, sinabi bang household name si billy sa u.s.a? tsk tsk tsk. good luck to charice if she makes it. good for her.
ninaunown 4 years ago
hindi.hindi lang ako kaignoranteng katulad mo. i just happened to fkn spend my years all around the world ate. yun lang. at oo, si charice, shes a true talent. kung gusto mo pupusta ako sayo na in a few years shell make it here in the states. si billy, talented pero hindi lang siya ang cup of tea ng mga tao dito. sa mga kaibigan ko na galing yan. mapa itim man puti o british dito sa U.S. Im not judging Filipinos but they just dont take critiques too well. Tulad mo na ignorante yun lang
jennypotzkie5 4 years ago
And i dont have to elaborate to you what i do here.But rest assured, mas di hamak na maayos ang buhay ko sayo. Ikaw, where are you now? Do you have a good life? to state " where is Banig now?" May maayos ka bang buhay? Pamilya mo ok naman? Career mo, maayos ba trabaho mo dyan?
jennypotzkie5 4 years ago
fronted nsync, that would have been his promotion. Even after that, he still didnt make it. there is a big difference between Charice Pempengco and Billy, if you know what i mean. Now, im not down on Filipinos, but Billy - he is just..he doesnt have it. Charice, give me a few years and you will see what i mean. I know what americans wnat with just one look at the talents.
jennypotzkie5 4 years ago
making it in the u.s.a. is very tough. afterall it is the entertainment capital of the world. a lot of big stars took years even decades to make it. so please, you are NOT an entertainment guru to say that billy will NOT make it.pero bow ako sa'yo, coz u know "what americans want with just one look at the talents".galeng! LOL. That kind of reception was also accorded to Banig when she guested at arsenio hall's show. but where is Banig now? but i do hope charice makes it, pinoy pride!
ninaunown 4 years ago
The problem with banig was she kind of stopped chasing her dreams. She went to school and as a straight A student. At that time she thought it was the right thing to do, and we cant blame her for wanting to go to school than to pursue her singing career. It was a matter of choice. And yes, i know what im talking about.
jennypotzkie5 4 years ago
And i was not judging the "fellow filipinos" I was just insighting my opinion. When i asked this hospital where i know a few people in the medical field of different races, i asked and showed them videos of Charice and Billy and who they think would might make it here big and they said the little girl whould. The "guy", they said just simply dont have the "it" factor. And yes, i spent fkn years in here to know what they like and not.
jennypotzkie5 4 years ago
Gusto mo pustahan pa tayo kung may ipupusta ka. What 3 taon? 5 taon? Matanda na yan si Billy and i saw him struggle here. Hanggang ngayon wala pa rin syang album. Yun eh totoo lang. tamaan wag magagalit. kamag anak ka siguro ni Billy noh? LoL. Hindi ko sinabing hindi talented si Billy. pero ganito na lang. Pupusta ako sayo. 1000 dollars? 5 years yun. Pag nagka album dito si Billy, sayo ang pera
jennypotzkie5 4 years ago
teka. teka bakit galit na galit ka? LOL. you were expressing your opinion and i am expressing mine. akala ko ba i don't take critique well mukhang it can also said about you. FYI, madam. billy already had a u.s. album in 1998. it even got a good review sa rolling stones magazine. so sa pusta mo pa lang. olats ka na. 1998 pa nagka album sa u.s.a si billy crawford!!! LOL

stupid. major label. idiot. v2 is a rejected UK label. ignorant. And , tanga ka talaga kasi universal in the states is universal pa rin. how stupid. LOL
jennypotzkie5 4 years ago
si carol banawa ata sinasabi mo eh. sabi she was disqualifed coz she is NOT a u.s. citizen. i wonder, did they not check the requirements first before auditioning? or this was just their alibi why she didn't pass the audition?
ninaunown 4 years ago
are you kidding me?! kailan lang ba nagkaroon ng american idol? eh 1998 nakapagrelease na ng album si billy sa u.s.a. he actually was dubbed by some critics as "the next big thing" ng 1998. in 1999 he already made it BIG in western europe. so why would he auditioned in a talent search that was launched in the early 2000s when he already sold millions in europe in the previous years. esep esep!!!
ninaunown 4 years ago
yes american idol was launched in 2002 in the u.s.a. this originated from the u.k. tv show "Pop Idol". in 2002, billy crawford was already a big player in the western europe music scene. he is NOT qualified since he has an existing contract and already had a hit in the u.s.a in 1998. on his 2nd album, he moved in france where he became a bigger star. i wonder why filipinos don't know this?
Hinuki 4 years ago
OK. ok. to answer your query, why billy never auditioned for american idol is because he is INELIGIBLE. Those who are INELIGIBLE are 1: those who made the top 40 or farther of past seasons 2: people employed with affiliates of Fox, Fremantle, 19, (e.g., its sponsors, subsidiaries and parent companies)
Hinuki 4 years ago
3: those holding recording or management contracts and 4: those who are not US citizens or permanent residents.
Billy falls on the 1st and 3rd ineligibility. he already had a hit in the u.s.a. ("Mary Lopez") in 1998 via his self titled debut album and had a recording and management contract with V2 and now with MCA.
clear?!
Hinuki 4 years ago
thanks Hinuki for the info. yeah,i'm sure if billy was qualified he would have auditioned sa AI. i read b4 his bio na he was discovered in the u.s.a. when he won a talent search in texas when he was 15 years old. from thereon, he auditioned to all major labels in the u.s.a. kaya nagkaroon siya ng recording contract sa u.s. when he was barely 16.

if u think that Billy is not that good then keep it to yourself...mas maraming naniniwala na napaka galing ni Billy kase di naman kame bulag...alam din namin kung sino ang may talent at wala noh...we'll support him all the way we'll buy his CDs...maraming fans si Billy dito sa Canada at pati na din sa LAS VEgas...idol namin yan eh..i'll buy 10 or more of his CDs...
