Background

Maki gained widespread recognition in 2024 with the release of his song "Dilaw" (Yellow) on May 24. [1] The song topped local Spotify and Billboard charts and even made its way onto the global Spotify chart. It became the third OPM song in history to achieve this, following Juan Karlos' "Ere" and gins&melodies' "Babaero" featuring Hev Abi. The school-themed music video for "Dilaw" featured Bini member Maloi Ricalde. Maki shared that the song had been in his vault since August 2023, waiting for the right moment to be released. [2] On August 30, Maki released a single titled "Namumula" (Blush). [3]

On November 29 and 30, 2024, Maki held his first solo concert, titled "Maki-Concert", [a] at the New Frontier Theater in Quezon City, during which he performed one of his upcoming songs, "Bughaw" (Blue), and performed parts of another upcoming single, "Itim Na Ulap" (Black Cloud). [4] "Bughaw" was released on December 1, 2024. [5]

Release

During the launch of the music video for "Bughaw" on March 12, 2025, Maki said that "Dilaw", "Namumula" and "Bughaw" belonged to a trilogy of color-inspired love songs created as part of his upcoming first full-length album, titled Kolorcoaster. [6] [7] He also announced that the album would include a slowed-down version of "Dilaw". [8] A component single, "Kahel na Langit" (Orange Sky), was released in June 2025. [9]

While performing at the Alagang Suki Fest 2025 concert at the Araneta Coliseum on July 31, 2025, Maki announced that Kolorcoaster would be released on September 19, 2025, and would consist of 10 songs about colors. [10] At the same time, the album's cover art was released on Instagram showing a colorful circle with a star. The album is to be released under Tarsier Records. [11]

On August 17, 2025, Maki announced that he would hold another concert, also titled with the same name, at the Araneta Coliseum on November 7, 2025, [12] with him as one of its musical directors. [13]
