Release and reception

The album became available for downloads on April 13, 2018 and was officially released the next day, during Geronimo's 15th anniversary concert also entitled This 15 Me. The album went straight to number one on iTunes Philippines album charts and stayed on top for a week.

"Sandata" became available for pre-order on iTunes on January 10, 2018 and became the second most pre-ordered song during that time. On January 12, 2018, the day of its release, it went straight to number one on iTunes Philippines Songs Chart and stayed on top for four consecutive days. It also landed on Spotify Philippines Viral 50 at number 23. As of April 2018, the song has been played 800,000 times on Spotify, despite not having radio airplay and promotions. [3] [4] "Sandata" made it to the list "7 new local music releases to listen to" made by CNN Philippines, according to the article, "the song continues Sarah Geronimo's streak of Filipino dance pop anthems that began with Ikot-ikot then led us to Kilometro and Tala . While its production feels more low-key, less anthemic than past turns, "Sandata" makes up for it by finding Geronimo at her most polished and nuanced. This one's a grower, and as far as Filipino pop goes, it's a risk well-taken." [5]

"Ganito" became available for download on iTunes on the night of March 31, 2018 and became officially released on other digital music stores and streaming services the next day. The song topped the iTunes songs chart a few minutes after it was released. It became the most downloaded song on the said platform for 4 consecutive days, it slipped from number one to four due to the release of BTS' Face Yourself album, but managed to climb up again and charted at number two, only behind Sarah Geronimo's new release "Duyan." Sarah Geronimo became the face of Spotify's New Music Friday Philippines for the week of April 6 with her two latest singles on the playlist. "Ganito" also peaked at number 15 on Spotify Viral 50 Philippines on April 10 with over 100,000 streams despite not having radio airplay and promotions. [6] [7] [8]
