After a string of successful performances (such as the 2022 POPSTIVAL K-Pop Meets P-Pop concert, the 27th Asian Television Awards, and the ENHYPEN Fan Meet in Manila just to name a few) and the release of the fearless track “Defy”, P-Pop’s Newest Caliber G22 is back with another certified banger, the theme song of Mutya ng Pilipinas 2022 – “Takin’ Over”.
“Takin’ Over” was officially released at midnight on December 7, 2022 (Wednesday). Both the lyric video and audio video were also released at the same time on the official G22 YouTube channel.
The theme song was made for the 52nd edition of the prestigious Mutya ng Pilipinas national beauty pageant and G22 was aptly given the task of bringing the empowering song to life, a task that the group accomplished with much gratitude and flying colors. The audience of the coronation night (held on December 4, 2022, at the FilOil EcoOil Center in San Juan City, Metro Manila) was given a special treat as they got to witness the girls perform the song in public for the very first time. In fact, the girls made it to the Twitter trending list right after their electrifying performance during the coronation night.
The hard-hitting and powerful vibe of “Takin’ Over” continues to amplify the femme fatale-esque character and women empowerment messaging of the girls’ music.
The words and music are composed by Kiko “KIKX” Salazar and Alas Ramos with Alas Ramos also responsible for the arrangement, mixing, and mastering. Frank Lloyd Mamaril produced the track while UMG Philippines distributed and released it.
G22 is Cornerstone Entertainment’s official P-Pop girl group composed of four members, namely: AJ, Jaz, Alfea, and Bianca. Prior to “Takin’ Over”, the group released three other songs, namely: “Defy”, “Babalik”, and the debut single “Bang”.
“Takin’ Over” is now available on Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, Deezer, and other digital music platforms. The official lyric video and audio video are now also available on the G22 Official YouTube channel.
