Gary Valenciano and Julie Anne San Jose serenaded fans with their new collaborative song “Di Ka Akin.”
The track, released on Universal Records Philippines’ YouTube channel yesterday, Aug. 5, is a duet about two people who cherish moments from a hopeless love affair.
San Jose admitted that she considers working with Valenciano a “dream come true,” as seen on her Instagram post, also yesterday.
“It’s out! I wrote this song last year and it has finally come to life. Still feels surreal… collaborating with @garyvalenciano is definitely a dream come true. Thank you to @universalrecordsph [and Angeli Pangilinan] for making this happen,” she said.
Valenciano, meanwhile, announced that the track has been released via his Instagram page yesterday.
“It’s finally here!! Newly dropped release ‘Di Ka Akin’ with Julie Anne San Jose and yours truly is now available on your favorite digital music streaming platforms!” he told fans.
Valenciano confessed that “Di Ka Akin” is a “totally new sound” for him and he was not sure whether he could “deliver” for the collaboration. However, he described it as the “sound of today,” as seen in a video on Universal Records Philippines’ Twitter page last Tuesday, Aug. 2.
“It wasn’t just a good song, that’s given already, but it’s also with an excellent artist,” he said.
For OPM Icon @GaryValenciano1, an opportunity to collaborate with such an excellent artist like Julie Anne San Jose @MyJaps does not come very often and you really don’t wanna miss it. A reason why he said Yes to this collab in a heartbeat.
