SB19 is a Filipino boy band that debuted in 2018, the pentad—consists of members Pablo, Stell, Ken, Justin, and Josh. They were trained for 4 years by ShowBT Philippines, beginning in 2016. They are the first Filipino and Southeast Asian act nominated for Billboard Music Awards for the Top Social Artist category. They are also the first Southeast Asian act to enter the top 10 Billboard Social 50 weekly and year-end charts. SB19 promotes its music as part of Pinoy pop (P-pop)—a popular sub-genre of Original Pilipino Music.------
NAMEThe letters in the group name were from the initials of their Korean management company, ShowBT. The number 19 is derived from the country calling codes of South Korea (+82) and the Philippines (+63)- the difference between 82 and 63, and the sum of the digits (8 + 2 + 6 + 3). It symbolized the collaboration of the two countries in forming the group. The members themselves, however, used the phrase "Sound Break"—with the goal of "breaking into the music scene" and improving the quality of Philippine boy groups.---------
HISTORY2016–2018: Formation and early yearsSB19 was formed by ShowBT Philippines, the Philippine subsidiary of ShowBT Group in Korea. After the members were selected from hundreds of auditionees during a talent search in 2016, they underwent the same type of training provided to K-pop idols. They were supposed to be performers only in the company's events and activities but former CEO Geong Seong Han decided to launch them as a boy group. The group debuted with Josh, Pablo, Stell, Ken, and Justin on October 26, 2018, with the ballad single "Tilaluha". However, their initial efforts at promotions, mostly in schools and malls, were met with a "lukewarm reception".2019: "Go Up" and rising popularitySB19's second single "Go Up" was released on July 19, 2019. Pablo described the song as their "last shot" because they had decided to disband if their career did not progress after. Unexpectedly, they gained public attention after the dance practice video of the song was uploaded which was later shared by a fan on Twitter and Facebook. Opportunities opened and the group started to appear in multiple radio and television outlets, both locally and internationally. On December 22, they embarked on their first-ever nationwide 10-city concert tour titled SB19: Get in the Zone, as a follow-up promotion after becoming viral.On November 20, 2019, SB19 became the first Filipino act to appear on the Billboard Next Big Sound chart. They also became the first Filipino act to enter the Billboard Social 50, debuting at number 28 on the week of December 28, 2019. Jeff Benjamin of Billboard noted that a growing international fanbase had aided their appearance in the chart. He added that "more artists [will] continue to look East for inspiration and a larger audience". Forbes remarked that the localization of ShowBT of the K-pop model is not unique, but SB19 is the first in the Philippines to succeed due to its strategic use of social media—the main factor of SB19's Social 50 chart appearance.On December 25, Sony Music Philippines announced that SB19 had signed a recording contract with them, and on the same day, the group released their third single, "Alab (Burning)", under the new record label.2020: Get in the ZoneOn March 9, 2020, SB19 has been added to the roster of artists of Spotify's RADAR Program, which supports new artists through marketing campaigns.

ARTISTRYInfluences:
SB19 has cited second-generation boy groups for inspiration, such as B2ST and Big Bang as well as third-generation boy groups: VIXX, GOT7, and BTS. Despite their apparent love for Korean music trickling down to their own body of work, SB19 admit they weren't always eager to ride the K-pop wave. Josh was exposed to BoA because of their dancing skills. His music inspirations are GD, Loonie, Gloc-9, Shanti Dope, and Smugglaz. Pablo's inspirations are Filipino hip-hop artist Loonie and Gloc-9. He also admires the style of Bigbang's G-Dragon, Ez Mil, Eminem, and NF, an American rapper, singer, and songwriter. He is a strong point of his group and the modern music industry. Stell's music inspiration is VIXX. He proudly notes some OPM veterans like Morissette and Sarah G who shaped their musical appreciation. Ken's inspirations are Daniel Caesar, a Canadian singer and songwriter, Filipino rock band IV of Spades, and Filipino rapper Al James. He admires Japanese rock band One Ok Rock and EXOs soloist Kai. Justin was inspired by the music of Filipino singer-songwriter Michael Pangilinan and GOT7.---------------------------------
LEGACY AND CULTURAL IMPACTWhile Filipino boy and girl groups had been around before SB19, the boy band is credited for "paving the way" for the launch of other music groups displaying a similar level of training, skill, and talent.Culture:On December 16, 2021, The National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA), the official government agency for culture in the Philippines under the Office of the President of the Philippines has named SB19 as its newest Youth and Sentro Rizal ambassadors representing Filipino culture and stories in the global scene. The NCCA lauded the group for genuine care for advocacies that uplift the Filipino spirit, music, and culture to the global scene, which is in line with the NCCA's mandate to promote Philippine arts and culture worldwide. Sentro Rizal (SR), the Philippines' cultural center for overseas Filipinos was formally established by the NCCA on June 28, 2011, with 36 offices worldwide.Fandom:In October 2019, the five-piece group revealed its official logo which represents the group's struggles, aspirations, and the people behind their success. In the same month, the boys also dropped their official color which is sky blue which represents the boys' confidence and sincerity.In November 2019, SB19 unveiled in a Facebook Live video their official fandom name. The group revealed that their fandom name is A'TIN, which is pronounced as "eighteen" and in Tagalog, it pronounces "Atin" meaning "ours". Pablo, the leader of the group, explained in the Facebook Live video that SB19 wouldn't have been possible without their fanbase.He said,
"So, kasi, kami, SB19! 18! 19! Kasi, kumbaga, siyempre, 18 muna bago 19. Pag walang 18 (A'TIN), hindi makakarating sa 19." SB19's fandom name sounds very positive and inclusive. Pablo added, "Another meaning, so if you're going to read this, it can also be read as "atin" (ours), so all the success, lahat ng natatamo natin ngayon, atin 'to. Everything is ours. Hindi lang sa amin, kundi sa inyo rin."
— Pablo, CosmopolitanWhen A'Tin, the official fandom name, was introduced by SB19, it immediately became an identity-defining moment. Language is a naming practice, and if a group of people is named in a particular way, the people begin to think and act according to the demand of the name. But such naming only becomes successful because there is an agreement (not always mutual, unfortunately) between the "name" and the "named". Pablo asked everyone to stop adding "s" to "A'Tin" because it is a collective noun. It is an irresistible, brilliant name-making strategy, especially because it crystallized an idea that the fans have been floating all along: SB19 represents their dreams and struggles in life, and every victory in the process feels like it is everyone's victory. Finally, they say, there is a Filipino boy group that they can be proud of and dream of seeing do well internationally. The A'Tin are SB19, and SB19 is the A'Tin.----------------
PHILANTHROPYSB19 is known for generosity. On January 12, 2020, when Taal Volcano erupted, the group launched a relief operation to help the eruption victims.
