3. .WHAT ARE THE PHILIPPINE MUSIC ORGAN ICON

The Philippine Postal Corporation (PHLPost) issued commemorative stamps recognizing three Filipino
music icons.

The “Pinoy Music Icons stamps” feature Original Pilipino Music (OPM) artists Rene Garcia, Rico J. Puno,
and Pepe Smith.

Rene Garcia of the band Hotdog composed songs like “Annie Batungbakal”, “Bongga Ka Day”, “Beh, Buti
Nga”, “Bitin Sa ‘Yo”, “Ikaw ang Miss Universe ng Buhay Ko”, “Dying to Tell You”, “Langit na Naman”, and
“Sana Maganda Ako.”

“Rene pioneered the Manila Sound, a musical genre which mirrored not only the distinctive music of the
era but also the sentiments of many Filipinos toward their culture and homeland,” said PHLpost.

Rico J. Puno, on the other hand, rose to stardom after channeling American superstars to forge a
distinctive brand of local soul music in the 1970s covering american hits — including “The Way We
Were” by Barbra Streisand and “Baby I’m for Real” by Marvin Gaye.

Meanwhile, Pepe Smith, known to be the “Father of Philippine Rock”, personified Pinoy Rock as lead
vocalist and drummer of the Juan dela Cruz Band, thereby, creating a true local music genre.
PHLPost added that the three music legends “played in linking the past and the present generations
through their own brand of music, paving the way for the further enhancement of Original Pilipino
Music.”

The stamps and Official First Day covers of “Pinoy Music Icon stamps” are available at the Manila Central
Post Office and other area post offices nationwide.
