(1) MaPa = Mama and Papa (Parents) (2) Mapa = Map (English) (3) MaPa = Mata and Paa (Eyes & Feet) (4) Lataratara = There is no direct translation (Prolly) for this. This is a lullaby, a hymn normally our Mom makes every time she puts us to sleep. Remember our [1]MaPa normally just utter any sound tucking us in. Our Map is our [1]MaPa in this Life journey. Both used and present on this song. This is a masterpiece written by Pablo in collaboration with the rest of SB19. The release of the magical song was intended between the mother’s day and father’s day since the song is for them. This is a love letter to our parents. For some if not most, we barely tell our parents how we feel inside. This masterpiece will help us do another move to tell them how much we value and love them. In the song, “we will never get lost because we have the Mapa (Map)”. The map represent our parents. The things they taught us, the sacrifices, the advice they give and hardships. We will never get lost so long as we have the Map (Map). The Map that we can bring anywhere we go. The map that contains all the leanings and guidance our [1]MaPa gave us.
Yes bro....go down this rabbit hole....SB19 is something special. Great singing, hardcore rap, next level choreography. Strong on Filipino culture. Once you go A'Tin you won't go back!!!
I've never listened to SB19 before but this really touched me. My father is dying and this nearly made me cry. This group has got another fan. Thanks Knox! You never fail to make my days. I love you! 💜💜💜
"MAPA" word play: mapa - in english MAP ( diagram of a place) Ma' Pa' - short terminology for "Mama & Papa" (Mother & Father) Our parents are like our guide or map through life.
There's an additional layer that most non-Tagalog speakers would miss. The Mother (Ma) is equated to eyes (Mata) to be the constant in an ever changing world when we try to make sense of it all, and the father (Pa) is equated to feet (Paa) to keep moving us forward when we're so bogged down we're crawling.
*I really like Knox when it comes to reacting something, especially Blackpink. Now this? Man, big respect to you! This is Filipino pride, SB19's raising our flag!*
To all the new SB19 fans,casuals especially the international fans,believe me,you will never regret liking them. Super talented. You will be even more impressed for being so humble, bubbly and down to earth our SB19
Knox, these boys could rap too! Check out Gento, Bazinga or Crimzone by SB19….they have solos too….Check out La Luna by Pablo…Stray Dogs, Drinksmoke, Bulan and Palayo by Ken/Felip. Wild Tonight and Pakiusap Lang by Josh Cullen. Welcome to the rabbit hole/ treasure trove of SB19!
You've found the gold...SB19. Next please, Gento MV. The live version of MAPA in Wish Bus USA is also so good and please turn on the captions. They are self-produced and their songs are multi-genre.
Honestly, this is why I'm always eager to see a rapper's reaction to SB19 songs - they almost always dissect the lyrics and get the message on their first watch/listen. Perhaps it's also because Pablo style of songwriting is from a rapper's POV?
You deserve a million subs and more. You get SB19’s mapa even though you’re just reading the cc and basing it from the visualizer. Wow! I’m so impressed. You’re interpretation of the song is on point! And hey, you’re so good looking. Let’s get you your gold play button.
I second this! The way he reacted to all aspects of the song and the visuals in just 11 minutes, how he immediately put two and two together about MaPa's lyrics and meaning.. I immediately subbed!
I love how you dissect lyrics and melodies. Their newest song Gento would be a treat! The way they rap in this song is golden! They’re not just a Pop group but a multi-genre group. Please do react to their new song Gento.
It's amazing seeing a Caucasian be touched by the lyrics and understand the high Filipino value for parents. Truly every culture can learn from each other.
More SB19 please! You won't be disappointed. Once you start following them it gets contagious. Most reactors set up a playlist. They can go hard, do Pop, Ballads and more. They even have solos that you'll need to explore. One comment though, they sing in both Tagalog, the Filipino language and English. Their lyrics are so inspiring so check for English subs. Most of their official MV'S have them. If they're auto generated just turn the subs off since they won't work. Hope to see more!
I can't believe that one of my favorite Blackpink reactors reacts to my fave P-pop group "SB 19". Thank you so much, hoping for more SB 19 reactions and Enhypen as well. These groups are my ults. Promise they'll never disappoint you. ❤️
That song MAPA WAS WRITTEN BY talented Pablo d leader of d group,try to watch they performing that song ,it's really amazing❤❤❤,thank you for reacting our SB 19 Songs ,more songs coming ,like ILAW, CRIMZONE, GENTO, DETERMINADO etc......
SB19 are going to US this July-August for their Pagtatag World Tour. I hope you can help support ppop rise to the world. Heartful thank you Knox for your reaction. SB19's 2nd EP will be out on June 9.
"Mapa makes me think of map. Like we're outside trying to read a map. Hence, the wind." You were on point right from the start. 😆 You also caught "MaPa" from the title being the combination of Mama and Papa, but also is the filipino word for map. This was really satisfying to watch. 😆 Great reaction, Knox! It would be amazing if you could react to their other songs as well. This song mostly showcased their vocals but they have good rappers in the group, too. :)
SB19 Multi-awarded group/artists. Most of their songs are self-produced, or directed by the members and choreograph and written by themselves. They made the hit song 'MAPA' and many more. They are the first Filipino and Southeast Asian act to be nominated in Billboard Music Awards for the Top Social Artist category. Bagged multiple awards from MYX, WISH and moreee. They are bunch of humorous, relatable peeps with humble beginning and is still filled with humility and pride in their roots. They are not called PPOP kings for nothing. They ate and always left no crumbs! Pablo- Leader, a soloist, has a bachelor of arts in english degree in PUP wrote and produced/co-produced most of their songs. Pablo and his family owns a clothing business and a cafe. Justin- vocalist and creative director, studied AB-MMA (Multimedia Arts) and graduated at De La Salle - College of Saint Benilde with Honorable Mention. Josh- a soloist, Sub-vocalist and rapper, and a professional gamer also a dancer, help choreograph their songs, all of them collaborated. He was a call center agent before, and a very well-spoken and smart guy. Ken- Main dancer, lead rapper, vocalist. He grew up in a church in the care of his grandparents, his father and mother were both abroad working and living overseas. He was the an architecture student before he came to train with SB19 members. He is very athletic and musically inclined. He is now a fashion Icon and has a clothing brand like Pablo. Stell- main choreographer, dancer, lead vocalist with wide vocal range. He's the brain to those top-charting moves. He's been competing as a cover group for a long time just like the other members. He's very funny too, extremely relatable. Btw, he's a gemini if that helps. Plsss do check their latest song "Gento" MV New sub here🙌
they are also cool rappers check out their other songs they are also a hip-hop group but they are the king of ppop group here in the Philippines 🇵🇭 i love your reaction because it's genuine ❤️ 
I'm a Filipino but I don't listen to this song ever. This my first time listening to this song. This made me cry. Recently I lost my Grandfather, he was my father figure. He taught me everything I know about life. I told him before he die "ako na tay. Ako na ang bahala sa kanila. Wag ka na mag alala". He squeezed my hand and he died 2 days after that.
WOW YOUR INTERPRETATION IS ON POINT 👌 SB19 IS A MULTI-TALENTED FILIPINO BOYGROUP. THEY CAN ALL DANCE, RAP AND SING IN ANY GENRE. THEY ARE SELF-PRODUCED AND SELF-MANAGED GROUP 🔥 HOPE YOI COULD REACT TO THEIR WISH BUS LIVE PERFORMANCES LIKE MANA, BAZINGA, WYAT, MAPA & MORE. THEIR LIVE VOCALS ARE INSANE BELIEVE ME 😎
Omg! Knox, great RV as always! They just released a new song called GENTO. It's a more upbeat (and satirical) song with a bit more rap lines. If you wanna check it out...
There's so much to discover about this group. Hope you decide to get to know them more. You won't be disappointed. There songs and MVs all carry deep messages.They just released another single "Gento".
OMG!! Didn’t expect this!! I’m filipino too and you should check out their music. Hope “Bazinga” and “Gento” by them could be your next reaction video. Thank you Knox!! 🤍
SB19's MAPA Wish USA Bus performance is highly recommended so does GENTO, WYAT, BAZINGA, MANA, WHAT? This July-August they'll be on the US & Canada for their comeback world tour. Really ppreciates you for giving them chance/time. 😊 Been watching your EZ Mil's RVs before so I think you'll gonna like some of their solo stuffs too like Pablo's (leader) LA LUNA, Josh's Wild Tonight & Felip's BULAN to start. Their lyricism & producing is amazingly good. No pressure tho just do it on your own time & accord. 😊 SB19 is a Filipino Idol group or PPop (Pinoy Pop). They're a self-producing team (music, lyrics & MVs), self-managed, choreograph some of their dances, direct(ed) their own MVs & Concerts, designed their own merch, albums, photo books.
Wow, thank you for appreciating this song. Didn't thought you'd be captured by this kind of song coz you're a rapper. I love that you paid attention to the message of the song. Their leader is a real genius and creates music that everyone can relate to. Thank you! 💙🇵🇭
Pls react to other SB19 songs- the newest- “Gento MV” (Gold), “Bazinga MV” , “What MV”, “Mana”… etc… youll love them. They compose and write their own songs including “MAPA”… they also choreograph the dance and direct/create their own productions…😊👍👌
Never thought you’d react on anything that’s not totally rap. Great to see you’ve discovered SB19. N.B. You’re my fave reactor on raps coz you really parse the bars and explain it with clarity, the way you did IDK of EZ Mil.
New to your channel! I'm pleasantly surprised that you immediately caught the wordplay! The third meaning of MAPA is "mata" (eyes, for Mama) and "paa" (feet, for Papa). As a rapper, you might be interested to know that SB19 are absolute beast rappers. The rap line (3 of the 5 members) have very distinct but equally topnotch rapping styles. Pablo has a lot of rasp and grit in his voice, is very quick, and can be an absolute animal when he gets carried away. Josh does melodic rapping with a lot of expression, sometimes a bit flirty, but he can definitely go hard too. Ken raps with a deep, dark, velvety voice. Their new song, Gento, showcases all these styles really well. But as you discovered, they're also great vocalists. They also write and produce/co-produce their songs, are great dancers who can choreograph their own dances, and are absolute monsters live. There's such immense talent in this group, and MAPA is only the tip of the iceberg. Hope that piques your interest in SB19. Subscribing now. Looking forward to more RVs!
SB19 is a different n unique group. All the five members can sing LIVE, rap, dance n do choreography and creatives..MAPA is the very first song that made me love these boys...can you think of a boy group today who can even think of composing a song in gratitude of their parents? They love n respect their parents..these boys have the right values and are so humble..we truly love them
J-Hope of BTS wrote a solo song "Mama" in 2016, thanking his mom for all her efforts to support him (Hey Mama, now you can lean on me) . In 2015 Jin of BTS released a cover of the song "Mom", also dedicated to the songwriter's mom. Suga of BTS wrote songs about his life that included his parents' tribulations (Amygdala). What I love about Mapa is the multiple play on the title and the poetry of the lyrics as well as the great vocals.
MY guy Knox hill finally on the SB19 Reaction wave like me! Dam bro I am excited, you will enjoy them man, Next you gotta check out WYAT, Bazinga or MANA, but DO NOT do music videos they get blocked, do the Wish live bush versions, they wont get blocked, thanks for checking out SB19 My guy! and get ready to be introduced the the 5 boys! they are so inspiring, Pablo, Ken, Justin, Josh and Stell! Much love
Thank you for checking out SB19! Love your analysis of Mapa. Simon Servida, one of the producers, actually has a video on his production process for it. ("How I Produced SB19's MAPA! Making A Slow Pop Ballad!) Hope you can also review SB19's other songs like GENTO, WHAT, and BAZINGA. You'll be surprised at how versatile they are.
Pablo, the leader, is a genius! He takes word play in their songs into a different level. You can really try to explore their other songs and performances. They are vocal monsters on a live performance.
Thank you for reacting to our Ppop Kings, comments here are right, you found the gold! I like you for being genius...music, lyrics, vocals and visuals, you can clearly see all. More SB19, promise their songs are mind blowing.
OMG!! Been a long time coming! I never thought I'd see the day you'd react to them, but hey! Better late than never. I hope you do another reaction to them. SB19 is a PPop Group who puts lots of thought on their lyricism and I am pretty sure you'd like it. MaPa is just one of the many genre they can do. Hope you do another RV for Gento (their most recent track), Bazinga, WHAT, MANA and even their solo stuff, for sure you'll like Pablo's La Luna, he's their leader and group composer/producer. Thanks a million Knox! All love!
This is such a beautiful reaction. Thanks so much for reacting to SB19's Mapa. I hope you'll start exploring their discography because there's so much to discover! 3 of the 5 members have solo acts: Pablo's La Luna; Felip's Palayo, Bulan and Complex Album; Josh's Wild Tonight and Pakiusap Lang. Meanwhile the remaining two had side projects too. Stell has done a recording to promote Disney Plus' launch in the Philippines while Justin did CMs for PureGold (It's like Target/Walmart in America).
SB19 is so underrated! This song made me cry when it came out. Check out their new song “Gento”. You will hear how they have such range in both style and vocal abilities. It’s a completely different vibe. Great analysis as always!
SB19 discography has wide variety. From pop, ballad, rap, and so on. Pls dig into this group because you really found a gem! The leader is a rapper who produce their own songs. Imagine a rapper produced a ballad song (MAPA)?! So very talented young man 😊 and they are monsters in live performance. Theyre songs are even better in live performance. Try to watch their wishbus 107.5 performance😊
Wow! The Knox Hill reacting to SB19. Thank you! This is the first time I saw a reactor get the full meaning of this song to a T. Your breakdown, as always never disappoints. Pls do more SB19. They are even better live.
It's so refreshing to hear somebody like you break down a song like MAPA very well because the language is not easy to translate in English and sometimes there's something left out from the original feeling of the song. I am now your subscriber.
That is how we cherish & love our parents here in the Philippines. I never Listen to SB19 songs because I'm not really a fan of Kpop (Male Group) or songs but this is the only song that I always wanna here because of those lyrics "It Hits Hard" & its hard to swallow the TRUTH behind those lyrics... Kudos for those boys.. 👊😎 🇵🇭
As an INTERNATIONAL fan I believe SB19 is Ppop …I don’t want to offend anyone either but KPOP fans are too TOXIC for me so I only listen to Independent artists from S. Korea and I experienced sadly 😢some racial discrimination in way too many comments. It caused me to rethink who I support and listen to and SB19 is always positive, inspiring and respectful. 🙋🏻♀️❤️🔥🎼💫🇵🇭🚀
Gosh, thank you so much for reacting to SB19! I had been waiting for your reaction to them and it made me so happy that you liked them! Please also react to Bazinga, What, Mana and their latest Gento! It's right up your alley! 😍 Stay awesome, Knox!
SB19 is a versatile group. They can sing different types of genres. You’ll also be amazed on how they are live, they sound even better. You’re also going to notice more on their harmonization. Their leader, Pablo writes their songs, a great lyricist.
They have a newly released song that I think would suit your taste. Check out their Gento song. I've watched them accidentally in their first US Tour in Palladium and I was blown away. I ended became A'tin LOL my favorite is their Mana song.
Thank you so much for reacting to SB19! I loved your detailed analysis of the whole song, both lyrically and technically. They have songs in different genres. I can’t wait for you to discover and react to more of their music. I am your new subscriber from Charles County Maryland💙
You really dissected this. Well put analysis. The one who wrote this is a rapper so when you said about the first line at the beginning I know you have ears for music. (1m subs deserve) This song has been used for Graduations too. Song to celebrate the people who guided you in life.
Thank you! This was one of the best reactions I have watched on MAPA, you talked about the music, the quality of their voices and the meaning of the song! And you got the references that SB19 were singing about. MAPA stands for: 1. Ma and Pa; 2. Map (Mapa); 3. Mata (Eyes) and Paa (Feet). I think you will enjoy their other songs as well like their newest release GENTO, and their other releases, BAZINGA, WYAT, WHAT, NYEBE, MANA, and others. SB19 songs are all very meaningful and are composed by Pablo, the group's leader. They are amazing at live performances and they are good at different kinds of music genres. Hope that you can continue to react to SB19. 😊
SB19 is self-managed & self-produced. They write and compose their songs. They co-direct their creative outputs. They are real artists, top tier vocalists.
Thank u sir for checking out sb19 u can check also their live mapa performance in wish bus usa, looking forward for more sb19 reactions like what? Bazinga, WYAT, nyebe( snow) and their new release mv GENTO thank u💙💙💙💙💙
You got the message and true meaning of this song.. my A'tin heart is very happy.. thank you for appreciating SB19... ❤❤ If you dig deeper to their crafts... youll be amazed how talented these guys ..and how authentic their music..
‘Lataratara’ is like a filipino lullaby you sing to your children when you put them to sleep, derived from “la tierra” in spanish which means “my world”. So this song is like a tribute to their parents.
Thanks for the RV for our SB19. Also, I love how you break down those lyrics and your reaction about the music prod. I hope for more RVs of SB19 from your channel. They will never let you down. ❤
First time dropping here, and subscribing.. Your interpretation is so on point. Three of sb19 members are rappers. Hope you get to listen to more of their songs like their recent release GENTO which is a double word play too for "gold" and "like this". Their songwriting, lyricism, word plays, raps, vocals and choreography really make them stand out.
Love your reaction! New sub here! SB19 are amazing, meaningful songs and they could do multiple genre. Soooo talented group of men! Love them! 💙💙💙💙💙 and this song hits hard 😍😍😍😍😍

While we're at SB19, I highly recommend their new song Gento
Other SB19 songs: Gento, WYAT, WHAT?
(1) MaPa = Mama and Papa (Parents)
(2) Mapa = Map (English)
(3) MaPa = Mata and Paa (Eyes & Feet)
(4) Lataratara = There is no direct translation (Prolly) for this. This is a lullaby, a hymn normally our Mom makes every time she puts us to sleep. Remember our [1]MaPa normally just utter any sound tucking us in.
Our Map is our [1]MaPa in this Life journey. Both used and present on this song. This is a masterpiece written by Pablo in collaboration with the rest of SB19. The release of the magical song was intended between the mother’s day and father’s day since the song is for them.
This is a love letter to our parents. For some if not most, we barely tell our parents how we feel inside. This masterpiece will help us do another move to tell them how much we value and love them.
In the song, “we will never get lost because we have the Mapa (Map)”. The map represent our parents. The things they taught us, the sacrifices, the advice they give and hardships. We will never get lost so long as we have the Map (Map). The Map that we can bring anywhere we go. The map that contains all the leanings and guidance our [1]MaPa gave us.

@@WildAbigail182 thank you for liking our kings😊
@@princesszuasola1234 Thank you for having such amazing kings. 😎
“Lataratrala….” Is a lullaby tune sung to us by our moms… so the singer is singing it back to his old parents…
MAPA is one of the best masterpieces of PABLO, their leader, song writer and music producer.
"MAPA" word play:
mapa - in english MAP ( diagram of a place)
Ma' Pa' - short terminology for "Mama & Papa" (Mother & Father)
Our parents are like our guide or map through life.
There's an additional layer that most non-Tagalog speakers would miss.
The Mother (Ma) is equated to eyes (Mata) to be the constant in an ever changing world when we try to make sense of it all, and the father (Pa) is equated to feet (Paa) to keep moving us forward when we're so bogged down we're crawling.

SB19's lyricism alone is an art itself. It is never short of witty metaphors and word plays.
Youve discovered gold - SB19😊…This song was written by Pablo (John Paulo Nase), SB19’s leader to their parents😊
This is the best reaction I have seen of Mapa. Thank you for reacting to this. You really paid attention to the song in its entirety

I can just imagine and feel your emotions, because your last words with your grandpa were the exact words in the song. grabeh!

Omg! Knox, great RV as always! They just released a new song called GENTO. It's a more upbeat (and satirical) song with a bit more rap lines. If you wanna check it out...
This group SB19, has symbolic lyrics in all their songs.😊
There's so much to discover about this group. Hope you decide to get to know them more. You won't be disappointed. There songs and MVs all carry deep messages.They just released another single "Gento".

Up! Yes please react to their newest song GENTO. Thank you!

OMG!! Didn’t expect this!! I’m filipino too and you should check out their music. Hope “Bazinga” and “Gento” by them could be your next reaction video. Thank you Knox!! 🤍

SB19's MAPA Wish USA Bus performance is highly recommended so does GENTO, WYAT, BAZINGA, MANA, WHAT? This July-August they'll be on the US & Canada for their comeback world tour. Really ppreciates you for giving them chance/time. 😊
Been watching your EZ Mil's RVs before so I think you'll gonna like some of their solo stuffs too like Pablo's (leader) LA LUNA, Josh's Wild Tonight & Felip's BULAN to start. Their lyricism & producing is amazingly good. No pressure tho just do it on your own time & accord. 😊
SB19 is a Filipino Idol group or PPop (Pinoy Pop). They're a self-producing team (music, lyrics & MVs), self-managed, choreograph some of their dances, direct(ed) their own MVs & Concerts, designed their own merch, albums, photo books.
Up . Please check this Out Knox
SB19 said "I love you" to their parents without actually saying it. The sentiment is heartfelt.
Wow SB19!Awesome😊thank you so much! I love this group so much! Theyre very talented, humble guys!😊greetings from Switzerland😊
Wow, thank you for appreciating this song. Didn't thought you'd be captured by this kind of song coz you're a rapper. I love that you paid attention to the message of the song. Their leader is a real genius and creates music that everyone can relate to. Thank you! 💙🇵🇭
Pls react to other SB19 songs- the newest- “Gento MV” (Gold), “Bazinga MV” , “What MV”, “Mana”… etc… youll love them. They compose and write their own songs including “MAPA”… they also choreograph the dance and direct/create their own productions…😊👍👌
Never thought you’d react on anything that’s not totally rap. Great to see you’ve discovered SB19.
N.B. You’re my fave reactor on raps coz you really parse the bars and explain it with clarity, the way you did IDK of EZ Mil.
New to your channel! I'm pleasantly surprised that you immediately caught the wordplay! The third meaning of MAPA is "mata" (eyes, for Mama) and "paa" (feet, for Papa).
As a rapper, you might be interested to know that SB19 are absolute beast rappers. The rap line (3 of the 5 members) have very distinct but equally topnotch rapping styles. Pablo has a lot of rasp and grit in his voice, is very quick, and can be an absolute animal when he gets carried away. Josh does melodic rapping with a lot of expression, sometimes a bit flirty, but he can definitely go hard too. Ken raps with a deep, dark, velvety voice. Their new song, Gento, showcases all these styles really well.
But as you discovered, they're also great vocalists. They also write and produce/co-produce their songs, are great dancers who can choreograph their own dances, and are absolute monsters live. There's such immense talent in this group, and MAPA is only the tip of the iceberg.
Hope that piques your interest in SB19. Subscribing now. Looking forward to more RVs!
SB19 is a different n unique group. All the five members can sing LIVE, rap, dance n do choreography and creatives..MAPA is the very first song that made me love these boys...can you think of a boy group today who can even think of composing a song in gratitude of their parents? They love n respect their parents..these boys have the right values and are so humble..we truly love them
J-Hope of BTS wrote a solo song "Mama" in 2016, thanking his mom for all her efforts to support him (Hey Mama, now you can lean on me) . In 2015 Jin of BTS released a cover of the song "Mom", also dedicated to the songwriter's mom. Suga of BTS wrote songs about his life that included his parents' tribulations (Amygdala). What I love about Mapa is the multiple play on the title and the poetry of the lyrics as well as the great vocals.
i hope you can react to WHAT? , Bazinga, and Gento too. thank you, Knox!
Your reactions are so real, emotional and technically outstanding. Well done.
This is treat. Let’s hope for more Knox and SB19!
MY guy Knox hill finally on the SB19 Reaction wave like me! Dam bro I am excited, you will enjoy them man, Next you gotta check out WYAT, Bazinga or MANA, but DO NOT do music videos they get blocked, do the Wish live bush versions, they wont get blocked, thanks for checking out SB19 My guy! and get ready to be introduced the the 5 boys! they are so inspiring, Pablo, Ken, Justin, Josh and Stell! Much love
SB19 GENTO OFFICIAL MV IS A MUST👍🔥🔥🔥
omg i have so many list of song for SB19 for you to react!!! BAZINGA MANA WYAT WHAT and GENTO🥹🥹🥹 pls pla pls
I commend you for not just reacting, but also understanding the meaning of the song. .
👏👏👏👏
This song will always be Sb19's finest for me.
Vocals, lyrics, title? The best
Thank you for checking out SB19! Love your analysis of Mapa. Simon Servida, one of the producers, actually has a video on his production process for it. ("How I Produced SB19's MAPA! Making A Slow Pop Ballad!)
Hope you can also review SB19's other songs like GENTO, WHAT, and BAZINGA. You'll be surprised at how versatile they are.
Pablo, the leader, is a genius! He takes word play in their songs into a different level. You can really try to explore their other songs and performances. They are vocal monsters on a live performance.
Thank you for reacting to our Ppop Kings, comments here are right, you found the gold! I like you for being genius...music, lyrics, vocals and visuals, you can clearly see all. More SB19, promise their songs are mind blowing.
OMG!! Been a long time coming! I never thought I'd see the day you'd react to them, but hey! Better late than never. I hope you do another reaction to them. SB19 is a PPop Group who puts lots of thought on their lyricism and I am pretty sure you'd like it. MaPa is just one of the many genre they can do.
Hope you do another RV for Gento (their most recent track), Bazinga, WHAT, MANA and even their solo stuff, for sure you'll like Pablo's La Luna, he's their leader and group composer/producer.
Thanks a million Knox! All love!
This is such a beautiful reaction. Thanks so much for reacting to SB19's Mapa. I hope you'll start exploring their discography because there's so much to discover! 3 of the 5 members have solo acts: Pablo's La Luna; Felip's Palayo, Bulan and Complex Album; Josh's Wild Tonight and Pakiusap Lang. Meanwhile the remaining two had side projects too. Stell has done a recording to promote Disney Plus' launch in the Philippines while Justin did CMs for PureGold (It's like Target/Walmart in America).
Love, love how you paid attention to the lyrics and musicality of MAPA... thanks for reacting to SB19
SB19 is so underrated! This song made me cry when it came out. Check out their new song “Gento”. You will hear how they have such range in both style and vocal abilities. It’s a completely different vibe. Great analysis as always!
that is an honorable purpose for your family... thanks for an honest reaction, rap guy. good luck, too.
SB19 discography has wide variety. From pop, ballad, rap, and so on. Pls dig into this group because you really found a gem! The leader is a rapper who produce their own songs. Imagine a rapper produced a ballad song (MAPA)?! So very talented young man 😊 and they are monsters in live performance. Theyre songs are even better in live performance. Try to watch their wishbus 107.5 performance😊
Wow! The Knox Hill reacting to SB19. Thank you! This is the first time I saw a reactor get the full meaning of this song to a T. Your breakdown, as always never disappoints. Pls do more SB19. They are even better live.
omg, Knox Hill reacting to SB19!! i've been wanting this to happen eversince i've watched your vid for the first time. thank you for this💙
This is a very beautiful song with a heartfelt message. Thank you for reacting to SB19's MAPA..
It's so refreshing to hear somebody like you break down a song like MAPA very well because the language is not easy to translate in English and sometimes there's something left out from the original feeling of the song. I am now your subscriber.
❤❤❤❤ ohhh, i love when you react to the songs of sb19, thsnk you sir knox! God bless you.❤❤❤❤❤
That is how we cherish & love our parents here in the Philippines. I never Listen to SB19 songs because I'm not really a fan of Kpop (Male Group) or songs but this is the only song that I always wanna here because of those lyrics "It Hits Hard" & its hard to swallow the TRUTH behind those lyrics... Kudos for those boys.. 👊😎
🇵🇭
well... they are not kpop po. they're OPM. they are filipinos who sing about their experiences and all their songs are written by them.
They’re filipino boy group 😊
Sinabi nyo ng pilippines pero kpop pa din. Ano talaga?nakakaluka. God help nkakawala ng braincells
As an INTERNATIONAL fan I believe SB19 is Ppop …I don’t want to offend anyone either but KPOP fans are too TOXIC for me so I only listen to Independent artists from S. Korea and I experienced sadly 😢some racial discrimination in way too many comments. It caused me to rethink who I support and listen to and SB19 is always positive, inspiring and respectful. 🙋🏻♀️❤️🔥🎼💫🇵🇭🚀
Their music is PPop not KPop. They are Filipinos who sings about their experiences in life as a Filipino.
Gosh, thank you so much for reacting to SB19! I had been waiting for your reaction to them and it made me so happy that you liked them! Please also react to Bazinga, What, Mana and their latest Gento! It's right up your alley! 😍 Stay awesome, Knox!
I saw SB19, I subscribe. You did get the double meaning of Mapa. Thank you for reacting to our Ppop Kings. Looking forward for more SB19 reaction.
ooh you found esbi. been watching your Ez reactions so I'm glad you found another gem
SB19 is a versatile group. They can sing different types of genres. You’ll also be amazed on how they are live, they sound even better. You’re also going to notice more on their harmonization.
Their leader, Pablo writes their songs, a great lyricist.
Can’t stop crying with this song, beautiful!
OH MY GOD FINALLY SB19 ON YOUR CHANNEL!!! THEY'RE AMAZING ARTISTS
Wow! i used to listen to this song and admired it but didnt really think of the lyrics, and wow just wow, it actually has a great damn meaning 😭
They have a newly released song that I think would suit your taste. Check out their Gento song. I've watched them accidentally in their first US Tour in Palladium and I was blown away. I ended became A'tin LOL my favorite is their Mana song.
Thank you so much for reacting to SB19! I loved your detailed analysis of the whole song, both lyrically and technically. They have songs in different genres. I can’t wait for you to discover and react to more of their music. I am your new subscriber from Charles County Maryland💙
Analysis on point. Please check out their new single "Gento" please. You won't regret it!😊
Thank you for reacting to our SB19. MORE MORE MORE SONGS TO DISCOVER. PLEASE REACT TO " WHAT, BAZINGA, MANA, GENTO"...
You really dissected this. Well put analysis. The one who wrote this is a rapper so when you said about the first line at the beginning I know you have ears for music. (1m subs deserve)
This song has been used for Graduations too. Song to celebrate the people who guided you in life.
SB19's other ballad song - "ILAW" is another master piece that hits in a different level.
Thank you! This was one of the best reactions I have watched on MAPA, you talked about the music, the quality of their voices and the meaning of the song! And you got the references that SB19 were singing about. MAPA stands for: 1. Ma and Pa; 2. Map (Mapa); 3. Mata (Eyes) and Paa (Feet). I think you will enjoy their other songs as well like their newest release GENTO, and their other releases, BAZINGA, WYAT, WHAT, NYEBE, MANA, and others. SB19 songs are all very meaningful and are composed by Pablo, the group's leader. They are amazing at live performances and they are good at different kinds of music genres. Hope that you can continue to react to SB19. 😊
SB19 is self-managed & self-produced. They write and compose their songs. They co-direct their creative outputs. They are real artists, top tier vocalists.
Thank u sir for checking out sb19 u can check also their live mapa performance in wish bus usa, looking forward for more sb19 reactions like what? Bazinga, WYAT, nyebe( snow) and their new release mv GENTO thank u💙💙💙💙💙
I love how you explained every lyric to understand every detail around the world 🌍 love u always @knothill💗💗💗💗💗💗💗🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
You got the message and true meaning of this song.. my A'tin heart is very happy.. thank you for appreciating SB19... ❤❤ If you dig deeper to their crafts... youll be amazed how talented these guys ..and how authentic their music..
‘Lataratara’ is like a filipino lullaby you sing to your children when you put them to sleep, derived from “la tierra” in spanish which means “my world”. So this song is like a tribute to their parents.
Thanks for the RV for our SB19. Also, I love how you break down those lyrics and your reaction about the music prod. I hope for more RVs of SB19 from your channel. They will never let you down. ❤
Why am I seeing this just now??! I've been waiting for this OMG please react to their song "What?" you'll enjoy and love it I promise!
First time dropping here, and subscribing.. Your interpretation is so on point. Three of sb19 members are rappers. Hope you get to listen to more of their songs like their recent release GENTO which is a double word play too for "gold" and "like this". Their songwriting, lyricism, word plays, raps, vocals and choreography really make them stand out.
It’s wonderfully satisfying to listen to your reactions because you’re perceptive and sensitive
Love your reaction! New sub here! SB19 are amazing, meaningful songs and they could do multiple genre. Soooo talented group of men! Love them! 💙💙💙💙💙 and this song hits hard 😍😍😍😍😍
Had a great time watching this. Thanks po! More SB19 please.
Im crying 😢 beautiful song from sb19
