Original Pilipino Music (OPM) refers to music composed and performed by Filipino artists. It encompasses various genres, including pop, rock, folk, and hip-hop, reflecting the diverse culture and experiences of the Philippines. OPM gained popularity in the 1970s and has since evolved, incorporating both traditional and contemporary influences. Many OPM songs are characterized by their relatable themes, often focusing on love, life, and social issues. Notable artists in this genre include Asin, Freddie Aguilar, and Regine Velasquez. OPM continues to thrive today, with new artists emerging and contributing to the rich musical landscape of the Philippines.
