The event was capped by rollingstonephilippines.com going live, featuring stories beyond music, from culture to social affairs.
Apart from the brand's launch and a performance by iconic rock band Razorback, the night featured a panel discussion moderated by Paolo Abrera featuring MMGI's COO and group publisher Anne Bernisca, chief of editorial content Jonty Cruz, and digital editor Sai Versailles. The Rolling Stone Philippines team made clear they'd cover music, culture, and national news with the same attitude inspired by its iconic counterculture legacy, Rolling Stone.
The launch also announced Rolling Stone Philippines' mission to reinvent the rules, reframe culture and redefine what it means to be a "rockstar" today - hitting the ground running with its initial digital lineup featuring an intimate yet compelling interview with rock royalty Ely Buendia, who reinvigorates his legacy with what he considers his first "official" solo album, "Method Adapter."
"The original Rolling Stone reframed culture. It's all about taking that legacy into the current state of media," Cruz adds. "Rolling Stone Philippines is not just here to honor what came before; it's here to create new narratives."
