Artists, regardless of their medium of expression, also explore new territory, genre- and theme-wise, to discover and offer something new.

Seb Pajarillo can attest to it with his latest single, Dati Pa, released under GMA Playlist.

"We tried to venture into a new type of music or new genre of music as compared to my first single, which is Want You. (The latter) talks more about being in love and your willingness to sacrifice something," said the Sparkle GMA Artist talent, who has appeared in TV series like "Shining Inheritance" and will also be seen in the forthcoming action-drama program, "Mga Batang Riles," of his debut single, in a recent press conference.

For Dati Pa, the sophomore ditty, he added that "we talked to venture into a different emotion this time, a different feeling." The theme may be viewed as about picking up the pieces, as a matter of speaking, and finding the path to move on.

It's a hint or hope that one may get from it.

An article from GMA Music describes it as "a heartbreak song about reminiscing on a past relationship." Every recording begins with the pitching process, where singers like Seb get to hear an array of songs and choose the one that appeals to and resonates with them.
