WISH 107.5 Announces 3rd Wish Music Awards this 2018

Music play a key role in our lives.  While Filipinos have been really fond of music. That's why there's a continuous evolution of what we call Original Filipino Music or OPM. I personally can't last a day without listening to my favorite songs and watch their videos, again and again.
        Recently,  Wish 107.5 Your No. 1 FM station on YouTube, announces that the Wish Music Awards will be held on January 15, 2018 at Smart-Araneta Coliseum.
From celebrating it's third year,  the Wish Music Awards aims to gather and recognize the year's best and well-loved Filipino musicians and artists.
     Wish Music Awards was created by Breakthrough and Milestones Production International Inc.  (BMPI)
    This year,  Wish Music Awards will pay tribute to local composers, bands,singers and artists who collectively contributed to the massive appreciation and support gained by Original Filipino Music (OPM)  from the public lately.
Definitely,  the 2018 WMA will be a start to give thanks to the OPM legends while letting new and up coming Pinoy musicians to step up and showcase their talents and original brand of musicality.
