Press Release October 30, 2018 Statement of Senator Aquilino "Koko" Pimentel III on the passing of OPM legend Rico J. Puno I am a big fan of Rico J. Puno. I grew up listening to his songs which became popular during the so-called golden era of original Pilipino music (OPM). His was a unique voice. His talent versatile. I considered him to be a total entertainer. I remember him singing "May Bukas Pa" in one of our campaign rallies in 2007. With a singing career spanning three decades, he's one of the true Philippine pop icons. He is a big loss to our music industry. He is a big loss to all of his fans. But his music will continue to be appreciated by us. He will surely be missed. |
