Clash Masters Julie Anne San Jose and Rayver Cruz are ready to train the spotlight on the new batch of aspiring singers who will battle it out to win the grand champion title in the 2021 edition of the all-original Filipino singing competition and 2021 New York Festivals Finalist for Entertainment Variety Program – The Clash.
Known for its unique twists and surprises at every round, The Clash Season 4 brings together 30 of the most promising and talented contenders nationwide in one stage.
“I think this season, contestants already know what they’re doing, they know what they want. I think naka-add ‘yung spice na nakikita mo sa harap mo ‘yung makaka-challenge mo onstage and ‘yung immediate reaction or comments nung judges in front of you,” Julie shared in a recent virtual junket fir the show.
“Filipinos are very talented and very supportive. It wouldn’t be as successful as it was for the past seasons and years if not for the variety of great talented Clashers, their families and relatives, and the audience who supported the show since Season 1,” Rayver added.
Giving viewers an exclusive peek backstage again are Journey Hosts Ken Chan and Rita Daniela who are both eager to be back.
“There are many singing competitions out there, with similar systems in place and similar storylines. The Clash does away with all of that. Each season brings its unique recipe for excitement and unexpected thrills that each Clasher must overcome and face,” Ken said.
“They’ll expect more fun moments, beautiful voices, and I must say more awesome and creative productions from us. The contestants are getting more competitive because of the one-on-ones and group showdowns,” Rita shared.
Returning as The Clash Panel are Lani Misalucha, Christian Bautista, Aiai Delas Alas who are all looking forward to meeting this year’s breed of Clashers.
Thrilled to be back on her seat is Lani, “Since I’m back it’s going to be another crazy season. There are always surprising twists and challenges given to the contestants now and then that they have to be on their toes all the time.”
“They should expect Clashers who are more hungry for performing on stage. Clashers who are braver or will take more risks,” Christian shared when asked what viewers can expect from this year’s batch of contestants. “It’s unpredictable, it’s exciting, and we always aim for the best.”
For Aiai, this season is much more exciting, “Nakakatuwa kasi kahit na nasa pandemic pa rin tayo, we have something exciting to look forward to.”
Directed by Louie Ignacio, The Clash Season 4 premieres tomorrow night and will are Saturdays at 7:15 p.m. and Sundays at 7:40 p.m., on GMA-7.
