Isa Dalawa Tatlo: Zack Tabudlo’s new single celebrates love and marks his OPM comeback
ZACK Tabudlo, one of the most celebrated artists in the OPM scene, recently made a powerful comeback with his newly released single, “Isa Dalawa Tatlo.” To mark this significant moment, three massive digital billboards featuring lines from the song have been unveiled in key locations across Metro Manila.
The 22-year-old artist dropped the single last August 16. He announced it on the social media platform Facebook, where he posted a black-and-white photo of himself. In the photo, he’s smiling while someone else’s hands are covering his eyes. As of this writing, the photo has amassed over 11,000 shares, 250 likes, and 214 comments.
“Here’s one of the songs I’ve been working on for the past few months,” Zack wrote in the caption. “I hope you guys like it, it’s a special one from my heart.” The singer-songwriter used the same photo to change his profile picture on his other social media pages.
Zack wrote and produced the song himself, making “Isa Dalawa Tatlo” a testament to his evolving artistry. The song combines his signature blend of relatable lyrics and soulful vocals, which have become a hallmark of his music.
Meanwhile, the digital billboards are strategically placed in high-traffic areas, namely EDSA Guadalupe, EDSA Sentinel, and EDSA GCC. Each one features a different line from “Isa Dalawa Tatlo,” offering a glimpse into the emotional depth of Zack’s soul-stirring new release. These lines — “Isa…pagmulat ko, ako naman ibigin mo,” “Dalawa…sana mahalin pag-mulat ko,” and “Tatlo…araw-araw na lang ganito, patuloy na nahuhulog sa’yo” — reflect the inspiration drawn from his new relationship, fueling his creativity and resulting in a track that expresses the intensity and joy of being deeply in love.
On his social media platforms, Zack reenforces the song’s key thematics while encouraging the public to spot his billboards as posted on his Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/C_NxA6Rh4iP/?igsh=enpyNXd4dGlhdGtt and on his official Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/share/p/K8nu67jSNaKjz1Y1/?.
Fans and media alike are encouraged to keep an eye out for the billboards, as they will provide a unique visual accompaniment to the song. This campaign not only promotes “Isa Dalawa Tatlo” but also underscores Zack’s return and status as a leading voice in OPM. The song is his first release in two months — “Feel This Way” hit Spotify in May. While that may not seem like a long wait to some, it feels like an eternity to those who have Zack’s music on heavy rotation. At least now his fans have something new to listen to — something that’ll remind them of how amazing it feels to be in love.
Embarking on his solo music journey in 2018, Zack quickly rose to fame on the strength of his original songs, which resonated with local and international listeners. Among those who got hooked on his music were K-pop idols Heeseung of ENHYPEN and Jung Kook of BTS. Heeseung impressed fans with his short cover of “Give Me Your Forever,” while Jung Kook played the same song during one of his live streams on Weverse.
Last month, Zack performed “Give Me Your Forever” at the 2024 ROUND Festival in Busan, South Korea. He was one of only two Filipino performers in an event that featured multiple international artists. His other hit singles, including “Pano,” “Gusto,” and “Binibini,” have each garnered over one hundred million Spotify streams, cementing his status as one of the most streamed OPM artists.
Zack Tabudlo’s return with “Isa Dalawa Tatlo” is not just about new music — it’s about a renewed expression of love and inspiration. His ability to connect with audiences, even during his time away from the spotlight, proves that there’s always a Zack Tabudlo song that listeners can relate to, no matter the time or place. “Isa Dalawa Tatlo” is available on all streaming platforms, including Spotify.
