FELIP just kicked off a new chapter — and it’s arriving on multiple fronts at once. From music to fashion to a moment of unprecedented visibility, this is a artist stepping fully into his own name.
"SULFUR" Marks His First Release as an Independent Artist
Dropped on May 22, “SULFUR” trades FELIP’s earlier R&B and trap leanings for a heavier, rock-driven sound — aggressive guitar riffs, biker-gang visuals, and a rebellious edge that signals a bolder solo era. It’s his first music out since parting ways with his previous label, making it a genuine milestone: this is FELIP building his sound entirely on his own terms, as both music artist and the person steering every creative decision behind it.
A Sold-Out "SULFUR" Showcase
The “SULFUR” live showcase that followed was a full sellout — an intimate, high-energy set where fans showed up in full black, styling creative looks for the occasion. The atmosphere matched the single’s dark, fashionable edge perfectly, and the turnout and reaction made clear this new era is resonating. You can catch the official video here — most of the visuals floating around are pulled straight from that live performance.
From 7sins to SULFUR: FELIP's Sonic Evolution
“SULFUR” doesn’t come out of nowhere — it’s the next step in a catalog FELIP has built almost entirely himself. His 2024 album 7sins laid the groundwork for the darker, more emotionally direct persona he’s known for now, with tracks like “Greed” and “Ache” showing off his range as a composer and music producer rather than just a performer working from someone else’s script. FELIP writes, produces, and arranges much of his own material, and that hands-on process is exactly why “SULFUR” feels like such a natural — if heavier — extension of where 7sins left off.
It’s also where his angas comes through clearest. In FELIP’s world, angas isn’t just swagger — it’s the fierce, intentional presence he brings to a stage, a photo, or a single. It shows up in the leather, the tattoos (each one carrying its own story, from tributes to loved ones to symbols of transformation and resilience), and the commanding energy that’s become his signature. “SULFUR” is angas turned into a full song.
SUPERIOR SON Is Growing From Merch Into a Full Clothing Brand
What started as drops for fans — caps, jerseys, the sold-out-in-minutes SPS rider jacket — is expanding into something bigger. FELIP has described himself as SUPERIOR SON’s CEO and designer, not just its face, and the brand’s next phase points toward complete clothing collections built around his own design sensibility, rather than one-off merch pieces. The SUPERIOR SON website is already gearing up for the drop, so keep an eye out and tune in — this collection is coming.
Clothing, Chrome Hearts, and the FELIP Outfit Formula
FELIP’s personal style has always fed directly into how SUPERIOR SON looks and feels. His off-stage and on-stage wardrobes lean into leather, silver hardware, and labels like Chrome Hearts and Rick Owens — pieces that favor proportion and attitude over anything safe. That same instinct for a distinctive FELIP outfit — deliberate, a little dangerous, unmistakably his — is what’s shaping SUPERIOR SON’s evolution from simple merch drops into a real clothing line with its own identity, built by someone who thinks about design the way he thinks about a song: personal, intentional, and unafraid to push a little further than expected.
A Bigger Spotlight: Global Stages and New Ears
And his solo work is about to reach a much bigger audience. SB19 just made history as the first Filipino act to perform at Lollapalooza in Chicago, and that kind of global spotlight has a way of sending curious new listeners digging through the group’s individual projects — which means plenty of them are about to run straight into FELIP for the first time. “SULFUR” is exactly the kind of hook that turns a casual scroll into a new fan.
Independent, Expanding, and Impossible to Miss
Between a fully independent single, a clothing brand growing into its next form, and a wave of new listeners about to discover his catalog, FELIP’s solo era is only getting louder — and every piece of it, from the tattoos to the tracklist, still traces back to one artist building his world exactly the way he wants it.
