Performing topless about half of the show, the one-time Grammy winner for Best R&B album turned the concert venue into a dance club with a mix of his new songs and old favorites.

FEATURED STORIES

Included in his setlist were Loyal, Wet The Bed, With You, Strip, Take It To The Head, Turn Up The Music, and the hugely popular Forever.

“This is my only my second time in Manila but you know I love my Filipinos,” he told his adoring supporters, which, coincidentally, included a bunch of popular local celebrities.
