SB19 — composed of Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken and Justin — has once again solidified themselves as a P-pop powerhouse after surpassing one billion streams on Spotify.

The quintet’s new milestone was announced on their social media platforms on Tuesday, Jan. 20, with the group expressing their gratitude to their dedicated legion of fans (known as A’TIN).

“1 BILLION STREAMS ON SPOTIFY ACROSS ALL CREDITS. To everyone who listens to our music: you are the reason we keep creating. Thank you to everyone who has pressed play and shared our music across the globe,” they said.

“We truly couldn’t have done any of this without our A’TIN, who have made our music a part of their lives. We did this together, and we’re just getting started! Keep streaming our music and stay tuned for what’s next,” they said.

The five songs listed on the group’s Popular list on Spotify are “DAM,” “DUNGKA!”, “Time,” “8TonBall” and “Quit,” with “DAM” having 59,780,606 streams as of this writing.

SB19 is coming from the high of their “Simula at Wakas” world tour, which included stops in the US, Canada, Taiwan, Singapore and Australia, to name a few. They also performed at the Asia Artist Awards’ ACON Festival in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, last December. 

One of the quintet’s upcoming activities for 2026 is their “Wakas at Simula: The Trilogy Concert Finale” concert at the SMDC Festival Grounds on April 18. They also teased a new song in the works, which is speculated to be about the Philippines’ passport strength and visa status. /ra
