The Nation’s Girl Group, BINI, is officially kicking off its fifth-anniversary celebrations by putting the spotlight on their loyal fans, the Blooms.
Ahead of their milestone anniversary on June 11, the P-pop powerhouse launched “BINIVerse and Chorus,” a first-of-its-kind 10-episode reality competition series that premiered on May 21 on iWant and the iWant YouTube channel.
The new series follows an unprecedented wave of global success for the eight-member group, consisting of Jhoanna, Aiah, Colet, Maloi, Gwen, Stacey, Mikha, and Sheena. Following their recent groundbreaking performance at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and a string of sold-out international concerts, BINI is returning to their roots to honor the strong bond they share with their community.
“BINIVerse and Chorus” gives Blooms a direct hand in shaping BINI’s musical future. The members have personally reviewed over 300 demo entries submitted by fans, each featuring only a verse and a chorus.
Throughout the series, viewers will get an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look into the girls’ creative process as they evaluate, debate, and whittle the submissions down to a Top 12. From there, the group will narrow the selection to a Top 8, which will then be opened to public voting. The winning track will have the distinct honor of potentially becoming BINI’s next official single.
Since their official debut in 2021 after training under ABS-CBN‘s Star Hunt Academy, BINI has transformed from rising rookies into a certified P-pop phenomenon. Their infectious hits like “Pantropiko” and “Salamin, Salamin” have captured mainstream audiences both locally and globally.
“BINIVerse and Chorus” acts as both a thank-you letter to the fans who held their hands along the way and an exciting peek into the group’s evolving artistry. Back-to-back episodes stream for free every Thursday and Friday on the iWant app and official YouTube channel.
