'Surprise!': JK Labajo admits 'Ere' inspired by ex Maureen Wroblewitz

MANILA, Philippines — Kapamilya singer JK Labajo admitted that his hit song "Ere" was inspired by his breakup with ex-girlfriend Maureen Wroblewitz.

In a report by ABS-CBN, JK said that the song was obviously inspired by his heartbreak caused by the beauty queen. 

"Kung hindi obvious, ewan ko na lang!" JK said. 

"Well, I'm not really hiding anything, it's a super given thing that the whole thing was for a breakup. 'Ere' is one of the songs that I made for my relationship that ended, so that’s it," he added.

The song debuted at the No. 177 spot with 1.22 million streams then occupied the No. 58 spot on Spotify Top Songs Global.

"Ere" also broke the all-time record for the biggest single-day stream on Spotify Philippines with 1.39 million streams, surpassing American popstar Taylor Swift’s "Mine."
