If we come up with a special list of artists truly deserving of whatever title they've been christened with, lady singer Sitti will be high on the list considering how she has kept her stronghold of the music niche she's associated with. Bossa Nova Queen is a title firmly right for her. In Tagalog lingo, sakto.
"Sakto," a song co-written by Itchyworms drummer and main songwriter Jazz Nicolas, and Wally Acalola, is something she found to be "so cute and beguiling and innocent" that she hopes it “grows on people and becomes a favorite," perhaps in the same vein as her signature hit "Para Sa Akin."
That's the title of her new single, too, being dropped Friday by Icons Music, a division of Widescope Entertainment. One of the most important Filipino acts to come out during the first decade of the 21st century, Sitti has always been thankful of how well her career has panned out. She tries her best to give back by staying true to her calling and her image."With every song I am blessed to perform," she noted,"I try my best to approach and infuse it with my truth.
