Wanting to end the mystery behind his viral song, "Hawak Mo Ang Beat," DJ Mogo (Sylvain Hernandez, a French national) has revealed the singer behind the song, which became popular mula Aparri hanggang Jolo.

In an online show, DJ Mogo introduced Shane Reyes as the singer behind today's most popular song.

Reyes is so common-looking that no one will give him a second look. He's so ordinary looking, he does not stand out among the sea of people. To some, he's a nobody.

In the online show, Reyes performed "Hawak Ko Ang Beat."

Before "Hawak Mo Ang Beat," Reyes was a struggling singer, doing cover versions for the likes of Air Supply, April Boy Regino, Bon Jovi, Bee Gees, Ted Ito, and — don't raise your eyebrows — Lady Gaga..

Interestingly, DJ Mogo did not provide a video of Reyes' recording of "Hawak Mo Ang Beat," sparking speculations online that this is because it was AI (artificial intelligence) generated.

But in a past interview, DJ Mogo denied online chatter that he used AI in composing the popular song.

Many were also asking why the likes of Jessica Soho and Korina Sanchez did not feature DJ Mogo for his famous song. Or why Reyes wasn't even asked to perform live for ASAP, It's Showtime or even Eat Bulaga! if he's really the singer behind the song which captivated the entire archipelago because of its simple lyrics and upbeat tempo.

Admitting he was the guy in the controversial sex scandal now making the rounds online, TikTok personality Jayden Fernandez stressed that he does not have the consent in making the video scandal viral.

In his TikTok Live, 25 April, Fernandez, a model and online seller of underwear confessed: “Hindi ko po binigyan ng consent iyong pagkalat po ng private stuff na 'yon (I did not give my consent to the spread of that private stuff)."

He unabashedly admitted that he did it when he was still single.

“I admit po, before nung single po ako… I tried things out of curiosity," he said and he was sorry he did it as it was only now that he learned the consequences of his past mistake.

Almost pleadingly, he asked netizens to spare his girlfriend and his family from the issue.
