Andres Mangabayo is strumming his way into the global spotlight, with a cowboy hat in one hand and a punchline in the other. Today, the up-and-coming Filipino Ai created singer-songwriter and master of musical mischief releases his debut single “I Lost My Pants in Cebu City”, available now on all major streaming platforms via OtticMusic / Pretty Bear Recordings.
Known for blending Southern twang with slapstick charm, Mangabayo delivers a fresh take on country music with a signature Filipino flavor—and just the right amount of embarrassment. Inspired by a “deeply personal and highly visible” wardrobe malfunction during a budget airline trip to Cebu, the song tells the harrowing (and hilarious) tale of a Makati yuppie turned viral sensation after one unfortunate breeze turned him into a local meme legend.
A Taste of the Lyrics:
“From classy guy to walking shame / Just one slip, now I’m a meme with fame…”
The track combines slick acoustic guitar riffs, toe-tapping rhythms, and a wildly vivid narrative full of sushi dinners, perfume from Paris, and Channel 2 news appearances. But it’s the catchy chorus—anchored by the unforgettable line “After a lot of people see my butt, I only want to die”—that’s soon sparking online singalongs, parody videos, and a rapidly growing fanbase.
About Andres Mangabayo:
Born and raised in neural network but polished in the skyscrapers of Cebu City, Andres Mangabayo is redefining OPM (Original Pilipino Music) by fusing country storytelling with the wit of Filipino comedy. Think Kenny Rogers meets Vice Ganda—if they both wore cowboy boots and had a deep mistrust of belt buckles.
Whether you’re into catchy choruses, cultural collisions, or just need a laugh, Andres Mangabayo is the country star you didn’t know you needed—until now.
