Danny Tan's Throwback #173
Soul Control, a German duo, gained fame through their 2004 single CHOCOLATE (Choco Choco), which was in the top 5 of the charts in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and released in over 40 countries. Julie Anne San Jose, Rita Daniela, Vanessa Rangadhol, Pocholo Bismonte and Renzo Almario, collectively known as SUGARPOP, performed this in one of the episodes of Pop Star Kids Season 2 which was later included in their debut album SUGARPOP released by Sony-BMG Music in 2007.
BACKSTORY. After the Grand Finals of Pop Star Kids Season 1, I aspired to prolong the careers of the four losing finalists - Julie Anne, Vanessa, Renzo and Pocholo. I was convinced that it would be just a waste of their talents if I left them alone to fend for themselves. I broached the idea of forming a teen singing group (to also include the Grand Prize winner - Rita Daniela Iringan) with Ms. Wilma Galvante. She gave me permission and entrusted me with full artistic control over the group. I asked Ms. JAYA to help me think of a suitable name. She came up with SUGARPOP! I loved it! I asked Ms. Darling de Jesus-Bodegon to consider adding SugarPop to the roster of SOP's talented performers. At that time, Ms. Darling was forming an all girl trio and an all male quartet for a new musical segment on SOP. A teen group (SugarPop) would be a perfect fit for La Diva and You've Got Male. The rest is history: Three Of A Kind musical segment became an instant hit!
