We are so excited to welcome AJ Rafael, a talented singer-songwriter and a Youtube pioneer who has amassed over 1 million subscribers on YouTube and 1 million monthly listeners on Spotify.

A Filipino American game changer, AJ dives deep into his relationship with music and the healing effects music had in processing and honoring his late father’s memory. At the heart of his artistry is also community or kapwa and a way for listeners to get in touch with the universal and restorative potential of music.

Since the height of his popularity, AJ has broken into the music industry while embracing the strengths which set him apart: the heavily underrated DIY-savvy hustle which proves how a genuine love for connecting with others, no matter what medium or discipline, can lead you to a grounded sense of empowerment and purpose.

For OG fans and new listeners, check out this episode for a behind the scenes look at his upcoming Take Me Back Tour!
