With its wide curation of talents, Def Jam Philippines is recapturing new sonic territory, while building on already established acts. A new signee to Def Jam Philippines, Tiffany Lhei follows up a string of viral hits with another banger featuring fellow Def Jam Philippines signee DonWilson. True to the times, Tiffany Lhei’s ‘Sorbetes’ embeds itself in youthful romance. But more than that, the young emcee weaves a story filled with wisdom.

Tiffany Lhei makes her voice known with an upbeat energy that doesn’t miss a step throughout the whole song. More than her musical prowess is a voice that isn’t afraid to go all out.

It’s interesting though that ‘Sorbetes’ in many ways is a love song. ‘Sorbetes’ doesn’t dwell on the pulling of heart strings or the innocent virtues of puppy love, but instead on the virtues of patience. ‘Sorbetes’ explores the pitfalls of modern relationships and provides a roadmap to avoiding these pitfalls in the same breath. This is to say that the song does not waste its time in expressing where it stands.

Young as she may be, Tiffany Lhei exercises caution, and in doing so, shows that she’s wiser beyond her years. In the chorus, TIffany Lhei declares, “Sundan mo ako sa tamang daan, balang araw tayo ay magkakaalaman (Follow me in the right path, we will find out the truth in time).”

Fall into the trappings of its catchy melody, but also pay attention to the bars: Tiffany Lhei is setting the tone for her fellow youth with ‘Sorbetes’.
