My Mom Reacts to 'MAPA' by SB19 

We appreciate all the love and kindness we received in our last video ❤Thank you for recommending this to us :)

Your mom is so precious, she cried instantly when she heard the word “mama”. I bet she’s really a good mom

Pablo is so smart using MAPA with a lot of meaning. MAPA(MAMA(mother)PAPA(father) , MAPA(MAta(eyes) and PAa(feet). In short our mom is our eyes when the surroundings is starting to change and our dad is our feet who's guiding us in our life. our parents is our MAPA(map) in our life. Thanks for reaction. 🥰

This song became the favorite Graduation song on many schools in the Philippines. Tribute to parents for their undying support and care to their children. 🏆🤩

It's just refreshing when you see a full-grown man expressing his love for his mom without being embarrassed. And this quality every woman should be looking for in a man.

Pablo is an excellent lyricist. Mapa is a masterpiece.

they created this song during the pandemic when they were away from their parents. all of the boys are such loving sons as what we can see, they really are a true living testament of the message of this song helping their parents out now...giving back to them. proud fan here!! thank you for appreciating our boys. 💕💕

kudos to you sir Max for showing this song to your mom, and i know for sure that your mom raised you very well always take sir and godbless to you and to your mom😇

I cried like a river the moment your mom started to cry. All of the SB19 boys are the best example of loving and grateful sons who love their parents and family. They said that they are working hard for their families. That is why they are role models for the whole world.

5:22 you know what? The member who sang that line about papa, is Josh, who also never met his father and live only with his mother and sister. Sending hug for you guys 💙

I am estranged from my abusive and neglectful parents and this song makes me cry too. This song makes me see from the point of view of someone who actually had loving parents, so I can at least imagine what it's like.

My mother died two years ago due to Chronic Kidney Disease and my sister took care of her while I was working abroad to send money for her treatment, until the last moments, my sister took care of her. Now, I'm here in the Philippines working, my sister and I are with Papa, he's 62 years old but in God's mercy, he is always happy even in the midst of trials.We promised mama before she passed away that we would take care of Papa. Thank you very much Mom and Dad for the love you showered on us.

Papa lines is being sang by Josh wio also grew up with no dad...but Papa not exactly pertaining to your real dad...that could be ur uncle or anybody that took the shoes of your real dad..it can be ur mom too that stands by u as mom and dad❤️❤️❤️

Mapa=ma(ma) &pa(pa)parents Mapa=(ma)ta eyes &(pa)a feet Mapa=map What a strong message for us Meaningful Beautiful ❤❤❤ thank you Pablo and Sb19

The mere word of saying “mama” does invoke an emotional reaction to the person saying it. As well as saying the word “papa”. These are not just words to call your parents but they are deeply endearing, soothing, and a very gentle word to say.

JUST by this song, I could easily say, how great and beautiful PABLO's heart is. Let's face it, not all would write this kind of song. Most, having a hard time just to say or express how they feel to their parents. And this song, somehow, a way to let tour parents know how you feel about them.. SB19 never fails to express what feeling should you feel for the song they are performing. Their emotions are so contagious, wether it be a hype, a banger,or a love song. They will put their listeners ' into that very moment. They are so passionate. SB19 is A GREAT STORYTELLER!❤

I began following SB19 while taking care of my 96 year old dad for his final years with us. I watched this song over and over through reactions of people of all ages all over the world. Your mom's reaction is normal! Just a little background, Ken, with the low voice was raised by his Grandparents as his parents chose to work overseas to provide for their family. He had only seen them a few times in his life. Josh,who sang the Papa part, was raised by his mom and never met his dad. He finally met his half siblings but sadly it was to late to meet his dad. This song is dedicated to any parent figure that helps to raise children! This is a very different group! Every SB19 ballad is emotional and special! The lyric video was designed by Justin, the youngest member and creative director of the group. Might I suggest the Wish USA bus performance, with English subs to get to know the actual members! After that Nyebe is another beautiful song. The official visualizer has English subs.

Hi, Max! You mom is correct. MAPA is the combination of "Ma" (mother) and "Pa" (father), at the same time it means "map" in our language. The title itself implies that our parents are our life guide. The song is indeed a wonderful piece made by Pablo, and the beautiful voices of the other members added more flavor to it. I'm glad that you and your awesome mom appreciated it. 😊

This song made me cry so hard. Unfortunately, my mom died from cancer before she had the chance to finish her map for me. This will always be a missing part in my life. She died when I was 18 years old, now I'm 56. I'm grateful for SB19 to come into my life, I love these guys so much. So please enjoy your time together.

So sweet, her reaction was so genuine❤❤❤ This song is like story telling our (Filipino) culture; Great respect and gratitude to our parents.

You know what Max, the first few lines of the “father” verse is sang by Josh and he is just like you. He had no relationship with his father and if I remember it right, he doesn’t even know him. So, you can imagine the courage he needed to muster to sing those lines without breaking down. That’s why we A’tin genuinely love the boys because of their life stories. Their talents are just icing on a cake. Hugs to your mom for making her cry. 🤗💕

Thank you for reacting to this wonderful masterpiece and watching SB19's legendary talents. Having your mom tear up on the first note got me. I'm happy to see you watching this with your mom... you may not have a father figure, but you have your MAPA sitting beside you, she's your ma and pa in one.❤❤❤

I hope everybody appreciates the word play in this song... The title is MAPA. In Filipino it means, a map. Our parents are the maps that guide us in this world. But, it's also short for... Ma (Mom) and Pa (Dad) And in the lyrics... the Ma (mom) is the MAta (or eyes), and the Pa (dad) is the PAa (or feet) Eyes and feet that guide us through life. So beautiful ♥

Wow! Your mom and me did cry to the intro. Hahah! ❤😂 yep! I am a mom of my three beautiful children. 🇵🇭😊 Cheers to us mothers!🥰🥂🙏

Pablo is the SONGWRITER not only the LYRICIST.. he creates both the melody and lyrics..

It’s actually a perfect song for both of you to react to because it serves as a conversation piece for the parent and the child to be open to discuss how they feel for each other when, otherwise without it, some might find it difficult to sort of get the ball rolling. This song never fails to make me emotional, as well, it’s a certified classic and will always be relatable to everyone who listens to it. 💙

I am not really a fan but these lyrics pierced my heart and soul. Truly moving, inspiring and at the same time, goosebumping...

Dont worry max, josh also who sang the papa line doesnt know his father but he delivered the song full of emotion.

don't worry, mommy. you're not the only one. a lot got emotional with this song. i think a lot of people resonate with the song that's why it gained a lot of views. here in the philippines, it has become a trend in graduation programs for graduates to perform this song as tribute to their parents.

In this rare occasion that you can open up to your parent like this, it just shows how important music is and the message it relays to people. I am glad you had a great moment as mother and son. I'm glad you enjoyed this song though it's a tearjerker.

Makes me cry, "Mom, how are you?" I'm a mom also, asking me those words makes my whole world crumble. It hard to be a mom, at the same time I'm the happiest. I just can't fathom the words

Oh, wow! Never expected you would do this so soon but I am glad you did. And your mom already cried after only listening to the first line. That was something else. This song was born out of a laundry room when they were quarantined together during the Covid 19 Pandemic. They were missing their families so much and Pablo asked them what would they like to say to their parents. This was just a heartwarming tribute not just to their parents and guardians but to all our loving parents who sacrificed so much for us. This song is a staple during graduation ceremonies and even weddings. Just a little backgrounder. Josh sang the Papa part and he was so brave to take it in as he and his sister grew up without knowing their dad. They were raised by a single mom and became so poor he became homeless by age 15. Ken grew up without his parents. They were living in a far flung province and were so poor his parents decided to work in Malaysia, leaving him and his sister in the care of his grandparents. His grandfather and father are both pastors so Ken grew up in a Christian church and that's where his musical talents got honed. Every time he has a chance during interviews, he is so proud to say that he is a Pastor's kid and grandkid. When they had their first online concert, Ken was crying when he was singing his part because he was missing his family so much. He only got to see his parents twice at that time, once when he was 5 yrs old and once when he was 1st year college. Towards the end of the song, the other member's parents and families went out the stage. Ken was smiling and so happy for them, only to be surprised when his sister and uncle appeared. He then fell on the floor and cried so hard. This was the boys' surprise for him, knowing how much it will mean to him. They said they were all nervous Ken might see them beforehand as they were staying in the same hotel. I am so happy that they have become successful as the road they took to reach where they are right now was never easy. They faced so much difficulties and the one reason they pushed thru was their families. And in spite of all the success, their feet remained firmly on the ground and always looks back to their humble beginnings. Hopefully, you can also watch with your mom the live version of MAPA on Wish Bus USA. They sound better singing this live and it's English subbed as well. Thank you for sharing this with your mom. I hope we can see more of her in the future.

Woahh did'nt expect you would drop another SB19 reaction this fast 🥺, thank you so much Max ✨

I'm glad you like this songs " MAPA' the messages indeed are powerful ! Because of this song I admired SB19 originality of making each songs they made ! Finally SB19 received lot of recognitions International . They are very humble and each of them have a unique talents , you'll be surprised ! We appreciate your time and kind words !

You two have such a beautiful relationship. Love you guys.

This song means so much to us, Filipinos especially A'tin. This hits me so hard as my father is undergoing medication, fighting cancer. My eyes always get emotional when I hear this song and thank you for appreciating our boys. 🎉❤

In the Philippines, we don't put our older parents in the nursing home, just as our grandparents if they are still around. They live in our homes too. The one who sang the tribute to the father is Josh - he grew up without knowing his Dad. It's important that he accepts this, so Pablo let him sing that part. Music is really universal, messages about parents makes you cry. Thank you for reacting to this widely listened SB19 song. Let your son find a Filipino girl and she will love you too like she loves her Mom!!!

Thank you for reacting to this MV. I appreciate how you and your mom are able to really articulate your thoughts and feelings. It is also nice to see you bonding with your mom. Appreciate your sharing this moment with us. There are lots of double meanings in SB19 songs. Many listeners enjoy picking them out as they go through the lyrics of SB19 songs. I'm sure you will, too, as you go down that rabbit hole. Looking forward to your next RV on SB19.

That's the Filipino culture, we take care of our parents especially when they get older.

Aaww.. crying on the first word, Mama after the "Lataratara"( lullaby).. seeing you reacting with your mom is such a precious moment❤ Mapa also means "MAP" in english that's why the visual is map. There's a line "i will not be lost anytime for i brought the map, wherever i go i know where i came from" If you still have time to react with your mom, this song is more emotional when they sing it live.. there's Wish bus USA and also they sang it with their parents-full of emotions everyone is tearing❤ Thank you for this..

Pablo's lyricism and Justin's creativity for the lyric video is everything. As a whole SB19 delivers this song so well that made millions of people cry😅. SB19 lyrics and music are top notch and full or sense, substance and inspiration. Thank you for this RV with your mom. ❤

MAPA is for sure a lasting tribute to your mother who raised you well. It's a precious moment to see a mother and her son reacting to this endearing song of SB19. Lots of love from the Philippines.

Their song is so much magical . I do appreciate you guys honored Sb19 music.

Actually, the video is a story itself. From the paper boat which we enjoyed playing during childhood to the paper airplane representing adulthood when we go to faraway places but always coming back home. MAPA (our parents) also translates to map that will guide us wherever we go. Also our moral compass so we won't ever get lost. 😊

Thank you for appreciating our Filipino artists. As Pablo said, music is universal that is why it moves us deep when we hear music like this. Grateful for all our parents out there!

i cant stop crying while watching this mom and son bonds..i wish my parents are alive and with me right now❤

Your mom is gorgeous I can't imagine how she looks like during her prime😊

Thanks for this rv Max, you and your mom are brilliant. Love your genuine reactions. I got teary eyed the moment your mom cried, even how many times I've watched this vid. It still got me wiping my tears. This is one of the songs that would definitely make me emotional every time I will listen to it. Thanks SB19 much love to you MAHALIMA 💕

Im so touched with your mom's reaction. She is so nice and a good mom to you, a loving one. Pablo writes songs to also promote the Filipino culture and music. As you can see in the lyric video, we Filipinos are family oriented. We do take care of our elders when they grow old that's why home for the aged not very usual here.

Moms reaction makes me cry like a river

This reaction video has become one of your bonding moments with your mom. One for the books indeed. Thank you for sharing this precious reaction of you and your mom to SB19's MAPA. ❤ much love!

I’m 52 and i lost my mom last year and each time i hear this song i just cant stop crying…

I am so grateful coz my children really expresses their gratitude,recognition,and love for us even if we are not the perfect parents they wanted to have

what a beautiful, lovely bond you have w/ ur Mom, so emotional ❤.Thanks for this great reaction..

Genuine reaction of a mother😊😊😊😊 God bless, New subscriber overseas Filipino workers in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 😊❤

The song started, and we could see your mother's LOVE for you right away: She truly does love you.

You are so special and a strong woman maam, you have the best mom sir max 🙌😊 godbless you and your family, sending love from philippines ♥️

So sweet, her reaction was so genuine❤❤❤

Mapa Ma- mama Pa-papa Mapa tagalog words mean map.

I heard this song a hundred times already and I consider this song as a promise to my parents that I will get to that point where I can tell them to rest and let me do things for them but I cried again watching your genuine reactions. Pablo asked the members what they wanted to say to their Parents/ parent figures and He is fond of wordplay. Your Mom was right that this song is for Mama and Papa and MAPA means Map, because they are our guide in life that's why we'll never be lost. Justin, (creative director) showed here that a parent's job is 24/7 that's why there's a sun and moon on the map. Like you, Josh who sang the Father part never met his Dad but still slayed his part. Thank you for appreciating them and Please watch their wish bus performance with CC on. Thank You in advance, May You and your Mom create more beautiful memories together 💙💠

from ph 😍 we all happy for you having wonderful mom ❤️❤️

That was a beautiful songs dedicated to parents that makes me emotional everytime I hear that song.

Awww, this is a beautiful RV with your mom ❤

Josh sang the “dad” part and like you he does not have a relationship with his father. He grew up without a Dad. This was so beautiful. You made me cry!!! 🥹

I cried the first time I heard this song. I can relate much.. My parents aren't working anymore and I am working overseas for them.. This song never fails to make me cry..

The best gift you can give to your parents are your time and love. You have a very beautiful mom ❤

If I remember correctly, Pablo assigned the Papa line to Josh specifically despite being fatherless bec in a way he also now stands as a father-figure to his family (mom & sister) ❤❤❤

I feel you mom everytime i heard this mapa i cried so hard my mom past away when i was young and this songs remind me how i miss her so much,thank you and Godbless Seeing you crying i cried too

I like what you said there, "The music that I love the most are the ones that moved me." Being Filipino, we acknowledged the sacrifices our parents did for working so hard to give us the best life, to get education, everything. And now that we are able to stand on our own, we'd like to repay (for the lack of terms) by taking care of them in their old age and see to it that they got everything they need. It is emotional because it's a taboo for us to discuss such things with our parents, we just do it. That's my opinion.

You two are making me cry too. I've cried many times to Mapa too. I already watched a lot of times. Thanks for appreciating our Mahalima.

The lataratara part is actually taken from a common lullaby our moms used to sing us when we were babies :) and your mom is right MAPA means mama and papa but also means MAPA (filipino term) as in MAP that's why the video is more of map representing the guidance our parents provided, the life map.

It clicked in my non filipino brain that MAPA also means map in Tagalog(?), so with the lyric visualizer being an old fashioned map being navigated....wow l...gotta admire the genius of SB19...great reaction RV too Mom & Son!❤💪

You have a beautiful mom.

A very meaningful & touching Filipino song🙏❤️❤️❤️

Whether you're a son, daughter or parent, anyone can relate. So touching.❤️

Watching from Edmonton, Alberta...because if this song I'm gonna visit my dad who is going to be 93 yrs old on April. I haven't visit him since 2019 and i miss him.

I love my mother..❤️Love your mother..

I’m crying from the start of the video..this song never fails to make me cry 😭 I miss my Mama and Papa

Thank you once again for your reactions to our beloved SB19’s MAPA. I knew you’ll love the song and its simple meaning. It touches all of us when we talked about of our parents. Just watching you guys’ reactions made me cry too…haha😉. More power to both you and your mom😇🫰.

Your relationship with your mom is so beautiful! The song is so fitting.

I'm Filipino and I sent this song to my Mum last year. Seeing your mom's reaction right when the song started is so sweet. Please give her a hug for me!❤

Pablo is a genius song writer. Always capture the hearts of the listeners. I actually started to follow and listened to their songs when I heard the MAPA and all the meaning that they wanna convey with the title. Pablo thought about all these and it made me a solid fan of their group especially pablo their genius leader. ❤ Thank you and to your mom for reacting to the song. I’m sure you made your mom proud as well. ❤

MAPA is the most viewed RU-vid video of SB19 with almost 100 million views. ❤❤❤

Josh who sang the father part is a father less one he said he never met his father the whole time of his being nevertheless he was able to give justice on his part on this song he even ask Pablo to give this part to him maybe as a selfchallenge😊

You have a lovely mother

Ik you made your mom proud❤

Amazing..SB19 PPOP Philippines boy band🇵🇭👌👍
