The Philippines' Rock Princess Yeng Constantino is at it again. The first rock school in the Philippines, The Academy of Rock from the pioneers Jeremy Ward of Rockschool UK, Charles Lim and Priscilla Teo of Academy of Rock in Singapore recently awarded our Princess of Rock the First Asian Artiste in Rockschool Exam Syllabus Honorary Diploma. We have witnessed Yeng's excitement at the opening of The Academy of Rock in Powerplant Mall in Rockwell, Makati last night. Yeng went to Academy of Rock in Singapore to perform and receive this prestigious award that also motivated her to learn more at The Academy of Rock now in the Philippines.



Her Honorary Licentiate Diploma from The Academy of Rock in Singapore is just another laurel up her sleeves as she continues to gain more recognition from her efforts reliving the spirit of rock in the country. We have all known her as the Pinoy Dream Academy's first grand Star Dreamer sweeping the nation with her number one hit "Hawak Kamay". Four albums and a long list of chart-toppers including her newest album, Metamorphosis, Yeng continues to improve her craft by collaborating with the Academy of Rock Philippines. She said that she wants to learn how to play drums and more instruments so she can create more music.



She had not just become Philippines' female rock icon because she continues to spread the power of OPM to all teens being active in social media sites like Facebook and Twitter. She may have not completely absorbed it when I told her before that she had completely gained a name and a music genre of her own. I am really loving her song, B.A.B.A.Y. as it speaks my heart as of the moment. The Academy of Rock founded in 2006 is open to all ages who has passion in rock and popular music. With their unique teaching setup that goes beyond that of a traditional music school, more children and young-at-heart passionate in music will love learning lessons on electric guitar, electric bass guitar, pop/rock vocals and drums. It's never too late to learn at The Academy of Rock because they are open to all ages. Congratulations Yeng!
