Dubbed as Asia’s Soul Supreme, KZ Tandingan, or simply KZ, rose to prominence after winning the first season of the reality music competition “The X Factor Philippines” in 2012. Hailing from Digos, Davao del Sur, KZ’s soulful performances of her songs "Darating Din," “Imposible,” and her rendition of "Two Less Lonely People in the World," which peaked at number 2 on the Philippine Hot 100 in 2017 have wowed many through the years. Her remarkable interpretations of Himig Handog songs “Mahal Ko o Mahal Ako,” and “Scared to Death,” among others, along with her rapping skills also left an indelible mark to her supporters. But her biggest career milestone was being the lone Filipino representative in the China reality singing competition “Singer 2018,” where, at one point, she bested British singer-songwriter Jessie J.
