DLSU swim team really is going no where; looks like Enchong and Ixxie are the only silver linings. A sad state considering where we were 5 years ago na double champs. Thanks to those who updated us with results and pictures namely jan carlo, danavila and orangersey, your updates are far more informative than what some sportswriters contribute.

For his part, Enchong Dee can’t sing to save his life—but, let’s get this straight, his self-titled debut album is a triumph of technology more than a testament of his singing ability.
For the most part, the compilation banks on the innovative skills of the creative minds behind it, in this case arranger RB “Kidwolf” Barbaso.
Barbaso assembles provocative beats that effectively drown out Dee’s negligible trills, especially in the otherwise fun-filled “Tambalang OMG,” which the actor performs with the similarly “digitized” Alex Gonzaga.
Dee turns wishful thinking into musical reality—and the result is a repertoire of expendable jingles (“Seloso,” the self-penned “Isip o Puso”) that rely on Barbaso’s sizzling arrangements, most impressively in the enthusiastic reworking of VST & Co.’s “Step No, Step Yes.”
“Chinito Problems” introduces an innovative treat by mashing up Jed Dumawal’s melodically appealing hooks with a sampling of the jaunty hit single, “Chinito,” spruced up with Yeng Constantino’s gorgeously amped up and high-pitched vocals!

Pokwang was followed by Kapuso actress Carla Abellana and Kapamilya heartthrob Enchong Dee.
"The colorful Brazil portion was inspired by exotic birds of the Amazon, according to designer Val Taguba. The most action-packed segment featuring accidental porn star Katrina Halili and young heartthrob Enchong Dee." ('Bench Uncut': It's a tradition!', CHUVANESS By Cecile Van Straten, The Philippine Star, July 7, 2010)
“When Enchong Dee made his entrance at this year’s Bench Universe show, he owned the night in no less than an aerial canoe, looking every bit the gladiator with his toned body and feisty stance.” (Metro Magazine, November 2012)
