BINI continues to break barriers in their career, earning the “Best Asia Act” award at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards (EMA) on Monday (Philippine time). The P-pop sensation outperformed strong competition from South Korea’s ILLIT, Indonesia’s Mahalini, Malaysia’s MASDO, and Japan’s Sakurazaka46.
This prestigious win adds to the excitement leading up to their highly anticipated “Grand BINIverse” concert series at the Araneta Coliseum from November 16 to 18. The event is set to feature a star-studded lineup, including Regine Velasquez on November 16 and 17, and performances by Gary Valenciano, Maymay Entrata, and Vice Ganda on November 17 and 18.
“We’re so thankful for winning the Best Asia Act in this year’s MTV Europe Music Awards,” said BINI Jhoanna in a heartfelt message shared on MTV Asia’s social media. BINI Mikha added, “We hope we can keep sharing our music with you and that the world can discover more of Filipino music.”
Expressing their joy, BINI shared in a social media post that the award “means the world to us, seeing Filipino music shine on the global stage.”
Earlier this year, BINI showcased their growing international presence with a historic performance at KCON LA in July. This achievement follows their first solo concert, “BINIverse,” held in June at the New Frontier Theater. The 2024 MTV EMAs marked a return after a hiatus, as the 2023 event near Paris was canceled due to geopolitical tensions.
