Among these are tracks with Yeng Constantino, Karylle and Akiko Solon. The latter is Alay, or offering, a song about unconditional love that is ideal for this Christmas Season. It is accompanied with a music video that began airing in late November 2011.[6] This made a mark of idea to fans about the concept (of his second album) in which being distant from his 2009 album, Ready Or Not.

The album in this new recording label is extra-special for him as it presents the listeners everything that he can do as an artist."We worked on it for a year and we basically did a lot of styles of music that the youth and young adults will surely appreciate–from hip hop, R&B, acoustic, house, and more. And through it, I was able to shows my different emotions," according to Young JV.[1][7] Further, he is a stickler for writing original music, unlike some of his fellow artists, who are doing remakes of classic OPM hits. He also added when he is writing a song, “two to three week-long process.”[8]
