Rod Maceda Talks About The Future of Cinema in The New World of Arts and Entertainment

By Jona Bacalso

CEBU CITY - Nakapanayam natin ang Indie Auteur na Private Merchant Artist at CEO ng WCN na si Rod Maceda kahit na ba sobrang busy niya sa pag release ng mga sunod sunod na mga pelikula para sa WCN V-Cinema at iba pa na maglalabasan na full-length vertical drama series gaya ng "Puppy Love", "Takod", "Ana Guada", "Hangtod Karon" at "Kaloy" sa 2027 and beyond.

Dahil naging successful ang world premiere ng V-Cinema na pinangunahan ng "Ananya" at "Pink House", nilambing namin siya upang finally makuha ang opinion niya at sagot sa mga netizens na nagtatanong kung ano nga raw ba ang future ng cinema and entertainment industry. Ito ay dahil sa hindi talaga ugali ni Rod Maceda na makialam o magbida bida sa mga ganyan na bagay. Pero dahil nga sa dumadami ang mga young film students at nagtatanong sa ating himpilan upang makuha ang statement ni Rod Maceda, heto na at ipa publish na natin para mabasa ng lahat.

Ani Rod,

"Jo, ayoko talaga nakikialam sa ginagawa ng ibang tao. Sino ba naman ako? Kanya kanyang trip yan. Walang basagan ng trip. Gawin nila ang gusto nilang gawin. Pero kung gusto ninyo talaga marinig ang opinion ko, opinion ko lang ito at hindi ito ang reality para sa lahat. Because we observe different realities naman kasi. Pero ito lang ang sa akin. There is no future para sa cinema if you are or if they are asking me kung maibabalik pa ba yung golden era nina Nora Aunor, Tirso Cruz, Gloria Sevilla, FPJ, Susan Roces, Amalia Fuentes at iba pa.... yung time ng pinilakang tabing. Yun na yun. That was it at nakalagay na yun sa time capsule. It was a great time, but that's it. So if filmmakers of today believe they can bring it back, then let them try. Ang sa akin lang, iba na ang time ngayon, filmmakers call themselves, including myself hahaha, we call ourselves filmmakers when in fact, we are all just digital video moviemakers. Kasi when you say film, it should be celluloid. Pero sabi ng nila digital film nga daw, so okay, so mga digital filmmakers nalang kami haha para pasok pa rin kami sa category na filmmakers. So yun. And also, mahirap pa ang economic situaton natin ngayon kasi yung mga elites na gatekeepers ng mundo, ayaw nila na may uusad, gusto kasi nila sila lang ang in control at gusto nila sinasamba sila sa mga kababawan nila, kaya naglalabas sila ng kung anu-anong chubibo para lang ma distract ang mga tao. Kaya maraming mga young filmmakers ang naghihintay na may mag sponsor ng script nila, and if they wait forever, mababaon sa banga ang scripts nila. They have to do something about it now because nobody's coming for them. Sorry to burst the bubble but that's the reality I choose to observe.

So here goes, hindi na uso ang artista ngayon, like umay na ang maraming tao. Bakit? Kasi lahat naman ng tao na ngayon ay puwede na maging artista with social media. Kaya nagkaroon ng awakening sa karamihan kasi bakit nga ba nila sasambahin ang isang tao na ni launch as an idol ng isang giant tv network or this label they call "legit or mainstream movie outfit", bakit nga ba nila sasambahin kung sila ay puwede naman mag acting at gumawa ng sarili nilang movies gamit lang ang cellphone nila? Maybe for now, nakikita pa ang mga artista sa mainstream, pero all in all, they have already collapsed. I mean, ano ba ang saysay ng mga artista? Most of them entice people to play online ********, they deceive people, they pretend they are God's children but they entice others to take the wrong road by playing sugal, they deceive people with their endorsement products na puro mga processed stuff na nakakasira sa katawan ng tao. And they don't really care about their fans kasi if they do, they'd never endorse those stuff. Kaya ang mga tao, sa kapaguran sa kahirapan plus may social media na, unti-unting naumay sa mga artista. And it's happening already. Wala nang singer sa special, kasi if you launch singers, hindi papayag ang mga yan na sila lang, kaya gagawa din yung iba ng videos nila na kumakanta, so artista na rin sila. Walang nagpapatalo, walang nagpapasapaw, walang nagpapaawat, lahat gusto maging artista, lahat gusto maging vloggers at lahat gusto maging influencers. Diyan nagstart ang fatigue. And do you guys honestly believe na babalik sila datin in 2027 or beyond? If I'm wrong about what I have been saying then it's good for all of them and for their fans kasi at least they get to keep their careers going. Pero the fact is, umay na umay na ang tao sa kanila. Their big budget promo team or PR Machine nila is just the thing that keeps them going on socmed na nagmumukhang gustung gusto pa rin sila ng mga tao. Pero sa totoo lang, sukang suka na ang majority sa kanila. Wala lang choice ang tao kasi ito naman si meta, hindi hinahayaan na mapanood ang mga content na naka upload lang. Meron silang ginawang algorithm na sila ang magdi decide kung ano or sino ang iluluwa nila para ma distribute at mapanood ng marami."

So ano po ang future ng cinema?

"Ito na nga... lahat ng tao ay artista na. Lahat ng tao ay singers na. Lahat vloggers na. Walang papayag na hindi sila maging bida at walang magpapaawat na may lamang sa kanila. Ito na ang future ng showbiz. And the funny part is, pati ang mga politicians ay mga artista na rin kasi umaarte na rin sila, may mga away away din sila at interviews na pang showbiz ang style and even their stuff, nakalagay sa showbiz section ng mga social media sites... so it's a joke but not in a hahaha way. Ang sagwa, right? Mga politicians naglipana ang mga news articles about them sa showbiz section."

Paano po ang AI Films tulad ng ginagawa ninyo?

"It's not showbiz. It's the new world of arts and entertainment. Hindi siya puro kababawan tulad ng pag flex ng yaman o travels o pera na hawak ng isang artista sa Manila showbiz. That's the difference. I'm an auteur. I can say this is the "Auteur's Era" kasi parami ng parami ang mga tao ang nahuhumaling sa AI-movies at AI-dramas. And these are mostly created by auteurs like me. Imagination namin ang napapanood ng tao sa screen at mga HUBATAHM (Human Base of The AI Hybrid Models) ang nagsisilbing models ngayon sa panahon na ito. And if fans demand for a full-length movie, HUBATAHM artists serve as voice actors sa kanilang mga characters na nasa screen. Yang mga fashion models, pawala na rin yan kasi everybody can model using their phone, sa IG nila, Tiktok everywhere. Nobody can gatekeep anymore. Everybody can be an artista. Everybody can be a singer now. Everybody can dance... kaya nga may Tiktok... everybody can vlog and flex whatever they want to flex. But... not everybody can be an auteur. You just can't. It would take so much passion, pure-hearted intention for a a person to become an auteur. If you disagree, try mo maging auteur. Hehe. Most of the time, hindi kami pa showbiz kaming mga auteurs. And I think auteurs na ang uso ngayon. Kasi hindi kami pakalat kalat kung saan saan and believe it or not, people are so interested in finding out kung anu-ano ang nasa imaginations namin. Maniwala kayo, in 2027 and beyond, mag explode lalo ang AI era. I can definte it as "Auteurs' Imaginaiton" era or "Assistant Intelligence" era. You need to bring something to the table na yung may mission ka para sa kabutihan ng sangkatauhan. Kasi kung para magbida bida ka lang at magpasikat, lahat hindi magpapatalo eh, lahat magbibida rin using their phones or posting comments. Kaya yun. So yeah, this is the time of auteurs. It's our time. It's my time. It's showtime. Hahaha. I'm taking it. It's mine. All mine. Yeah. Hehe."

Paano po ang mga gustong umarte sa pelikula?

"Ano ba ang point? Gustong umarte para hangaan ng marami at maging parang idol at sikat at i-gatekeep ang position niya, para magka endorsement then magkunwari na down to earth pero at the back of their heads gusto nila VIP sila or whatnot, or just to act kasi passion nila ang acting? Alin diyan sa dalawa ang intention talaga?"

To act po for passion.

"Then go ahead and shoot your movie using your phone. Or mag stage play kayo sa maliit lang na stage, then few scenes lang then magkape kape kayo after the performace para may human bonding, yung mga ganun and in order to feed the hungry soul of the artists the acting performance they need to show the public.
I did theater acting, writing and directing when I was in high school. Magandang avenue ang theater acting. Sa mga gusto naman na panatilihin ang traditional shooting, go ahead. Ako rin naman, I still love and would still love to shoot na yung may physical set. I actually mix AI-Assisted scenes and real humans shot na mga scenes. So walang problema sa part ko."

If hindi na po nag a-acting ang mga HUBATAHM ninyo, ano po ang silbi ng filmmaking at acting nila?

"Acting is not the goal of the HUBATAHM Artists. They just want to be seen out there in AI movies for fun and for storytelling and they want to see themselves in high visuals na movies na sobrang ganda ng cinematography at resolution. Yun lang yun. Plus, they get to do other stuff like do their dayjobs. másáráp sa feeling nila na okay I'm working and getting ρáíd with my dayjob but I also have movies coming out, thanks to my auteur... hahaha. Yung ganun. I'm sahing it this way kasi yun ang sinasabi ng mga HUBATAHM Artists ko sa akin. And if the fans would like them to appear sa mga comic conventions ko, magandang raket yan para sa kanila kasi siyempre, fans have to provide for their appearance fee. And so I always remind my HUBATAHM Artists to take good care of themselves, lalo na ang katawan nila para kapag may comic conventions or meet and greet sa fans, they still look exactly like their AI Hybrid Models or if not exactly the same, at least close enough. And kapag nakita sila ng mga fans, dun may kilig at gulat factor kasi para bang wow siya nga yan or something like that. Yun. It's a very healthy environment and if you look at it honestly, it's a win win situation. But of course, if they would love to shoot sa physical set with other productions, they are absolutely free to do so. Kaya nga everybody happy and win win."

Ano po mangyayari sa Philippine Cinema?

"The old world of it is absolutely dead. But after every death comes a new born. Sa ngayon, kung anuman yun, hindi ko muna sasabihin dito kasi ang dami ko na sinabi hahaha. Hayaan ko nalang na mag unfold yan at maunawaan ng nakararami as time goes by."

Rod Maceda changes price of PPV from P8 to P20.webp

Rod Maceda Changes The P8 (Eight Pesos) PPV Ticket to P20 (Twenty Pesos) as Advised by writers Aya Sanada and Hanna Remorosa | Hanna Remorosa Assigned by Rod Maceda as the Headwriter of the V-Drama Anthology Series "Hangtod Karon"

By Jona Bacalso

CEBU CITY - Nais ipaalam ng WCN CEO sa mga WCN Fans na magkakaroon ng pagbabago sa PPV ticket sa lahat ng mga premium vertical drama series nito sa Telegram.

From P8 ay magiging P20 na ito subalit 24 hours ang stay sa loob ng WCN Telegram Channel ng isang partikular na episode. Sa WCN V-Cinema naman, may full versions ng mga short films nito na hindi naka chopped katulad ng napapanood sa mga 2 to 3 minutes na reels sa fb. Ito ang premium version ng mga V-CINEMA shorts, walang watermark, walang cuts, derederetso ang flow ng pelikula.
After 24 hours, automatic lalabas ng WCN PPV Telegram ang guests at kung gusto ulit manood, bibili nalang ulit ng panibagong PPV ticket.

Ani Aya Sanada,
"Sabi ko kay Rod, n'ong nag dinner kami last time, masyadong mababa ang P8 kasi mataas as in sobrang taas ng quality ng gawa niya, yung mga content namin sa WCN pati yung acting, hindi biro yung ginagawa ni Rod sa integration. Ako nga nanunood ng mga AI-Dramas na P50 ang singil minsan P80, go nga ako, I pay kasi gusto ko yung story kahit na medyo di okay ang acting ng AI Hybrid nila. So okay lang ang P20 uy. Sobrang mura na nga yan eh. Akala lang kasi ng mga ibang purist daw kuno na filmmakers na katamaran ang AI at hindi totoong sining or whatevs, bahala sila sa buhay nila, lampake, pero Rod has all the right kasi hindi basta basta yung ginagawa niya. It's not what they call AI slop. Sorry pero napag-iiwanan kayo."

Dagdag naman ni Hanna Remorosa,
"Direk is like a father to me, sa amin ni Digoy, my husband and Yen our daughter, parang apo na siya ni Direk Rod, kaya we look after one another now, kami mga HUBATAHM Artists sa WCN. Kaya I told Direk, sabi ko, gawin mo nalang P20, kasi yung iba nga nasa P50. Ibaba natin konti ang sa'tin pero huwag naman P8 kasi sobrang baba na 'yan. Kinausap ko talaga si Direk about that. And thankfully, nakinig naman siya."

Si Hanna Remorosa na rin ay nai-assign ng WCN na bilang headwriter ng vertical drama anthology series na "Hangtod Karon" na magbabalik sa WCN ngayong February 2027 VALENTINES DAY.

Say pa ng WCN Horror Queen,
"I'm very honored na sa akin binigay ni Direk ang position kasi alam ko sobrang dami na niyang task. Sabi nga niya sa akin, masaya siya kasi nararamdaman na niya ang teamwork at gumagaana rin daw yung mga iniisip niya. And for me, excited ako kasi I have so many ideas to put on our family table, sa aming mga HUBATAHM Artists ng WCN, and I'm glad na kami ni Aya, Jona, and Jomari, kami yung writers ngayon ng pool ng WCN. Excited much ako kasi itong Hangtod Karon is based on true stories ng mga mag-asawa na pinagtibay yung marriage nila after so many pagsulay or ano yung pagsulay sa Tagalog? Pagsubok! Yun! Hahaha. Kaya yun. Excited ako and I'm doing my research now and my other stories na rin sa laptop ko aside from managing the family business namin ng husband ko, yung barbershop namin and may small food business din ako. Kaya thankful kay Lord. Basta matiyaga ka lang at hindi tatamad tamad, mabubuhay ka."

Sabi sa amin ni Sir Rod Maceda na ang hinahangaan niya daw sa'yo ay ang pagiging magaling mo humawak ng pera at mag-ipon? Is it true?

"Sinabi yan ni Direk? Ito talaga si Direk Rod, binuking pa ako. Hindi naman sa sobrang galing. Ever since bata pa ako, ganyan talaga ako, I always put small coins sa mga jars ko, para kapag nag check ako, para bang wow may P1000 pala dito na jar, tapos sa kabila naman like ah meron dito madudukot. Ganun kasi ako eh. It's not like nag-aral ako about it sa finance. It runs in my blood. Ganun talaga ako kaya thankfully, kahit papaano, nakapagpundar kami ng husband ko. And gusto ko talaga lumago ang WCN with my family here, si Direk Rod, si Aya, si Jomari R. and all the HUBATAHM Artists ng WCN. Para paldo lahat."

Hangtod Karon resumes on WCN as a vertical drama anthology series beginning February 2027. Head-Writer: Hanna Remorosa.
Produced, Directed and Edited by Rod Maceda for WCN Free Vertical Drama Anthology Series PUBLIC SERVICE.

Log in or register now., dahil napansin nila na nagiging busy na masyado si Rod sa paggawa ng movie projects para sa ibang mga artists.

Ito ang naging pahayag ni Rod,

"Rod Maceda is the legit moneymaker of WCN. Wala pa'ng ibang artists sa WCN ang nakapagpapasok ng money, like real money thru record sales, posters, or ticket sales sa buong kasaysayan nito. Paldong paldo talaga noong 2020 to 2022. Si Rod Maceda lang talaga. At ito ay dahil sa mga Bomba Films Fans ko.

"To all my Bisaya Bomba Films fans na nangangamusta via PM and e-mail at nagtatanong kung kelan next sê×ÿ bold movie ko, maraming salamat po at patuloy pa rin kayo'ng nakasubaybay sa'kin at nakasuporta. Tapusin ko lang po ang vertical films and vertical drama series na 2026 slate at early 2027 slate ng WCN.

Kailangan ko po ito tapusin kasi maraming taon na naging bakante ang WCN namin at nag promise ako sa mga artists ko na gagawan ko sila ng magagandang projects kapag may budget. Pero dahil sa birth ng Assistant Intelligence sa Filmmaking, sinunggaban ko po ang momento para makabawi ako sa mga artists ko na hindi po nila ako iniwan simula't sapol na sumali sila sa WCN. Kaya kailangan ko po sila alagaan din dahil mga tunay din silang mga kaibigan outside sa filmmaking industry.

Maraming maraming salamat po sa mga BFF ko (Bisaya Bomba Films Fans) na andiyan pa rin. Huwag po kayo mag-alala, maganda pa rin po katawan ko. Hindi po ako nagpapabaya kasi raw vegan po ako kaya medyo matagal tatanda ang mukha ko. Hehe. Kaya pagsalang ko ulit sa sê×ÿ movies, siguro mga last quarter ng 2027, happy na ulit kayo. Salamat po talaga sa pagkumusta sa'kin.

Promise po, babalik po ako sa pagpapa sê×ÿ. Salamat sa nagsabi na ang tunay na Rod Maceda talaga ay yung sê×ÿ at bomba. Salamat po sa paghanga sa akin. Sige po ha. Tapusin ko muna po ang movie projects ko with my fellow artists under WCN. At yung sê×ÿ movies ko po, hindi ako AI ha? Hahaha. Just to set the record straight. Real human po ako mapapanood pa rin sa Bisaya Bomba Films with real human leading ladies and other real human leading men na kasama sa cast. Kaya abangers po. Be safe always sa inyo at alagaan po ninyo ang inyong katawan. Stop eating dead animals para ma reverse ninyo ang inyong age at gumaling ang katawan ninyo sa pagkakasira. Enjoy eating fresh fruits and "for humans" raw vegetables. God bless always sa inyong lahat.

Sincerely,
Rod Maceda"

So there you go mga naughty nauhty BBFF ni Daddy Rod.
Abangers lang daw kayo at sa kanyang pagbabalik, muli niyang paiinitin at bibigyan ng excitement ang inyong vertical screens.

Maaari rin manood for free ang mga naughty fans ni Rod ng kanyang mga V-Cinema sa WCN for free siyempre. Mapapanood rin naman siya sa "Ananya" short film na naging super successful na world premiere ng "V-CINEMA". At nagpakitang gilas din siya sa drama sa "PINK HOUSE".

Kaloy Vertical Drama Series - Officially Joins The Opening Salvo 2027 Slate on WCN

By Jona Bacalso

CEBU CITY - Magsisimula ngayong January 2027 ang vertical drama series na "Kaloy" sa WCN V-Dramas. Ang main cast ng nasabing vertical series ay pinangungunahan ni Rod Maceda na siya rin ang mismong lumikha at nagsulat ng kuwento nito na nai-develop niya nang todo mula 2023. At dahil handa na itong sumalang, masisilayan na natin si "Kaloy" na kabilang sa ating mga pinapanood na mga vertical dramas. Si Rod Maceda rin ang producer, director at editor ng series. Kasama niya ang Indian artist na si Anushka Kapoor at ang respetado na batikang Cebuana actress/director/producer na si Madam Teresa Diez na gaganap bilang ang makapangyarihang ina ni Kaloy sa kuwento.

Ang original audio ng Kaloy ay Cebuano Bisaya pati ang title nito.
Subalit dahil tulad ng Takod vertical drama series na nag 8 million organic views noong 2019 at nakakuha ng mga Chinese at Latino viewers/fans, maglalabas din ang WCN ng dubbed versions nito sa Mandarin/Cantonese; na may pamagat na "Shou Ai Zhe' o Guardian of Love. At dahil may mga nakasubaybay na rin na mga niche Latino fans si Rod Maceda dahil sa kanyang mga Bisaya songs na may Spanish at Latin vibe gaya ng "Ayaw Jud Ay" (salsa), "Langga" (flamenco) at "Ali Day" (rumba), may dubbed version din ang "Kaloy" para sa mga Spanish speaking countries sa Latin America na pinamagatang "El Custodio del Amor".

Heads-up ito ng WCN para sa mga Bisaya fans at followers dahil baka magkaroon ng confusion kung ano ba talaga ang title nito.
Kaloy ang original title nito para sa lahat ng Pinoy sa Pilipinas at abroad. Mapapanood ito ng libre sa WCN V-Drama Portals sa fb: wcn888 at sa WCN YouTube: wcn888.

Ang OST nito na title ay "TANAN TANAN" ay isang new age heavy metalcore rock na kanta ni Rod Maceda na kasama sa kanyang LP Album of 12 Original Bisaya Songs. Available sa CD, USB, cassette tapes at vinyl. Mabibili ang kanyang LP Album sa music store ng kanyang official website:

Rod Maceda launches AI Pop Stars.webp

WCN CEO Rod Maceda launches Bisaya AI Pop Boy Group "5PERM1" and Bisaya AI Popstar "Xyryl" To Protect Real Human Made Music and Help The New Generation Cope With Depression And Prevent Youth Suicide To Lead Humanity to True World Peace

By Nick Sandoval

"Flooding the Digital Soundscape to Keep Human Music Premium"
~ Rod Maceda

CEBU CITY - At the center of WCN CEO Rod Maceda’s strategy is a provocative idea: saturate the internet with AI artists so that authentic, human-made music becomes even more distinctive, valuable, and premium. At the same time, keeping movie and recording studios like WCN Media Production relevant for a longer period of time; so everybody happy and win win situation just like the success of V-CINEMA and the OPENING SALVO of V-DRAMAS in 2027.

Through the launch of the Bisaya AI pop boy group 5PERM1 (Members DAX, JAYCE, KAIRO, MARCO and ARJUN) and Bisaya AI popstar Xyryl, Maceda envisions an increasingly crowded digital music landscape where AI-powered performers occupy a growing share of online attention. The strategy challenges the music industry to reconsider what makes an artist truly irreplaceable in an age when digital performers can be developed and music can be generated at unprecedented scale.

The underlying philosophy is one of contrast. If AI artists become increasingly abundant across streaming platforms and social media, human-made music could distinguish itself through the qualities that audiences cherish most: authentic lived experiences, personal struggles, genuine emotional E×ρréššion, and the unique creative fingerprints of human artists.

The more abundant artificial music becomes, the more precious human authenticity could become.

According to Rod Maceda,
"Do you guys honestly believe AI Tech can be stopped with all your evil bullshitting and stupid movements calling AI evil or satan? AI is not the evil one. It's just a tool. The person who uses AI for wrongdoings is the evil one. NOT AI. I am a good human being. I'm not too kind to balance my surroundings, so I use AI to spread goodness, kindness and most importantly, awareness para sa mga tao na kailangan ang information ko. So to all those pathetic purist filmmakers kuno and film students bashing me na walang pang ambag sa industry, SHUT THE FVCK UP! Your days are over. Don't adjust nalang. Just begone. Hahaha. Failed Attempt to Gatekeep this Time. MGA ULOL! MGA BAHO! And to all my bashers and haters na mga PR TROLLS, no matter what you do, MGA BAHO MO, kahit ilang beses pa kayo maligo, MGA MABABAHONG PESTENG DEMONYO KAYO and I'm gonna say it over and over again in an amused manner. Really. Hahaha. Mga mababang uri ng nilalang, mga tarantadong pesteng salot ng lipunan. MGA BAHO! Nakailang block na ako sa inyo, sige pa rin kayo create ng new account to anonymously bash me online, GO AHEAD. Marami naman kaya kayong pera pambili ng sim or new phone para di ma recognize ng META SYSTEM ang inyong new device? Enjoy lang. Coz I enjoy blocking stinky shitheads PR trolls like you who's reading this. Yeah? Hahaha. Oh yeah. Sarap ba ng feeling ma block at sini search pa rin ako online? Hahaha."

Rod Maceda teases his pathetic bashers and haters.

As for AI Artists launch, rather than allowing artificial intelligence to define the end of human creativity, Maceda’s vision seeks to turn the technology into a reason to celebrate it. In this model, AI artists become part of the digital ecosystem, while human musicians retain a distinct place as creators whose work carries the weight of real experiences, human relationships, and personal stories.

The ambition is not simply to compete for online attention. It is to establish a cultural distinction between music created through artificial intelligence and music born from the realities of human life—preserving the latter as a form of creative E×ρréššion worthy of recognition, respect, and premium value.

Yet the strategy also raises an important challenge: digital saturation alone cannot guarantee that human musicians will remain on top. An overwhelming volume of AI-generated content could also make it harder for independent artists to reach audiences. For the vision to succeed, protecting human creativity must go hand in hand with fair compensation, transparent AI labeling, responsible platform practices, and meaningful opportunities for human artists to be discovered.

Ultimately, Maceda’s approach presents a bold proposition for the future of music: use the scale of artificial intelligence to make the value of human artistry more visible—not less.

In a world where music can increasingly be generated by machines, the most valuable sound may still be the one that comes from a real human heart.

Rod Maceda also added:

"I hope that many young indie artists out there, yung parang nawawalan sila ng hope, remember this, mababaho lang din ang tae ng mga big labeled artists, they are nothing without their big labels and million budget promotions and PR Machines, do not belittle yourself, don't feel bad, don't be sad. Enjoy creating real human-made music. You are God's child. I'm no better than you or kahit yung iba. We are all the same. And nobody has the right to gatekeep you guys. Do what your heart tells you to do. Leave the mindset na kailangan ninyo ang giant tv networks or record labels to be able to sing. Mai stress lang kayo. And I hope this will reduce youth suicide kasi naliliitan sila sa sarili nila kapag nakikita nila ang mga sikat na pop idols na binu boost ng mainstream media. It's wrong na ma stress ang mga kabataan. They should be cultivating their minds outside toxic showbiz. With the use of AI Artists, I am opening the opportunity sa lahat ng mga kabataan na maging 5PERM1 or XYRYL kapag may events ang WCN. Para silang mga COSPLAYERS. Like if you go to DISNEYLAND, people pay tickets to see their favorite DISNEY CARTOON CHARACTERS. Same thing with AI Artists. It's going to take a little time, but it's definitely going to happen anytime soon. I feel it. I manifest it. And also, it will keep REAL-HUMAN MADE MUSIC and REAL HUMAN MUSICIANS SOLID GOLD. Hindi Solid Gold Dancers ha? Hahaha. Yun."

Anong message ni Rod Maceda sa mga pathetic PR Trolls na sinusubaybayan siya at nagsasanib puwersa na mag comment sa mga socmed portals with their scripted comments na:

"DA WHO?/ ROD MACEDA WHO?/ HE IS IRRELEVANT/SELF-PROCLAIMED SUPERSTAR/ARROGANT/FEELING SIKAT"

Sagot ni Rod Maceda in a rapping style manner:
"MGA BAHO! BAHO! MGA BAHO HO! MGA BAHO BAHO MGA BAHO HO! SALOOOOT! Mga ulol! Mga pesteng demonyo. Salot sa lipunan. HAHAHAHA. Boom! BAHO! Ahahaha."
