When asked if music has healing power, she did not hesitate:
I believe that. Super, super, super!
She explained that in every era of life, she uses music to experience it more. When she is happy, she plays happy songs. When she is sad, she plays sad songs, and she hears them in a new way depending on what she is going through. She said it also reminds you that you are not the only one going through something.

It is the 4th Grand Annual Concert of RMA Studio Academy, a three-hour show on November 5, 2026 at the Proscenium Theater, Rockwell Center, Makati. The program has over 30 songs, and 48 student performers will sing solos, duets, trios and band numbers, backed by a 25-piece Philippine Events Orchestra led by Dr. Lester Delgado.
The celebrity students include Ina Raymundo, Michelle Dee, Scarlet Belo, Pepe Herrera, Rhian Ramos and Jema Galanza. Soprano Jade Riccio will also duet with a surprise celebrity guest, and yes, it is still a secret.
Why does the RMA concert matter?
Part of the proceeds will go to Autism Society Philippines to support inclusive education. Five ASP scholars will perform alongside the RMA students. Rhian calls the academy a "safe space" for people who love to sing, and said the coaches train her before any live performance.
What will Rhian perform?
She is keeping it under wraps. What she did share is that her coaches recently taught her how to rap in Spanish, and she said, luckily, the pronunciation is close to Filipino.
Why her answer hits home
We all have that one song that gets us through a breakup, a hard month, or a long jeepney ride home. Rhian's point is simple: you can use music to feel what you feel, without hiding it.
