Harrie Abel Makes His Mark with "Get Up" Cover: A Filipino Artist to Watch

At 20 years old, Harrie Abel is already beginning to make his mark in the music world. The Filipino artist, hailing from the Philippines, has caught the attention of listeners with his cover of NewJeans’ popular track “Get Up.” While still early in his career, this fresh and talented artist is quickly gaining recognition for his unique vocal style and the emotional depth he brings to every performance.

Harrie’s journey into the music world was never about seeking fame; it was about finding a way to connect with people through his voice. His rendition of “Get Up,” a hit single by the K-pop group NewJeans, is a perfect example of his approach to music. “I’ve been a fan of NewJeans since their debut,” Harrie says. “Their music has this perfect balance between fun, upbeat energy and deep emotional connection, and I really relate to that.”

It was this connection to NewJeans' music that inspired Harrie to put his own spin on the track. But rather than simply replicating the original, Harrie sought to create a version that felt true to his own experiences and artistic identity. “I didn’t just want to cover the song” he explains. “I kept the original vibe, but I added my own flavor to it. I wanted my voice and my style to shine through while staying true to the essence of the song.”

The result is a cover that has captivated listeners with its smooth vocal delivery, catchy melody, and emotional depth. Harrie’s voice stands out for its warmth and sincerity, delivering a fresh take on the R&B track.

This cover is not just a musical experiment for Harrie; it’s a reflection of his growth as an artist. Over the past few years, he’s spent countless hours refining his craft, learning to balance his influences with his personal style. The challenge, he says, has been finding a way to remain true to his artistic vision while also delivering something that resonates with listeners. “It’s a delicate balance,” Harrie admits. “I want to stay authentic to myself and my music, but I also want people to enjoy what I’m creating. The goal is always to connect.”

Though Harrie is still at the beginning of his career, he already knows the value of hard work and persistence. His success with “Get Up” didn’t come overnight, and he’s quick to acknowledge the struggles of being an independent artist. “It’s tough,” he shares. “You’re up against so many other talented artists, and getting noticed is always a challenge. But for me, it’s not about being the biggest or the most famous. It’s about creating music that speaks to people and sharing that with the world.”

One of the things that sets Harrie apart from many other up-and-coming artists is his strong sense of identity and his focus on authenticity. While many new artists are eager to chase trends and emulate what’s popular, Harrie has stayed true to his vision, carefully curating his sound while maintaining a genuine connection to the music he creates. “I think the key to standing out in this industry is staying true to yourself,” he says. “If you’re not being authentic, people can tell. I want my music to reflect who I am—not who I think I should be.”

As he continues to build his career, Harrie is already looking ahead to what’s next. “I’m working on some original music, and I plan to release it soon,” he reveals. “But I’m taking my time with it. I want everything I put out to feel right. I want my music to connect with people and to tell a story that’s meaningful to me.”

This drive to create music that resonates with listeners is what fuels Harrie’s ambition. Though he’s had success with his cover of “Get Up,” he understands that the road to building a lasting career is long. But he’s ready for the challenge. “I know it’s not going to be easy,” he admits. “But I believe in myself and my music. I’m committed to growing as an artist and learning every step of the way.”

Fans of Harrie can expect more from him in the coming months. He’s eager to continue evolving as an artist. “I want my music to be something people can relate to,” he says. “At the end of the day, it’s all about making a connection.”

For now, Harrie Abel’s cover of “Get Up” has put him on the map, but this is just the beginning. With his undeniable talent, passion, and commitment to authenticity, it’s clear that this young Filipino artist has a bright future ahead.
