⭐️NOT KIDS ANYMORE

We’ve seen them grow up. We’ve watched them evolve. CLOUD 7 aren’t kids anymore.

From playful trainees with big dreams to one of the most promising young names in P-pop, CLOUD 7 has entered a new era — louder, bolder, and more certain of who they are.

The seven-member Filipino boy group under Jhay Layson and GMA Sparkle first captured attention as one of the youngest P-pop groups in the Philippines. Inspired by the idea of “Cloud 9,” their name symbolizes happiness, while the number seven proudly represents the bond shared by its members: Lukas, Johann, Kairo, Egypt, Migz, PJ, and Fian.

But beyond the synchronized choreography, catchy hooks, and viral performances is a group growing up in real time.

Over the years, fans — lovingly called Rainbows — have witnessed CLOUD 7 transform from energetic rookies into artists with distinct personalities, evolving styles, and deeper musical identities. From their early digital singles Tara Na, Tayo Na, Louder, Silipin Ang Mundo, and Bara-Bara to the release of their 2026 single SIX7, the group continues to prove that they are more than just the Bagets of P-pop. They are artists finding their own voices.

And if there’s one thing that stands out about CLOUD 7 today, it’s individuality.

C7 K-Drama Lover

Known as “Jo” or “Aki,” PJ is calm, artistic, and a self-proclaimed night owl who loves hoodies, indie rock, and emotional K-dramas. His music taste ranges from Bruno Mars to IV of Spades, perfectly matching the vibe of his favorite series such as Lovestruck in the City, At a Distance, Spring Is Green, and Love Revolution.

Describing his personality as “character,” PJ effortlessly blends mystery with cozy comfort. During his downtime, he enjoys Japanese and Korean food, mango desserts, and coconut water.

C7 Old-Money Vibes and Avocados

Kairo is the group’s minimalist. He could happily survive on avocado treats and endless samgyupsal while dressed in his signature old-money-inspired style influenced by Polo Ralph Lauren.

His smooth and soulful playlist includes artists like Daniel Caesar, Bruno Major, and Luke Chiang. A future architect at heart, Kairo admits he can’t live without his eyeglasses — otherwise, he wouldn’t even be able to clearly see the Rainbows cheering for him on stage.

C7’s Next Top Model

Fian brings fresh energy to the group with his cool and confident style, often wearing his favorite color, sky blue. With his natural charisma, he says he would probably pursue modeling if he weren’t an idol.

He looks up to Miguel Tanfelix and admires the aesthetics of SB19 and Cortis. For Fian, fans are more than supporters — they are the reason the group continues to fight for their dreams.

C7 Rob Deniel Stan

J is the definition of chill. He carries an effortless energy that feels relaxed, grounded, and easy to be around.

A huge fan of Rob Deniel, he keeps YakapSule on repeat and enjoys watching Avengers: Endgame. Johann also loves burgers, fashion pieces from Balenciaga, and climbing — something he jokes he would probably pursue professionally if he weren’t an idol.

C7 Kewl Pokémon Fan

Migz is full of fun and chaotic energy. He spends his late nights listening to R&B or watching Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon.

He describes his style as simple but “kewl,” much like his favorite clothing brand, BNY Jeans. While he jokes about his hidden talent of burping endlessly, Migz is always serious when it comes to showing love and appreciation for the group’s fans.

C7 Future Chef with a Spider-Man Responsibility

Gypt is confident, funny, and unapologetically real. When he’s not performing on stage, he can usually be found experimenting in the kitchen. In fact, becoming a chef is one of his biggest dreams outside of music.

A huge fan of the Marvel universe, Egypt especially loves Spider-Man films. Beneath his cool and confident persona is someone who simply loves seeing crowds cheer for the group. For him, nothing feels more fulfilling than watching people genuinely happy during their performances.

C7 Leader Who Loves Rainbows

Lukas may look “tuff” in his streetwear, but he has a huge heart for the Rainbows. When he’s not vibing to hip-hop music, he’s probably staying up late playing on his PS5.

For Lukas, performing is all about sharing the stage with his brothers and hearing fans sing along. His personal motto — “Malayo na pero malayo pa” — reflects both gratitude for how far they’ve come and excitement for the dreams that still lie ahead.

Growing Up Together

CLOUD 7’s journey has never been just about music.

It’s about growing up under the spotlight while discovering who they are both individually and as a group. Each member brings something different — humor, softness, confidence, chaos, calmness, artistry, and leadership — yet together, they create something uniquely their own.

They are no longer just the “youngest” P-pop group. They are becoming artists with stories to tell, identities to embrace, and dreams growing bigger every day.

And through every stage, every comeback, and every scream from the crowd, one thing remains unchanged: 

Rainbows are growing up with them too. #CoolisinSession #CoolStarSection
