YouTube, the country’s favourite video platform, released the most popular music videos, trending videos, and content that entertained the Philippines in 2024. YouTube has taken the place of television in the Philippines as people use the well-known streaming service for their daily video entertainment. They watch music videos, vlogs, how-to videos, and other types of content. YouTube has compiled a list of the Philippines’ top trending YouTube videos, music videos, and creators for the year.
With 20 million views in the first category for short videos, Filipino content creator Esnyr’s captivating romantic comedy short, “Highschool Heartbreak Experience,” is at the top of the trends.

According to Mervin Wenke, head of communications and public affairs at Google Philippines, “the fact that OPM artists like BINI dominate the music videos list and local creators like Esnyr are trending shows how deeply YouTube resonates with Filipinos.”
“It’s where individuals connect with what’s important to them, find new trends, and celebrate their hobbies,” he continued. As the new television, YouTube has become a hub for Filipinos looking for inspiration, knowledge, and amusement.
In 2025, YouTube videos will continue to entertain Filipinos and provide a platform for creators, musicians, and other content producers.
